OsterEquine Care Series Horse Grooming Brush, Stiff Bristle, Blue (078399-100-001)

My dog has a short "double coat" and spends time at an offleash dog park every day, often wrestling and rolling around with other dogs and generally doing her best to grind as much dirt and mud into her coat as possible. I struggled to find a brush designed for dogs that had stiff, closely-packed bristles with a reasonable handle design (seriously, what is the deal with making brushes for animals with a stick handle that goes off to the side? that design is clearly optimized for a human brushing their own hair), so I looked for horse brushes instead and got this one based on the reviews.The brush is comically large for my 35-lb pup, but it works really well! It clears the dirt and mud from her coat very easily, and it also easily brushes away flakes from her skin between baths. I have a small boar-bristle brush that I use on her legs and face, where the fur is much shorter and the stiff bristles of the horse brush aren't needed. I also use a Furminator to deshed her about once a week -- this horse brush won't pull out the undercoat hairs, but it is great for cleaning up the ones that the Furminator pulls up but doesn't grab.Anyway, the brush is very comfortable to use, and I haven't really had any problem using the tip of it to brush smaller areas on my dog like her chest and the sides of her neck. I have small hands, and the small end of the brush is a good size. I highly recommend it!

So far I like this brush very much. It is very affordable and works well to brush dirt and mud off my horses who have rolled in the pasture and need blankets put back on for weathering storms. I had a soft brush made by this company and loved it as the shaped handle is so nice and I used it more than the wooden style handles. My horses have natural coats and are not body clipped so the stiffness is needed to clean them off. None of them seemed to mind it and even the high strung Mustang as well as my TB were fine with it. It's a Keeper ! My softer version never wore out, just got eaten by the Boxer Puppy ! Will buy the same brush again. They are well worth the price and a step up from old fashioned straight handled brushes. The shape of these make them easy to use and easy on the hands.

Much nicer and fits to hand, easier to glide across her coat.

I received my Oster brush today and the bristles are falling out. I have used this brand for years and never had a problem. It was packed in a bubble envelope , you would think that would be good enough. After all the brush is for horses. Not worth wasting resources and possible exposure to return.

Love these and my horses love being brushed with the grooms brush. Gets him nice and clean.

Awesome brush! It's just hard enough to get the stubborn dirt off but not too hard to where it hurts my horse. Would buy again!

I love this brush after a good curry. Gets out the loose dirt and hair easily. Great ergonomic handle, too! Even the small kids can wield this one.

Let me state right off, I don't use this on a horse. What I do use it for is cleaning my boots after being in the paddock with horses; especially those with low dust artificial dirt where it clumps on my shoes. Nothing else I used cleans the bottom of shoes like this. I would rate it five stars except I don't use it for what it was intended to be.

Fab grooming brushes would well recommend

J'ai été conquise par ce bouchon Oyster, à poils longs, excellente prise en main pour grands chevaux.J'ai tout d'abord testé dès le matin sur mon chat qui a aimé. Il est un bon testeur, car ultra sensible...J'ai ainsi pu le débarrasser de nombreux poils morts qui l'encombrent en permanence.Il a aimé, s'est frotté le museau et l'a mordillé. Ça veut dire qu'il aime dans son langage. Quand il l'a attaqué ça voulait dire stop. Je joins une photo ! ;-)L'après midi je montais une jeune jument au poil très court mais durant tout le mois d'août les chevaux étaient en vacances dans les prés. Ma jument avait plein de poils morts faciles à décoller. Ça volait un peu partout et s'est incrusté dans la brosse...Des zones de plis comme entre les plis croupe ( très sale mais on ne le voyait pas !) et le début des reins, désolée si je m'exprime mal, ont été faciles à nettoyer. Tout son corps était déjà beaucoup plus propre avant le passage de l'étrille.Et puis elle a adoré les gratouilles entre et derrière les oreilles, fermé les yeux de plaisir... Elle a validé mon investissement !!! :))Vraiment avec Oyster on n'est pas déçu de la dépense. Je recommande également la brosse à crinière. Elle démêle très bien y compris les nœuds.Ce sont des brosses extrêmement solides et qui sont faites pour durer. Le nettoyage est facile.

Io adoro questa marca! La spazzola è bella da vedere, antiscivolo e comoda, la spazzola è alta, quindi ottima per togliere la polvere sul manto del cavallo,ottima qualità

Bisher war ich sehr überzeugt von den Osterprodukten (habe bereits die Mähnenbürste und den Massagestriegel). Daher habe ich mir auch zwei Bürsten bestellt. Leider ist aus dieser Bürste beim ersten Putzen ein kompletter Borstenbüschel ausgefallen. Daher gingen beide Bürsten sofort wieder zurück und ich habe mich für günstige Alternativen entschieden, da mir das Geld dann doch zu schade war für die ungewohnt schlechte Qualität. Die Rücksendung ging dafür problemlos.
