I need to get something to untangle the matted hair on my foster dog( OK, probably my dog). Can anyone recommend something that would be easier on him and me?
What about the shedding tool, I have seen in stores?
Good morning, I have used a horse detangler spray to comb out matts, careful, read the bottle not all horse products can be used on dogs. I have been told to use Pam spray also. A friend just was raving about the furminator pet tool, says they're pricey but worth every penny! I 've always use baby detangler and a comb. It just takes a lot of work.
I have the furminator actually 2 of them as thought kids lost my medium so went bought large for 48.00 unsure how would do with matts but if cut out matts groom with these may not hapopen again, and dogs love it.
I'm guessing sheared like a sheep. When our Bichon's hair got long over the winter, sometimes the best way to take care of matts that went almost to the skin was to shear everything off and start over.
And a good Slicker brush so the poor baby doesn't get matted in the first place.
Brush him as best as you can, give him a bath and use a good conditioner to help loosen the matts. Brush him out while you dry him and use the matt splitter for any that wont brush out.
I got a dematting comb at the pet store and it seems to work pretty good, although I may have him sheered for the summer, if he stays with me. He let me comb him a little today. I didn't want to do it for too long.
