Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | How Often Do You Brush Your Babies? My boys seem to always have the "unkempt" look, even 5 minutes after I brush them. So, I'm wondering how often most people brush their fur babies.

| He's 31/2 months old. He's as messy as when we start cause he is such a wiggler. |

| Both of my boyz have a silk coat so they don't tangle or mat but they do look stringy even right after brushing. I haven't found anything that helps that but I'm considering puppy cuts! |

| My Girls get that stringy look just a few minutes after brushing but I think even the top show dogs do too... I always see the handlers brushing the coat while waiting to be judged, on the judging table, on the floor before the movement judgeing, while they wait for other dogs to be judged.... Basically all the time. I voted for everyother day but that's for a through brushing, they get their heads and a light brushing daily.

| LOL, I have to brush them that often, Benji has a super thick mammoth like coat that matts so easily, Malachi's puppy coat is coming through and matting with the adult coat so thats a nightmare and Indy well she just has a lovely silky coat that I want to keep lovely |
