Pumice stone?

[Cgchad]

Has any one tried using a pumice stone instead of brushing? I ran into a local groomer tonight and she suggested I try it.

I have to admit, it did a great job. It made bongos coat much softer.

Never heard of it but it's a great idea.

What she recommended, was the pumice stone that you would use on horses.

Just use the edge in short light strokes, like a petting motion.

I'll have to try that out. You liked it better than a brush? I usually use the Zoom Groom on my pups.

It works better than any brush I have tried for short haired dogs. I am using my experiences as a part time groomer in that statement, as I was married to a groomer for 10 years. So I have seen and tried lots of products.

Pumice stones are used on people all the time; never heard of it being used on a dog...interesting.

horse pumice stones are much more softer and different than human ones. the horse pumice stones are great, they also help distribute oil, making coats shiny! I never thought of using it on the dogs, good idea! I buy mine a Valley vet ( I have a love affair with them ) http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=2e87c4b2-7b6a-11d5-a192-00b0d0204ae5

I picked mine up at tractor supply, it was the slick and easy.
