Discount TrueBlue Moisture Rich Conditioning Crème 12 Ounce


This is just the product that I have always wanted, to give my hard-to-groom dog a salon-style finish at home. I always love the terrific smell and the beautifully shiny, smooth coat that Princess has after a visit to the groomer. But to save time and money (and to spare her the trauma of a salon visit), I often bathe her at home. Now with this TrueBlue moisture rich conditioner, the final results are even better than with the groomer! The scent is great (not so artificial and perfumey)and her coat is shiny and soft PLUS Princess is happy to be bathed in the comfort of her own home!!
Thank you TrueBlue...

Cheapest Waterless Pet Bath Enzyme Coat Stain and Odor Remover, 24-Ounce


Maybe I'm just stupid but my Amstaff bitch has white markings around her neck and the prong collar leaves grey stains on it. I tried using this to get it off and it didn't really work. Blah.

Cheap Resco Nail Trimmer - Regular


We prefer the 'guillotine' style of claw clipper for our five cats as it is less likely to shred the claw and does a neater job of removing the tip. We also find it easier to use than the 'scissor' type clipper, but be sure to get some replacement bladess, otherwise you will begin to shred your cat's claws.

We've been using the Resco brand trimmer ever since our Humane Society friend clued us into the product. It's a very sturdy clipper and the blades are easy to replace--just don't remove the two little screws like I did before reading the directions--the blade just pops out.

I have two dogs, one a hundred pound German Shepherd with BIG, HARD nails. I have bought numerous pairs of nail clippers in all price ranges, and so far these have been the best.

DVM Tearless Shampoo by DVM Pharmaceuticals (12 oz) This instant


I got a sample of this from somewhere, tried it, and it is really tearless. Not only that, it smells very pleasant, not obnoxiously like perfume, and makes my dog's fur (Shih Tzu/Lhasa mix) extremely soft, even without conditioner. So, if you can manage to get your dog into the bathtub, I highly suggest you try this stuff!Get more detail about DVM Tearless Shampoo by DVM Pharmaceuticals (12 oz).

Lentek Ionic Waterless Pet Bath and Massage Brush Immediately


I kind of regret buying this brush because my 10 weeks old golden HATES the vibrate. She HATES the noise and she runs away from the brush whenever I present it before her. If I keep brushing her with it she would bite and bark, which is a good indication of irritation.
I also have problem getting the hair off the brush because I can't get the plate with all the hair tangled together off the comb (the plate should be easy to take off, but appearently it's not!). It's just awkward and useless. Afterall I spent $40 for a normal comb and am unable to use the full out of it. A waste of money.Get more detail about Lentek Ionic Waterless Pet Bath and Massage Brush.

Single Row Undercoat Rake with Rotating Pins Best Quality


Have been using a straight comb to groom a persian. After trying this tool, I'm giving up the straight comb as it builds up too much static electricity, undoing a large part of the work I have just done. The rotating pins let this rake move through her coat much more easily and without the static buildup. Now I'm in the market for a smaller version of this same tool since it's really a little big for this particular cat.Get more detail about Single Row Undercoat Rake with Rotating Pins.

OK, I bought this last week and we got it today. Don't waste your time! The things can't cut through butter! They look and feel sturdy but they could not get through out dogs coat and it kept freezing. We just got out our human clippers and finished the job. Will be sending back. We brushed the dog out really well before using and it still did not work. I think we will have to spend an additional $50 to get the real thing. Trust me... look for something better!

IVS Quick Bath Pet Cleansing Wipes for Cats (10 pack) Right now


A friend recommended these. I bought them for my older cats who were having trouble washing themselves, and whose fur was getting an oily feel to it. They are simple to use. You just pull out one damp tissue (which is all you need for one cat), and stroke it gently down your cat wherever he or she is oily or soiled. It has aloe in the tissue, has a nice scent, dries quickly, and leaves the fur very soft and clean. The cats don't seem to mind too much, and if they lick the treated fur it doesn't seem to bother them at all. So it seems to be a safe formulation.

The only downside is that the package doesn't really reseal properly after you pull one out. So I simply place the bag inside a small baggie that seals. Then the package can last a long time.Get more detail about IVS Quick Bath Pet Cleansing Wipes for Cats (10 pack).

Lowest Price Halo Cloud Nine Herbal Shampoo for Dogs and Cats, 16oz


I've used this for my cat who has skin allergy issues and it has helped her out and leaves her smelling great. I also used it on 4 week old rescue kittens that were infested with fleas, after 2-3 baths in this they were completely flea free and their coats were very shinny, fluffy and soft.

Discount Andis 23175 LightSpeed Animal Clipper


I've been shaving two cats for many summers now - you'd think it would have occurred to me to buy pro-grade clippers rather than get a cheap set every year that had to be replaced after one use. Not to mention, the cheap clippers would always take anywhere from 1-2 hours per cat. By the end of it, each cat would cry and squirm like a child on a 5-hour road trip. It finally occurred to me that, as a kid, I'd seen people shearing sheep on TV. The sheep have much tougher & thicker fur than cats do, but those clippers would strip the fur off in a manner of seconds - I decided I would find those clippers and pay whatever the price.

Fortunately, I didn't have to look as far or spend as much as I'd expected - I found this clipper set online, read the reviews and put in the order. What a pleasure it is to shave those cats now. It takes 10 minutes (where it used to take at least 45) and it glides through thick cat hair like a knife in warm butter. I've only used it once - time will tell how long it stays effective, but I think as long as I follow the basic maintenance instructions it should last for years.Get more detail about Andis 23175 LightSpeed Animal Clipper.

Cheapest Dogmatic Careful Clipper Guillotine Style


I found the light a little helpful for the white/clear nails on my dog. However, 4 of my dogs nails are black, and the light did not show through them at all. So, if your dog has dark nails, the light will not be of much use at all. The clipper was powerful and cut through my dog's really tough nails.Get more detail about Dogmatic Careful Clipper Guillotine Style.

Buying Miniature Poodle Dog Grooming Instructional How To DVD Video and Equipment Guide


This is the best grooming video for poodles I have seen so far!!! This video goes over EVERYTHING I wanted to learn and a lot more! I couldn't believe how thorough it was! Also, I loved that she used a white dog, so that I could clearly and easily see the lines on the dog's fur. She was very friendly and caring with the dog too, and she anticipated any questions I may have had and answered them perfectly! The video was very clear and easy to understand. I can't believe that I am actually grooming my little girl at home now! Thank you so much for this wonderful product!!!

I use this for all kinds of organic stains including stains from food spills. It works for pet accidents, blood, and vomit. I have tried other brands, but, so far this is the best.

I keep a gallon on hand, and I use a spray bottle to dispense it. I also sometimes add it to laundry.Get more detail about SIMPLE SOLUTION STAIN/ODOR REMOVER 1.5 GALLON.

This product really should be marketed for poodles, bichons ect. The amount of pins and the spacing is perfect for perfet blow out without damaging coat. I show poodles and bought one of these brushes and every poodle friend I have that I let use this brush they MUST have one. These people have been showing poodles for years without knowing about this brush. Unfortunately they are getting harder and harder to find. This site is the only one I have seen advertising it.

Shop For Super Pet Small Animal Pro-Slicker Brush


I got this brush for my two guinea pigs. As the last reviewer said, it does not catch all of the loose hair/fur. The whole reason that I purchased this was so that it would grab all of my piggies' loose fur so that they would shed less. It did not accomplish the job. I think that the bristles are just too far apart to do the job. The product itself is free of defects and seems to be of decent quality materials.Get more detail about Super Pet Small Animal Pro-Slicker Brush.

Midwest Plywood Grooming Table with Arm 36x24x30 inch Top Quality


When I decided to groom my cocker myself, I thought I'd go the economy route and build my own grooming table, but when I found this product I determined that this would probably cost no more. It is also much better than a homemade product would have been. The table is foldable, portable, and well built. The top is covered with rubber, which keeps my doggy from slipping around on it and seems to make her feel fairly safe and secure. The arm is properly adjustable to many heights and the noose is also adjustable and works well. It's a good product at a good price, and I highly recommend it.Get more detail about Midwest Plywood Grooming Table with Arm 36x24x30 inch.

Isle of Dogs Coature No. 18 Black Coat Evening Primrose Oil Dog Shampoo, 1 liter This instant


I have been a professional groomer for 38 years. I purchased, since they would not give out samples at the dog show, two 8.4 oz bottles to try. All of us, after washing the third dog had hands that were red and raw. All the dogs coats were dry and dull and as the owner, had so many customer complaints that on my day off I had to go back in and rebath all the dogs in the old shampoo. I have since found a wonderful line called Nature's Specialties that has a very large selection for any breed or coat dog or cat. Isle of Dogs is nothing but hype and both bottles were returned.Get more detail about Isle of Dogs Coature No. 18 Black Coat Evening Primrose Oil Dog Shampoo, 1 liter.

Master Grooming Tools Pet Nail Grinder Kit Best Quality


After using a battery-driven nail grinder that delivered a disappointingly weak grind on my boxer's thick and long nails, I bought an wall-socket plug in grinder hoping for more power and increased efficiency to do the job. The Master Grooming Nail Grinder performed better, but still took about a minute on each nail, and would slow or stop with out adding much pressure. I expected a stronger and faster grind that it delivered. This grinder would perform well with dogs that have smaller and shorter nails that a typical boxer or large dog.Get more detail about Master Grooming Tools Pet Nail Grinder Kit.

Save Evolution W6109 Grooming Undercoat Rake with Rotating Teeth, Single Row


I will admit, when I pulled this thing out of the box I wanted to throw it away. HOWEVER, it actually did a really good job. Here is what the packaging says and which I would agree with after using it:

This undercoat rake will gently remove mats and loose undercoat without removing the other hair. This item is especially suited for breeds with thick, heavy coats, and breeds with an undercoat.

Example Breeds: German shepherds, poodles, pekingese, shetland sheepdogs, keeshonds, old english sheepdogs, terriers, pomeranians, schnauzers.

I have three very different dogs. One smooth coat dalmation - short, needlelike outer hairs with very little soft fuzzy undercoat. One wire coat dachshund - wirey outer hairs with plenty of soft undercoat, her hair is about 1 inch long right now after being shaved recently. One long coat yorkie - his hair is about 1.5-2 inches long right now.

This rake really will do nothing for smooth coated breeds, for them I recommend getting a curry comb. And if your dog's hair is less than one inch long you will see minimal results. However, I was plesantly surprised at how much hair it removed from my yorkie. And he is very sensitive but didn't seem to mind this rake. I think the rotating bristles don't pull as much and I think it is perfect for detangling before using a Mars Coat King.Get more detail about Evolution W6109 Grooming Undercoat Rake with Rotating Teeth, Single Row.

Order Spotless Paw®


Twelve paws across three adult and active german shepherd dogs. One modestly sized back yard. Three months of regular mid-west rain in the Spring. Mix well, and what you have would feel right at home from just about any alligator you might pull out of a Florida swamp.

Perhaps I'm embellishing, but if so it's not by much. We dread mud this time of year. We try to fight it off by keeping a canvas tarp on the floor by the back door, we keep reseeding hoping to restore as much grass and root as possible, and we have Soggy Dog Towels ready to go inside and out to clean the monkeys up as much as possible. While those are great for the bodies, they never quite addressed the issue of paws and pads. This glove does, however, and it does a remarkably fine job of breaking down mud, and absorbing liquids. It can handle all twelve paws even on the worst days, and even then we only have felt the need to run it through the washing machine once a week.

Could only be happier with it if we had three more.Get more detail about Spotless Paw®.
