| Help grooming our new baby I got a new little girl last week she's 12 weeks old when we got her the hair on her sides were matted so I got the comb out and spent 2-3 hours combing here seems like alot of fuzzy hair came out with the comb so I bathed and conditioned her with shampoo. Everytime I go to brush her weather its an hour or the next day she is matted she runs from me everytime I come near her with the comb. Emma's hair has never been like this and I don't want to shave here with winter so close any advise? Is this a cottony coat? Will this be a long term problem?

| Sounds like a cottony coat. Maybe you need to use some detangler before you brush her hair, and maybe you need a different type of brush.

| My Korki is 17 weeks old. I use Chris Christensen Ice on Ice detangler and I purchased some Emu Oil from the Emu Ranch in Colo. I got all this online. I love the Ice on Ice and spray the brush each time I brush her. I found the Emu Oil was greasy so I use it first then wash and rinse, rinse, rinse. She doesn't tangle as bad now. I brush her very often. I'm no expert and am learning too. Good luck. |

| the slicker brush helps with the tangle the most i think. after i bought that its rare to see a tangle and a lot less need to brush like five minutes a day unless i want to pretty her up or something. I have a question though, does Ice on Ice causes flakes? |
