Dealing with stickers

I've always owned shorthairs, decided to try something different and got myself a Brittany pup (great dog so far). Been getting him ready for the upcoming season and messing with stickers in a dog's coat is something new to me. Any tips or tricks? I really wanna trim him up but convincing the wife is another thing, she loves his longer hair! Didn't know if there's a special comb or spray you guys use? Thanks in advance, Bryan
 
Have a groomer give him a hunting clip, just trimmed up, removing any excess hair. He will lose some hair by combing burrs out over the bird season. Spraying PAM helps a bit. Buy a good rake and carry a comb. My golden looks quite different from the start to the end of the season. Comb out frequently to avoid issues with the dog chewing out burrs and swallowing them, then vomiting.
