I think they recommend the slicker brush to get the mats out. Frankly I don't like the slicker brush on yorkies either. My bichon is double coated and that's what I use on her. Kirby's hair is something else. She needs a slicker brush. I prefer to use the madan pin on my yorkie. Khloe's hair is thin and silky. I always spray them both with detangler. To me it seems that a slicker brush would hurt a yorkie's skin to me since they aren't double coated. I have only needed the slicker brush on Khloe's legs and backside. |
