Yes. The handset has longer-than-normal, flexible nozzles that work into deep coats and a curved edge shaped to fit a dog's body, so it performs well on both short- and long-haired breeds. Small dogs benefit from the gentle mode and focused paw jet, while larger dogs get effective coverage from the full spray disc. you can use the full disc to rinse a Labrador's thick coat and switch to the focussed jet for a terrier's muddy paws.

How do the three spray modes differ and when should I use each one?

The top has a focussed jet designed for paw cleaning and removing road salt or dirt between toes. The front of the handset provides a gentle mode that is ideal for legs and sensitive areas, giving soothing rinsing without startling your dog. The whole spray disc gives broader coverage for backs and general coat rinsing; you can switch between them using the button on the underside of the handset as you work.

Yes. The gentle mode is specifically designed for soothing rinsing, and the handset's curved shape helps you follow the contours of your dog's body so the experience feels less intrusive. Because you can switch sprays easily with the underside button, you can start slowly and build confidence, begin with gentle mode on the legs, then move to the full disc once they relax.

The model shown is a 150mm handset finished in matt black, giving a contemporary, low-gloss look that pairs well with modern matt-black taps and accessories. Its understated design works equally well in a stylish family bathroom or a practical utility space where you want durable, attractive kit. The compact 150mm size is easy to handle while still delivering wide coverage for rinsing.

Very effective. The focussed jet at the top targets dirt trapped between toes and road salt, while the longer flexible nozzles reach through dense fur to dislodge trapped grime. Practically, you can use the focussed jet to blast away paw salt, then follow with the full spray disc to rinse the rest of the coat for a thorough clean.
