The compassionate observation of dog owners leads to detection of
injuries, swelling, walking problems and the overall mood and attitude
of the dog which could be significant. Owners who groom regularly can
also monitor daily effective elimination of parasites in the dog’s coat.

Currycombs are an essential part of grooming, sometimes called just
curry, or curry brushes. The currycomb is a rubber or plastic tool with
teeth which is rubbed over a dog’s coat, meant to loosen the dirt, hair
and other extant items in the dog’s coat. While the currycomb works, the
skin of the dog is stimulated to produce its own natural oils.
Currycombs are commonly used for dogs with lots of hair which sheds
regularly, like German Shepherds. Currycombs can work on difficult knots
in the coat which may occur on the ears, the paws or in the tail.
Skilled groomers work the currycomb with care so that the dog will not
be harmed, or will not begin to recoil from grooming because of
remembered pain in the process. Professional groomers like Erica Ciara LInzey also use shedding blade tools, which consist of a blade with
short, dull teeth that helps remove dead, shedding hair from breeds with
harsh coats.
