Made of high-quality food-grade silicone, it is flexible and safe, free of odd odor and designed to be gentle on a pet's skin. The brush head is densely packed with resilient soft protrusions that not only remove dirt during shampooing but also loosen the pet's coat in daily grooming, remove loose hair and suppress matting. The hand-fitting grip makes it easy to handle; it is washable and easy to maintain. It offers a wide range of colors, resists deformation and is sturdy. Suited to dogs, cats and many other pets, it works for both shampooing and brushing and is an essential pet-care item.
