Pin Brushes - Which brands are good?

[mbfrench]

I'm still very happy with mine as well. Love the looks on my girl's faces when I brush them with it, pure ecstasy.

I was worried that I'd bought the wrong one, it came in a soft or hard brush but for double coated breeds they recommended the hard brush. The hard brush seems just perfect, best $20 I've spent.

Yep,same here..between the tetherball & a new pin brush,these babes here are SMILIN!

I thought I used to get my CC brushes at Pet Supply House and Ren's Pets, but they seem to now only carry a limited set of brushes.

I found this Canadian distributer in Thornhill for CC

I found a Lawrence slicker brush at my pet store that was about $10 and I love it! It feels nice in the hand and is flexible on the fur. I haven't seen other Lawrence products, but if you find any, it would be worth a look (I think Ren's carries some)

I can't speak for any of the other brands

I just got my new brush,which I ordered from Needs & Desires.It is the same All systems brush,27mm. I totally love this brush.I had purchased a Maden one off from Ebay,to be honest I did not like it after using it for awhile,so I sold it to a friend of mine.

I have two All Systems brushes which I use for shows and I love them too.

I bought that tack case and didn't like it. I ended up selling it on ebay. It looks great but doesn't fit as much as you'd think, and you have to be careful what brushes you try to put in the front or it won't shut. You'd do better getting a canvas tote for crafts I think. You can find all kinds and they're washable if something leaks.

I am happy with all of my brushes except for one - my slicker. All of my brushes are CC brushes. I have the small slicker, the buttercomb (but I have only used it a few times, so not really worth the price I paid for it), a pin brush, and an undercoat rake I got on clearance at Wal-Mart for a dollar. I only use the undercoat rake when one of the dogs is blowing coat though.

There is a sheltie hair video where they were showing how to line brush. Does anybody know what brand of slicker brush she is using? That's the one I want. Jennifer has the same kind, and I keep forgetting to ask her what brand it is.

Ann - I like my tack box, but I guess it's not really useful if I don't put my stuff back in the box when I am done, huh? I always forget to put my stuff back in my box!

I don't much like my CC slicker either. Now I love the pin brushes. I have the fusion and absolutely love it. The slicker that I have by Four Paws I like better than the CC one.

I don't know what the deal is with their slickers. I can't pin point exactly what it is I don't like about mine. Maybe the handle? A lot of my brush "slickers" (don't know what you actually call the little pins ) also don't seem to hold up well.
