If you have a mess of matting down deep, you probably should give a thought to having him shaved down. That can get really uncomfortable, and having them worked out would be ouch for him as well. Puppy coats are sooooo difficult.
One of mine still has a cotton coat as an adult, it never did transition to a silk coat like it should have. For her own comfort, I keep her in a shorter cut.
