According to Ani Corness of Luxury Spa, the number one item she recommends to all dog owners is a really great brush. “A brush can actually help prevent a number of skin issues as well as allow you to inspect your dog closely to catch health issues early,” she explained. She uses this rubber one at her salon and calls it “magic.”

As an alternative, look no further than Harry Barker’s double-duty bamboo brush. One side features massaging pins for detangling course fur, while the other incorporates natural boar bristles for maximum smoothness. Plus, it won’t look out of place sitting on your bathroom shelf.
