| That's just baby fur, as it grows out it will get alot more managable i'm sure, just try brushing regularly.

| Some of the puppies are very fluffy, esp around 3 months of age. My pup's coat -baby coat- was thick black and crazy frizzy. It grows out though and the new adult hair is much silkier and stays down... It's a phase we have to deal with (sigh).

Do you have pictures ? Even if he is registered as purebred doesn't mean that he will have a long silky coat . | |

| I think it is just puppy fur too. My Ben is a little fluff ball right now at almost 4 months. I have been using the diluted Cowboy Magic detangler on him when I brush. That tames it all for a while and sure is making him shiny. Might give that a try as you wait for the adult coat to come in.
