Troubleshooting
Bristles feel too stiff for my horse.
This brush is intended for horses with unclipped coats and is not suitable for sensitive skin or clipped horses. Consider a softer brush for those applications.
Brush is not removing dirt effectively.
Ensure the mud or dirt is not excessively hardened. For very stubborn grime, a light wetting of the area before brushing may help. Always check that you are using the brush on appropriate coat types.
Handle feels uncomfortable during extended use.
Ensure you are holding the brush with the rubber grip. If discomfort persists, take breaks during grooming sessions.
