Lets Start with a Slicker Brush.
Many use slicker brushes to remove fur mats (along with the cornsatrch technique above) and tangles from all coat types. Slicker brushes remove dead hair, both undercoat and the coarser hairs from the outerpart of the dog's coat. Slicker brush is generally used at the end of a grooming to remove a portion of the dead undercoat. Slicker brushes are often used as a finishing brush

Dogs with a very short, smooth coat, like a Boxer

Pin brushes are available in two types: with and without rubber-tipped brush prongs

Pin brushes remove dead hair that the dog will otherwise shed onto the furniture or clothing. Pin brushes are also very effective at removing minor tangles found in many dogs with a medium-length coat. These type of brushes are better for wet fur, bristle brush or slicker brush can cause fur breakage since hairs are more delicate and prone to damage when wet.
Some dogs get pretty scared in the bathtub. They jump around, slip and fall, shiver and shake, and are simply miserable. In the process

This is especially good if you have one of the hand-held shower heads. Your dog should feel much more relaxed and less scared standing on firm ground than in a tub of water. You will probably stay much drier
