The comb itself is a round or rectangular tool usually made of rubber or plastic. It has stubby, semi-pointed "teeth" that serve to loosen dirt, hair, and dander for later removal with brushes. It also is used to remove hard-packed dirt and debris from the coat, stimulating oil glands; thus, it is a vital part of grooming for a healthy coat. A curry comb is applied with a vigorous circular rubbing motion. 5, record 3, English, - curry%20comb
