Why the Floof Does My Dog Need More Than One Brush?!

Why the Floof Does My Dog Need More Than One Brush?!

Jun 13, 2025

We get it. You’re standing in the bathroom, holding the Brodie Brush like it’s Excalifloof, staring at your very shaggy doodle, wondering:
“Why the floof would I need another brush?!”

Totally fair question. But here’s the thing—when it comes to grooming, one tool doesn’t rule them all (sorry, Brodie). Different brushes do different things, and together? They keep your floof fresher, cleaner, and looking like they just walked off a shampoo commercial set.

Let’s break it down.

Meet the Grooming Dream Team

🖤 The Brodie Brush (aka The OG)

This is the floof-lifter, the fluff-styler, the everyday hero. Designed with longer angled pins to get deep into thick coats, the Brodie Brush tackles tangles, reduces light matting, and creates that airy bounce we’re famous for.
Best for:

  • Medium to large dogs

  • Doodles, double-coats, curly fluff, and long-haired breeds

  • Post-bath volume and full-body brushing

🖤 The Brodie Mini Brush (aka The Little Legend)

Same slicker-style magic as the OG, just snack-size. Perfect for pups, petite breeds, and detail work like paws, faces, and ears. Bonus: toss it in your bag for on-the-go touch-ups.
Best for:

  • Puppies and small breeds (Yorkies, Maltese, Cavapoos)

  • Travel kits, crate bags, or drawer essentials

  • Sensitive areas that need a lighter touch

🖤 The Everydog Comb (aka The Precision Player)

Comb through it, and you’ll never go back. This stainless steel tool is your secret weapon for deep detangling, face fluff styling, and post-wash perfection. It slides through stubborn knots and helps catch the loose hairs your brush might miss.
Best for:

  • All breeds (yes, even your short-haired bestie!)

  • After-bath finishing or between brush-outs

  • Detail work: face, legs, tail, or behind the ears

So… Why the Floof Do I Need All Three?

Great question. Imagine trying to do your own hair with only a round brush. You could, but it might end in chaos.

Dogs have different grooming needs depending on:

  • Coat type (curly? double coat? fine and straight?)

  • Body area (face ≠ tail ≠ underarms)

  • Life moments (post-park? bath day? Zoom call cameos?)

Using the right tool for the right job makes grooming faster, easier, and way more enjoyable—for you and your pup.

What Works for Your Dog?

Coat Type Best Tools Why
Curly (Poodle, Doodle, Bichon) Brodie Brush + Comb Detangles + smooths curls between grooming
Silky (Yorkie, Shih Tzu) Mini Brush + Comb Gentle detail work + finishing
Double-Coated (Golden, Husky) Brodie Brush + Comb Gets deep into that thick undercoat
Short (Beagle, Boxer) Comb Great for removing debris and tidying

TL;DR: It’s Not Extra. It’s Essential.

Different tools for different floofs. You wouldn’t use a toothbrush to comb your hair, right? Your dog deserves the same thoughtful care—and trust us, they feel the difference.

So next time you're wondering why the floof your pup needs more than one brush... just look at that face. That tail. That shed. That fluff.

You’ve got this.
And we’ve got the tools to back you up.
