Best Brush for 1"-2" Coat

I shaved my 11 month old sheepie down for the 2nd time using a 3 3/4 FC blade. It's been a few weeks and her coat is a little over 1 inch long. What's the best brush to use on a 1-2 inch coat? Both my Bass pin brush and my slicker seem uncomfortable for her with that little amount of hair. Thanks!

I like the madman pin brush, you can bush gently and still very effective to get through the fur, much finer pins and gentler than the bass pin brush. Toplinepets sell them online. Go for a soft or medium brush. I use the firm on Monty who has a soft long coat.
Chris Christiansen makes a wooden pin brush that I like to use when they girls are in a short coat. I feel like I'm less likely to scratch them with it if I'm not careful when I brush them.

I have this brush too and love it. It a bit more gentle on the skin, I find, so great for short coats.
Thank you all so much for your help! :) I like the idea of wooden pins. It seems like that would be a lot less scratchy. I may try both. ;). Thanks again!! :wag:
