I know how you feel, my Benjamin has a really really thick coat that matts easily and I keep debating wether or not to cut it short but I don't think I can bare to! So right now i'm just brushing him 3 times a day and using good conditioners and detanglers. Its alot of work but his coat is just so nice.
