Thanks Journey, and I don't mean to steal your thread. I am soaking up so much information here, and I wish I would have found this site long ago. What you say, does describe my Cha Cha. The red leg thing. I noticed the other day that she has split ends. LOL. So, what kind of oil do I use on her? I am not complaining about her coat because you are right I think it makes grooming easier, but she looks like a lion because the front half of her is long and full and the back half is short and dense and she is not scratching it off. It does appear to be regrowing nicely however. So, when you say to oil her, please tell me what yo mean......
