Place the brush at a shallow angle. Move with coat growth, not against it. Work in short sections. Apply light pressure and steady strokes. Start at the back and move forward. For mats and tangles, hold the section and make short, gentle passes. Avoid yanking. Empty fibers often using the release button. End with a full pass to smooth strands.
Routine matters. Short sessions two to three times weekly, help most coats. During heavy shedding, add one extra session. Keep movements calm and consistent. Offer a treat before and after grooming. This sets a helpful routine.
Care Instructions
- Press the retractable bristle button to clear fibers.
- Tap the pad gently to release any remaining debris.
- Rinse the chief under lukewarm water if needed.
- Dry with a soft cloth and air dry fully.
- Do not soak the handle or hinge.
- Store in a dry place away from heat.
- Inspect pins monthly; replace if bent or worn.
Begin with short sessions for up-to-date users. Keep pressure light to avoid snagging. For dense double coats, make overlapping passes. Use a detangling spray if strands feel sticky. Always brush before bathing to remove loose fibers first. After drying, make a final light pass to smooth.
During heavy shedding, divide the coat into zones. Set a quick schedule: day one back, day two sides, day three chest and tail area. Each zone needs only a few minutes. Consistency beats long, tiring sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the self-cleaning mechanism work?+
A single press of the retractable bristle button pulls the pin plate back below the edge of the pad, which lifts the collected hair above the bristle tips so it can be pulled away cleanly without picking strand by strand. Releasing the button returns the pins to their working position. This mechanism replaces the need to manually clear each pin, which typically takes more time and leaves residue on the brush.
What coat types does the curved pin pad handle most effectively?+
The curved pad is designed to follow the natural contour of the body rather than lying flat against a rigid surface. This makes it particularly effective on double coats, medium coats, and any coat where the undercoat sits beneath a denser top layer. For very short single-coat breeds, the fine pins still lift loose surface hair but the curved shape provides less additional advantage than on fuller coats.
Can this brush cause skin irritation if I press too hard?+
The fine springy pins are designed to flex under pressure rather than scratch, but sustained heavy pressure against the skin — especially in thin-skinned areas like the belly or behind the ears — can cause redness. Use light, steady strokes with the brush at a shallow angle and let the pin spring action do the work. For mats, hold the section of fur and make short passes from the tip inward rather than pulling through a tangle in one stroke.
How do I clean the brush itself after a session?+
Press the retractable bristle button to release the bulk of collected fibers. Tap the pad gently to dislodge remaining debris, then rinse the pin head under lukewarm water if needed. Dry with a soft cloth and allow to air dry fully before storage. Do not soak the handle or the spring hinge, as moisture inside the mechanism can cause the return spring to stiffen or corrode over time.
How often should I use this brush to manage seasonal shedding?+
Two to three short sessions per week is the recommendation for most coats during stable periods. During heavy seasonal shedding, an extra session every other day, divided by body zone, reduces loose fiber buildup more effectively than one long session once a week. Shorter, consistent grooming keeps the undercoat from matting and reduces the volume of loose hair on floors and furniture. Pup R Us suggests brushing before bathing to clear loose fiber first.
