Kincade Wooden Deluxe Dandy Brush - Natural

The Kincade Wooden Deluxe Dandy brush is suitable for a variety of animals including horses, dogs, and other livestock with different coat types.

It is recommended to clean the brush after each use to remove loose hair and dirt. A more thorough cleaning with mild soap and water can be done periodically as needed.

While the brush can be used on a wet coat, it is best to allow the coat to dry partially first. Excessive moisture can affect the natural bristles and wooden handle. Ensure the brush is dried thoroughly after use.

Natural bristles are gentle on the animal's skin and coat while effectively removing dirt and debris. They also help to distribute natural oils, promoting a healthy shine.

Store the brush in a dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain the condition of both the wood and the bristles.

The natural bristles are generally gentle, but always monitor the animal for any signs of discomfort or irritation during grooming. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

This can occur with natural bristles. Ensure the brush is not being over-saturated during cleaning. Check if the handle is dry before and after cleaning. Allow to dry thoroughly between uses.

The wood may need conditioning. Apply a small amount of natural wood oil (like mineral oil or linseed oil) to the handle with a soft cloth. Wipe off any excess. Avoid exposing the brush to excessive moisture or dry heat.

Ensure the bristles are clean and free from debris. For stubborn dirt, you may need to pre-loosen it with a curry comb or by wetting the coat slightly. Check that you are using the correct brushing technique for the animal's coat type.
