Chris Christensen A5X Mark X Slicker Tiny Head

Works perfect for brushing out the legs, undercarriage, and face of my havanese puppy. It's soft and small and perfect for reaching any small or sensitive spots. Very smooth and definitely recommend for anyone with a small dog.

I recently got a “professional” grade slicker brush, I have read how many are rough and you have to be extremely careful with your dogs skin , so when it arrived I figured it was normal. But I returned it because I have a 4 pound Maltese and I felt it was too wide. So I found this and thought it was expensive BUT it was the only one I seen that was this XS small size. I have used it a few times and LET ME SAY I love it, it’s not rough it’s actually soft in comparison to other slicker brushes I removed 3 small mats without even using the ICE ICE spray because it’s more manageable then a regular slicker brush. She’s not intimidated by the brushGreat purchase it won’t disappoint

Great little brush. Check the item dimensions and you won’t be surprised. This was a very tiny brush and I have tiny babies

I was so reluctant to put this kind of money into a brush. However, I have a two year old Havanese who has had to be shaved down to the skin once who develops mats at record speeds and vehemently fought all attempts, until now, at brushing her. Only frequent professional grooming has saved her another shave down.I purchased this product as part of a two step plan to gain control my baby's very challenging coat maintenance. I purchased this along with Chris Christensen's Ultra Ice on Ice and used the spray as directed ie: saturated the area of knots and tangles and leaving for a minute or two before attacking them with this brush. It's been a godsend. This slicker makes fast work of the tangles once the detanglingng spray has worked for the recommended minute or so.. Abby is much calmer about being brushed now that it's not tantamount to fur baby torture.Christensen's products are really pricey but I'm on track to save money due to less frequent grooming and, although I'm on a fairly low pension, my baby's comfort & happiness is high on my list of things that make my life happy. Highly, highly recommend!

I was unable to find a stand-out brush to use on my dog's legs, head, and face by reading reviews, so I decided to buy this brush trusting in the brand name and quality of what I had read about Chris Christensen brushes.After using it for 3 months, I can say that this brush doesn't perform as expected, and both my dog and I dislike it. My dog is very accustomed to being brushed and combed, but this is the only brush that she pulls away from. To me, the brush is useless. It simply doesn't DO anything. It doesn't detangle, remove hair, or improve the appearance of my dog's fur. I don't see any benefit to using it, and I've used it on fur from 1/4" long to 3" long.I can say that the quality seems very good: the pins have stayed in, the brush seems to be well-made, and it is attractive. However, it is by far the most expensive grooming tool I have purchased and is the most useless.

Finally! My two Havanese and my Mini Schnauzer all hated slicker brushes. Always a fight. Then I noticed my groomer using this tiny one. Delighted to find it on Amazon. My furbabies actually let me use it.

Didn't work very well on our Standard Poodle. Pins too short for me.

I've owned Malteses for the last 12 years. If you own fur babies of breeds with complicated coats, you are probably familiar with Chris Christensen products. I have two 4-pound Malteses. They are tiny! This brush is the perfect size for teacups, puppies and small dogs. I've tried others but this is the only one that is the perfect size for them. The quality is amazing (I believe they're made in Germany) and separates my babies' hair perfectly. If you have tiny dogs with hair that needs a slicker brush, look no further. I know it's kind of a splurge but it's totally worth it.
