Our beautiful bearded collie has a wonderful long haired coat that does need regular grooming and a considerable amount of maintenance. As any owner of a longer haired dog knows this is something you cannot skimp on, as tangles and knots can be both unsightly and uncomfortable. Not only do we need to keep her long coat looking good, but we also need to make sure she hasn't got any unwanted visitors. Having such long and flowing fur does mean she can pick up all sorts of things when out and about, brushing against bushes, long grass etc. To combat this and lessen the chances of unwanted nastys setting up home we use an Ancol Flea ...  Read the complete review

When our cat Belle managed to get fleas we had to purchase a flea comb for when the Frontline worked its magic and killed the little buggars off. It was purchased from 5 Away Pets in Bournemouth for around £4.00. The comb has a steel material set of bristles which are rigid and do not move.

It is nice to hold and feels comfortable when holding it. It can be used on cats and dogs and I have also known people to use them for just grooming especially on dogs such as poodles who have curly fur. The first thing ...  Read the complete review

The wider toothed brushed are great at getting out any bigger debris from his coat, ...  Read the complete review

Just over 16 years ago I became the extremely proud owner of a beautiful kitten however my new charge was younger than I'd been told and at only a few weeks old wasn't old enough for insecticide flea treatments. Having been born under a rose bush on a farm he had quite alot of life going on in his little fur coat so I had to act fast, especially as I intended (and did) to have him sleep in bed with me to keep warm. Off to the pet shop I went and purchased a bottle of puppy and kitten shampoo and one of these flea combs. I think I paid about £5 for it at the time and they still cost around that mark. Back home I cranked the gas fire up despite it being the ...  Read the complete review
