How to Use a Slicker Brush on a Sheltie
A slicker brush has a flat or slightly curved base with fine, angled wire bristles. It’s designed to remove loose hair, undercoat, and mats without damaging the topcoat — when used correctly.
✨ When to Use a Slicker Brush
- During seasonal shedding
When de-matting or removing tangles
On areas that trap moisture or friction (armpits, ears, tail base)
After a bath (when coat is dry or slightly damp, never wet)
🪮 How to Use It Properly
1. Start with a conditioning spray
Lightly mist the coat with a leave-in detangling spray to reduce static and minimize breakage.
- Never slicker-brush a dry coat aggressively — it's one of the biggest grooming mistakes.
2. Work in sections (line brushing)
- Gently lift the coat layer by layer
- Use short, light strokes with the slicker brush
- Always brush in the direction of hair growth
-
Focus on areas like:
✔️ Behind the ears
✔️ Feathering on legs
✔️ Belly
✔️ Tail base
✔️ “Pants” (the thick rear fluff)
3. Avoid high-pressure brushing
Too much pressure = risk of brush burn on the skin.
Use a gentle grip, and if your dog flinches — stop.
Why Slicker Brushes Are So Useful for Shelties
- Removes shed undercoat efficiently
- Helps prevent matting before it starts
- Essential for keeping the coat breathable and clean
- Especially useful during spring and fall shedding seasons
⚠️ Caution:
Do not use a slicker brush for everyday quick brushing — it’s more of a targeted tool, not for the full coat unless used with experience.
