Coastal Pet Safari Dog De-Matting Comb - Serrated Stainless Steel Grooming Tool for Dogs with Medium to Long Hair - Keeps Coats Smooth & Soft - One Size

While this isn't meant to replace a good grooming, it does pretty well inbetween cuts. I have a dog who gets matted quickly and no tool or brush has helped until I got this. It cuts apart the matt by slicing it into thin strips which can then be brushed out fairly easily. As I said, it's not perfect but it does help a lot. One thing to be careful of though are the razor sharp blades. I cut my finger the first time I used it. You need to stay steady and focused, making sure to keep your hand/fingers out of the way. Also, don't dig it into your pets skin. It comes with instructions so that makes it clear. As long as your careful this can be a very valuable tool for you and your pet.

This is a wonderful comb. I spoke to a groomer bc my large long haired dog had a horrible matting problem and she said this was the best tool to get. It has worked great to get rid of the mats on my Great Pyrenees.

What a great tool! Removing mats has never been so easy. So glad I bought this.

While the device seems well made it did not work for my dog. I found the blades to be too far apart in between the next blade so it doesnt get out any mats that are present. While it didnt do what i needed it to do, i thought it was well made and study

I have two poodles with very different hair. My 14-lber has coarse, thick curly hair. He looks like a sheep. Trying to brush his hair is like trying to brush a sheep, and when I shave him, it comes off in a pelt. Admittedly, he does not get brushed a lot, because it's a very difficult job, he's extremely wiggly, and when he doesn't want something done, he flips onto his back and puts his mouth on the tool. He's naughty.I bought this tool as a means to try to start doing a better job grooming him. He has a very long, very cool looking top knot, but it gets soooo tangled, so my hope was I could shave his body and use this dematting rake on his head. It turns out that this tool kept me from having to shave his entire body. I used a slicker brush for as much as I could, and then I switched to this tool. I had to start out shallow, and go deeper with each pass. The amount of fur that was flying out of his haunches was insane. He was very patient, and stood there and let me use this thing on him. Eventually, I was able to use a slicker and then a greyhound comb on him, since this thing got through those knots with absolute ease.A word of caution though is that it is very very sharp. I had taken the cover off, and I got distracted for a second, and I must have run my finger across one of the tines, because the next thing I knew I was bleeding. Make sure when you clean out the hair, you do it from the back side of the tines which are not sharp! happy grooming!

Works great, I use it on my Pyrenees who get matted. Works best if you make a sort of wave motion with it and don’t yank straight back

Great brush!! Use it on my doodle to get her tiny matts outI use the slicker brush first and a metal comb but those don’t get the tangles out like this!

I have a standard size white poodle and I live in northern Minnesota. I let her coat grow out during the winter and spend hours combing her out and don’t feel like I get to her skin. This comb changed the game. I combed her out in a half hour and she looks good. It was amazing and I wasn’t pulling her hair or skin.
