Dog Palm Pad – Bristle

Dog Palm Pad – Bristle

Some pets love it and others loathe it but grooming your pet is vital to helping them to remain both healthy and clean. It is also an exceptionally good bonding activity. To aid this a long lasting, safe and sturdy palm pad is essential. With this pad your pet can enjoy/tolerate hours of quality grooming.

Ancol’s dog palm pad has been designed to remove loose hairs resulting in a healthy, smooth coat for your pet. The palm pad has soft bristles to gently groom your dog and is also ergonomic to aid grip, comfort and flexibility for the groomer using the adjustable hand strap.

The dog palm pad ensures a gentle grooming session and can be used on both short or long haired coats.

The manufacturer recommends the following instructions for use:

To use, affix the pad to your palm securely, ensuring the bristles point upwards from your palm. Using a natural, stroking motion, gently brush the hair in the direction of the fur growth. The soft bristles will pull away loose hairs and smooth the coat. To ensure your dog has an enjoyable grooming session, do not push the bristles into the dog’s skin. Pause or end the grooming session if your dog becomes agitated.

Grooming tips: Grooming is a wonderful way to bond with your dog, but dogs that are new to grooming should be introduced to it slowly. Begin grooming sessions when your dog is relaxed, if possible, after they have exercised. Use tools gently and avoid tugging on the skin or on knots or mats. Give plenty of reassurance throughout the grooming session. Pause or end the grooming session if your dog becomes agitated or shows signs of stress. Keep grooming sessions brief to begin with, and increase the length of the sessions as your dog becomes used to grooming.
