I'm not sure what to tell you because it is a "Morkie" and I don't know how the other breeds coat is. I brush my Yorkies every couple of days and my Lexy who has the longest hair does have a natural part as well. When I brush them I brush them the opposite direction as if I'm poofing her hair up to ensure I get all tangles out. I mainly use a slicker brush on them and they love it, it's like a massage to them. My Carly is like yours though she turns on her back anytime I want to love on her so she does the same when brushing her but her hair is short and I have been trying to work with her on staying on her stomach as I have only had her a few months. What shampoo's have you tried? Have you tried any conditioner's?
I love Minksheen and I received more in the mail today as I had run out. You don't really notice a difference until you stop using it. My poor baby's have been scratching themselves like crazy especially since we have tons of mosquitos now, bathes for everyone tomorrow...my Minksheen has arrived and fast too thanks to Jenny! She also sent me Nova Pearl's Conditioner to try as well tomorrow, I will let you know how that works.
