Curry-comb
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A curry-comb is a rubber brush used for removing the worst of dirt from a horse's coat. The brush is usually circular or oval, with little rubber teeth laying in circles or spirals around the outside and center. The curry comb is used in circles on a horse's body, brushing dirt and dust to the surface. It also releases natural oils on the horse's body, giving it a sheen.
A metal curry-comb is a brush used for cleaning the body brush and the dandy brush. It can also be used (very gently) to remove excess hair during shedding season.
