Zoie is going on 7 months and she's really turning out to be pretty, but her coat isn't silky like it should be and she's getting very hard to take care of. I've brushed her twice a day for the last 4 days and still can't get all the tiny tangles out. I find mats inside her back legs and under one of her front legs (armpit area). I think I'll try some human hair products before I give up and have her hair cut off. I've let it grow out this far and I hate to give up. After reading what others say, I think I'll try some different conditioners and finishing products. I have Ice on Ice and use Pet Silk shampoo and conditioner but she's outside alot lately (got tired of her peeing on the floor) and I think it's drying out her hair which makes it tangle more. She doesn't handle brushing well at all. She bites me when I do her back legs.
