i read a thread about using cowboy magic for knots and matting of fur/hair, and i bought some for Kash, and it works wonders!!! i just wanted to reccommend this product to anyone whose yorkie's hair is uncooperative. lol! the only problem i've had (and this could be solely my experience) is that i have to use a lot of the product in one sitting. this is probably only because Kash's hair is getting really long, and his knots are at the bottom (close to his skin) so i have to massage the product in until it gets to the knots.
anyway, for those who are unfamiliar with the product, it's made originally for horses... but it works on other animals and even humans.
the small bottle (4 oz was $10.95 locally. there is a larger size available, but obivously more expensive...
anyway, try it!
p.s. it smells great, too!
