Freshly Bailey Doodle Brush, Large Slicker Brush for Dogs, Wood Handle

My little girl is mostly Chow Chow, Pitbull and Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler), so she has plenty of long hair, and is double coated! Fortuntely, she only has one major shedding season, but her hair tends to kink and knot throughout the year, especially around her neck and belly. I've been through several other brushes, mostly the double sided design with the brush and slicker, but none of those have lasted. They also tended to snag her knots, pins would fall out, and eventually the entire rubber brush mount would completely rip out of the surround. This brush seems to be very durable. The fine, hooked pins work well to untangle her fur without pulling too much. The large, rectangular head has great coverage compared to the smaller oval ones, and the pins are long enough to grab the base of the loose fur. My girl loves to be brushed, but I've had a couple brushes that I noticed she reacted more negatively toward (quick head turns / glances while I was brushing, indicating discomfort)... She seems to be very comfortable with this one, even when I'm using more pressure with it. It's not quite as easy to clean as other brushes I've used - I can pull out most of the hair patties if I lift from the topside of the brush and work it downward (the brush hooks toward the bottom), but some fine hair remains in the center of the brush... It's not a big deal overall, but it may be a bit annoying for some people (like me) who prefer to put away a completely clean brush. I sometimes grab another brush just to brush the remaining hair out... This brush isn't cheap, but it's less expensive than most comparable brushes, and I can't imagine those brushes being any better (I'm not sure what they could really improve upon)! If it's as durable as it feels, and it lasts a few years, it's definitely worth it! Overall, my pooch and I are really happy with this brush!

Works so well on my labradoodle. It is great for getting the undercoat and snarls out. Love it!

As a professional dog groomer, I love this brush! It is quite durable and powerful, yet gentle! This design is far better than straight slicker brushes or ones with ball tips.

We have a bernedoodle puppy that needs to be brushed everyday. She is used to the brush and doesn't mind getting combed with it. She is a non shedder, but you can still see hair stuck on the brush which means its getting deep enough to get all the hair. Easy to use and very stable for brushing.

I absolutely love this brush for my Golden Doodle! It effortlessly detangles their curly coat without causing any discomfort. The bristles are gentle yet effective at removing loose hair and preventing mats, which is a huge relief during shedding season. It’s easy to hold and clean, making grooming sessions quick and stress-free for both me and my pup. Highly recommend for any Golden Doodle owner looking to keep their dog’s coat healthy, shiny, and tangle-free! gave a four star because it takes time and energy but worth it in the long run
