We use Coat Handler products that I've come to love. There's a 15-1 conditioner that I use straight without dilution after a bath. I'm wondering if I could dilute it 15-1 and use it as the daily combing spray? |
There is no dumb questions here on YT. This is mild .....
Coming from a cotton coat human I can tell you that the worse thing that I can do is to brush my hair when it is dry. Plus if I dont put something on it, it will frizz. Our pups are the same way, like you said. Poof !
I never brush/comb my pups dry. I use a spray bottle with some conditioner in it. I've tried other over the counter product but they like the detangler just dont work as well and as you know get sticky and I think add to the problem with the clumping of the hair once they go out and role around on the ground.
I'd like to find something that would make it shine too. I recently heard of Halo Dream Coat. I ordered it and have been giving it to the pups now for a little over a week. Crossing my finders that it help with shine and with their allergies as it claims to do so. I'll know soon enough!
