Chris Christensen Big G Slicker Brush

Curly and doodle coats: the slicker to buy once and keep. The Big G has the closest pin spacing of Chris Christensen's Big G, Big K and Big A slickers, set in a flexible cushion pad, so it lifts curls from the root rather than skimming the top, which is where doodle coats felt first. It comes in three sizes; the Large suits the body of most medium and large dogs, and the smaller ones reach legs and armpits. It costs several times a supermarket slicker. The trade-off is a long handle that is easier on the wrist over a long session. Use light, patting strokes: pressing any slicker into the skin can cause brush burn.
