We have a dog who just hates to be brushed. She gets all hyper over it. We bought one of these, hoping she wouldn't realize what was happening, but it didn't fool her. It might be a lot more relaxing for another dog.

Pros: Should make your dog feel calmer

Cons: Doesn't work for every dog

This is a nice product for grooming. It does not work well for dogs with thick coats.

Pros: pets seem to enjoy

Cons: not for thick coated animals

This is a great idea for cats or dogs that don't like to be brushed or combed. They think you're petting them, while you're actually able to remove excess hair. It's not as effective as a traditional slicker brush, but most animals tolerate it much better.

Pros: Works while petting, inexpensive

Cons: Can be difficult to clean

My cats don't run away from this like they do the brush, and it's gets TONS of loose hair out of their coats. It's a lot easier to clean the hair out if it than with a brush, too. It's great!

Pros: Removes tons of hair, easier than brushing

Cons: None

This glove is great for brushing skittish dogs. It's very calming and does a great job cleaning up fur.

Pros: gentle

Cons: none
