Q: Is this different from the Pawfectly Calm Slicker Brush™? A: Yes. The FurBrush is for daily deshedding and light tangles on summer coats and shedding coats (ideal for many doodle mixes). For thicker, curly, or double undercoats—or if mats have formed—use the Slicker Brush. Q: Is it safe for puppies or sensitive dogs? A: Absolutely. Use gentle, short strokes and introduce the brush in calm, 3–5 minute sessions. Offer treats and breaks to keep the experience positive. Q: How often should I brush? A: A few times per week for maintenance; during heavy shedding, brief daily sessions help keep loose hair under control. If you encounter a stubborn mat, switch to the Slicker Brush rather than pulling.
