The Goody round shampoo brush is also a must for grooming! It is easy to hold (for me, easier by far than a curry type brush), gets the job done and is easily cleaned by 'bumping' it on any hard surface to 'lift' the hair. A nail file also works when you've gotten it so full that it won't take any more hair. I love this little brush so much that, after looking for it for almost a year, I bought SIX! Try places like beauty supply and barber supply and in the aisle where people hair grooming products are sold.

This brush was made and designed for people, but I'm tellin' ya: It is GREAT for dogs and I'm guessing may also be the cat's meow!

Pros: helps with shedding, great for coat and skin, hand friendly

Cons: hard to find & buy
