I have 2 boys, they are brothers from the same litter. One has a cotton coat and one has a silky coat. The difference is incredible. My Fletch has a silky coat and the upkeep, maintenance is soooo much easier with him. I can leave his coat longer and it does not matt, plus he turned silver down his back. He is just beautiful!
My Dex is SOFT, soooo soooo soft. But his coat matts like crazy, grooming him has to be done very often. I have to leave him in a puppy cut.. anything longer mats too quickly. He did not turn silver at all, he is solid black and tan.
I knew Dex was a cotton coat when I got him at 9weeks and Fletch was silky.
They are both 3.5 years old now. Here are the pics of them. Fletch first, then Dex.
