Undercoat Rake
A long-toothed metal comb built to reach through a heavy double coat and pull out loose undercoat, the kind of coat a German Shepherd or Golden Retriever carries. Works alongside a deshedding tool rather than replacing one.

Our take
A long-toothed metal comb built to reach past the topcoat and pull loose undercoat out at the root, rather than just skim the surface the way a slicker brush does. It suits the double-coated breeds that shed the most, German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and similar, and earns its keep most during the twice-yearly seasonal blowout when a slicker brush alone cannot keep up. Work in the direction of hair growth in short sections rather than dragging it through mats, and follow up with a deshedding tool for the finer undercoat it leaves behind.
