Riley & Rex - Self-Cleaning Pet Slicker Brush
Description du produit
TL;DR: The Riley & Rex Self-Cleaning Pet Slicker Brush is a fine-bristle grooming tool for cats and dogs that lifts loose fur, tangles, and undercoat, then releases collected hair at the press of a button. Available in Blue and Grey, it's built for quick, low-mess at-home grooming sessions.
Regular brushing helps reduce shedding around the house and keeps your pet's coat looking healthier. The fine bristles on this slicker brush work through the topcoat to reach loose undercoat hair, while the one-touch self-cleaning button retracts the bristles so trapped fur lifts off cleanly.

Who is it for?
This brush is a practical pick for dog owners who want a simple, low-effort way to manage shedding and light matting at home. It also works well for cats that tolerate slicker-style grooming. If you're specifically looking for deshedding brushes for horses, this tool is designed for cats and dogs rather than equine coats, so consider a horse-specific grooming tool instead.
Do slicker and deshedding brushes hurt dogs?
When used gently and at the right angle, a fine-bristle slicker brush should not hurt your dog. Keep strokes light, avoid pressing the pins hard into the skin, and work through tangles in small sections rather than pulling. If your dog has sensitive skin or heavy mats, shorter and more frequent sessions are kinder than one long brush-out.
How to use it
Brush in the direction of hair growth using light, even strokes, starting at the shoulders and working toward the tail and legs. When the bristles fill with fur, hold the brush over a bin and press the self-cleaning button to release the hair, then continue. Two to three sessions per week is a reasonable starting point for most coats, adjusting as needed during heavier shedding seasons.
