Awww...what a good mommy
Are her mats close to skin? If there are a lot of mats close to skin & you do have to shave her, the good news is it grows back really quickly. Also, when you shave a "puppy coat", a new adult coat grows in that's typically a lot easier to manage. Puppy coats are usually more coarse & tangle more than adult coats. A lot of groomers offer "de-matting" services. They'll untangle the tangles for you. You could try that. The only thing is, you don't really know how gentle they'll be with her. Anyway, good luck with everything! You'll LOVE the Madan
