A forced-air dryer that blows water off the coat at high speed while straightening hair shafts and blasting out loose undercoat. Standard equipment in professional grooming salons.
Proper drying prevents skin infections from trapped moisture. The blow-out technique also removes more undercoat than brushing alone.
Keep the nozzle moving constantly to avoid heat concentration. Work in sections from back to front, holding coat taut with your free hand.
