Description
Waldhausen Deshedding Comb With Plastic Grip
The Waldhausen Deshedding Comb is a hand-held grooming tool that removes undercoat and loose hair from horses and ponies without damaging the topcoat. It is best for riders and grooms tackling the moulting season, and for anyone who wants a quicker way to strip dead hair out of a thick winter coat.
Measuring 13.5 x 10cm with a moulded plastic grip, it is small enough to live permanently in a grooming box yet effective enough for full-body work. Regular grooming with the comb helps keep the skin healthy and leaves the coat gleaming.

FAQ
Will this comb damage my horse's topcoat?
No. It is designed to lift out undercoat and loose hair without damaging the topcoat when used with light pressure in the direction of hair growth.
What size is the Waldhausen Deshedding Comb?
It measures 13.5 x 10cm, a compact size that fits comfortably in the hand and stores easily in a grooming box.
Is it suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes. The compact head makes it manageable on ponies and cobs as well as larger horses, and there is only one size to choose from.
When is the best time to use a deshedding comb?
It is most useful during the spring and autumn moult when coats are changing, though it can be used year-round as part of regular grooming.
How do I clean the comb?
Clear trapped hair away after each use, rinse in clean water if muddy and allow it to dry fully before storing.
Can I use it on a clipped horse?
Use light pressure on clipped coats, as there is less hair to work through. It is most effective on unclipped or partially clipped horses carrying an undercoat.
