Coat King combs can be used with great effect on several other hair-coated animals other than just cats and dogs. They are particularly effective when used on horses and ponies for maintaining manes and tails as well as the general body areas. A number of cattle exhibitors are discovering the benefits they offer in show coat and tail preparation. Coat Kings are also becoming increasingly used around the world for rabbits, hamsters and ferrets and they produce some highly effective results on many of the goat breeds The range offers a selection of bladed knives for each and every dog breed as well as for use on horses, all breeds of cattle as well as cats.

If your knife is cutting into the hairs then manually dulling on a rough surface is recommended. The average pet will only need stripping every 3 to 6 months, however more frequent grooming will make for a more desirable “show coat”.Each blade is a comb with teeth that range in density. A coarse comb allows more hair through untouched, while a ‘extra fine’ comb will remove the majority of hair.

Even within traditional dog and cat breeds as with any animal hair texture is often heavily influenced by the sire use.
