Cotton Coat and Matting.....HELP!!! Ok, I need advice from all the Mommies and Daddies of furbabies with Cotton Coats.....HELP!!!....i'm at wits end and i'm sure Vinnie is too! Vinnie has had his hair cut professionally 3 times, every 2 months...the first time we shaved him down, it was hot and his hair was changing...each time they take less leaving a little more for colder weather. I bath him once a week and brush him, I added a comb this week......even 24 hours afterwards new mats are appearing.....this week I changed to Johnson & Johnson's Detangling Shampoo......I don't know what to do....and the worst offender is the buddy belt, it mats him period. Please tell me this is just the nature of a cotton coat and not me being a bad mommy.....the woman that grooms him was very rude about the matting caused by the buddy belt the last time we had him there, he's due in two weeks and I hate to take him back. I love the owner of the place but she's not the one who grooms him. Any advice would help. I'm sure Vinnie is just as frustrated with me trying to get the mats out as I am trying to get them out!
