....because I can't seem to find the answer after reading on this site and many others. Colby turned 9 months old on the 14th and I cannot figure out his coat. It was looking like it'd get long and silky but now its thinning and slowed down in growth. I've read all about cotton coats, what I thought he was for a moment, but then I read they are thicker, He has a THIN coat. he also has this thinner, finer under coat??? I think it my be his puppy coat? it comes out when I brush him. Right now he looks horrible. I don't know if I should give up and get him cut or wait. (I was really wanting to get it LONG) Here is a picture to help. I cannot get a side picture, I swear he knows what I'm trying to do!! (we were just playing in the pic, he looks horrible but its the most recent one I can provide) you can see his chest his hair is so thin.

Any thoughts?
