Hi Jeanne I only ever would use a slicker (a very small one) to get out a mat and then very gently. I would suggest a bristle brush it best for the fine silk coat, Maison & Pearson are great but any bristle is sufficient, it is much more gentle than a slicker. I would use a slicker on a double coated breed not a silk coated breed, you will pull out a lot of coat and it would not very comfortable for the dog either. If you are getting a lot of tangles it could be because the slicker is breaking the hair off and it is knotting. Hope this helps. Carabelle

Not if you alert them to the fact that your bitch might be in whelp that evening. I recently had a bitch who had mastitis and the on call vet rang me a few times after 10pm to see if she was okay. My friend had a caesarean on her bitch at 2am performed by Martin Strong at Motto Farm not that long ago.

Sorry double post - which I can't delete.
