Grooming is an important part of the bonding process you and your pet share. Not only does it bring you closer together, but it also helps keep their coat clean and tangle free. This is especially true for pet parents that have pups with long or thick hair. If live with a breed that is known for their long locks or dense coat then a dog rake is a must-have for your grooming kit. Undercoat rakes for dogs have specially designed teeth that strip the dead hair and the shedding undercoat while leaving the top coat undisturbed. Using an undercoat rake prior to or during bathing usually helps reduce shedding so you can keep those fur piles contained.

Undercoat rakes for dogs are available in a variety of tooth sizes and measurements; you will want to be sure and choose an appropriate width for your pup’s coat. Generally, you should pick a dog undercoat rake whose teeth roughly match your pup’s hair length. If the dog rake’s teeth are too short, it won’t be as effective, while longer teeth might irritate your pup’s skin. Petco has a wide selection of undercoat rakes so you can choose the one that is the most appropriate for your pup’s hair. It’s important to remember when using an undercoat rake for dogs to apply minimal pressure and brush in the direction of your pooch’s fur.
