I have a 6 pound Russian Toy Terrier would the small size be small enough for him? Are the bristles soft are hard?

The bristles are the thin metal type that are hard, so I would at gently brush. The small size will be a perfect fit. Hope this helps

Bristles are metal and hard, but flexible. The one I have would be very large for that size dog, in my opinion.

This might be a bit big for him. My dog is a 45 lb border collie mix and it is perfect for her. Hope this helps. Also the bristles are pretty hard. They work well for long haired dogs though. You just have to be gentle.

The bristles are kind of hard . They retract to make it easy to remove the hair so the bristles are a kind of steel material. I got the large brush so I have no idea about the small size. I really like this brush. Hope this helps..

The brush is too large for small dogs. I USE it on my larger dogs and love it. BUT our 4# dog it wouldn't work well as bristles metal and hard.

Yes, but I would get the smaller one for a Frenchie. http://www.amazon.com/KONG-ZoomGroom-Grooming-Brush-Small/dp/B007B6VTZG/

I'm not sure what breed your dog is sorry...but I have a mixed terrier dog and we got the small. I think next time we may go up a size. The small fit very snug but are hard to put on in our dog's case.

The brush is pretty big. It's for a large size dog, u might have to buy a small one of buy a baby tooth brush. My chihuahua likes the peanut butter taste.

Mine is REALLY hard (not at all squishy) and 4.5 inches. My puppy is 3 months old and about 20 lbs. She likes it but has a really hard time trying to pick it up. She usually gets about 2 steps and it falls out of her mouth.

I have the medium size and they are definitely on the softer side. I had the smaller at one time and they may have been a bit more stiff.I just felt them and you can push them in without feeling like they bristle will hurt.I think they are worth trying at least--Good Luck with your decision.

They are not really soft but not as hard as most of the back brushes. I would say stiff and not hard and you can scrub with them and they don't scratch. I think it's a real quality brush. Mary

I have a Miniature dachshund which is 7 pounds. The toothbrush is bordered on both sides if you get the triple action which is great for small dogs. The only thing I should mention is the one I bought looks a little different than the one on the site now.

I have a husky and I use this one for her: Zoom Groom Rubber Brush Medium/Firm Raspberry. It works beautifully and she LOVES it. It is amazing how much hair comes off, and how much better she looks afterwards.

My dog is a rat terrier about 8.5 pounds, so pretty small. the muzzle did not work well for our dog. It actually took a little skin off his nose, so of course we do not use it. sorry

I have a 10 lb. Boston Terrier and the xsmall fits fine. I did find though, that after I washed and dried them in the dryer they shrunk just a little. But I am very pleased with this product. I don't remember if they come in a small size, but either one would be great for you to try. Cathy

This brush isn't super soft, the bristles are pure boar hair which are pretty stiff and give you a rough but solid brush.

The one it comes with is between medium and soft. You can buy replacement brushes in different softness.

Sorry I took so long to get back to your question. I would think it's a little to hard for a small dog. Hope this helps and good luck.

It had better be soft enough because that's what I'm using it for: hardwood floors. I've only had it a short time, but feeling the bristles with my fingers, I can't see that they would do any damage.

Hi! My Yorkie is about 4 lbs and the small is a little big on him. So, I think the small would for your pup nicely! I agree, it would be helpful if they added a description. Hope I helped :-)
