A multi-purpose grooming and shedding tool suitable for removing dirt and shedding hair and simultaneously grooming animals, such as horses, is made in the form of an oval-shaped, molded plastic body member having depending grooming teeth formed in a portion of the outer periphery of the tool. A second row of grooming teeth extend downwardly from the body portion and are spaced inwardly from the outer periphery. A separate shedding blade is attached to another portion of the outer periphery of the tool and has more closely spaced teeth in it than the grooming teeth molded into the main body portion of the tool.
