A pet bathing product for the shampooing or bathing of pets, including dogs and horses. The inventive device includes a distribution head that is attached to a hose and an additive reservoir that allows for the sudsing of the coat directly through the comb. The device has a handle designed to fit easily in the hand while currying a pet. A fluid hose or other fluid supply system is attached, either directly or through an adaptor, to a fluid conduit which runs through the device and directs fluid and/or additive to the curry head. A shutter is located between the fluid conduit and the additive reservoir which can be turned on or off to allow fluid to flow past the additive reservoir. When the shutter open position is selected, the shutter allows additive to diffuse into the stream of fluid. The additive/fluid mixture is applied to the pet through the holes in the distribution head. When the shutter is turned to the off position, fluid flows past it without additive being dispensed. In one embodiment, the reservoir is split into a first additive chamber and a second additive chamber which contain different additives. When the first additive chamber is selected by turning the filter to the first position, the fluid stream flows past the first additive chamber allowing the first additive to diffuse into the stream of fluid. When the second additive chamber is selected by turning the filter to the second position, the fluid stream flows past the second additive chamber allowing the second additive to diffuse into the stream of fluid. Massaging projections such as curry comb teeth attach to the distribution plate to allow for direct contact on the pet while sudsing and rinsing. There may be holes in the tips of the massaging projections and/or on the face of the distribution plate. The size of the massaging projections on the distribution plate varies according to the user's needs.
