Yes, I leave some in Toto's coat. Sometimes I just apply the concentrate [about 2 tablespoons] all over with my hands and then just add a little water and massage her all over. [you can feel it when it is distributed well] Sometimes I dilute about 2 tablespoons to a cup of water and spray it throughout her hair, massage her coat and leave it in. Let us know how it works for you!
[Always brush all the mats out before bathing. I brush Toto before and after her bath.]
