The brush and comb I use don't seem to get through her cottony hair.
I will have to post a picture soon. Thank goodness for yorkie talk. Now I know I have a normal Yorkie. 
Thanks,

Some Yorkies have very silky coats and never matt, just a tangle here and there, but if you have a cotton coated Yorkie it seems like the hair matts by itself. It's not your fault.
I have never tried the Aussie 3 minute, but wouldn't be too concerned about using it even though they do say that human products are not the proper PH. I love the Cowboy Magic Detangler. A little goes along way and I don't have to cut the matts out - they actually brush out. It is a silk protein so it moisturizes and changes the texture of the hair so it keeps the matts out longer. A little goes a long way. Their website is
www.cowboymagic.com and it has a store locator.
www.tobysnaturalpets.com sells a tube for $7.95 plus shipping. If you decide to order from toby's look at the Life for Teeth products. I have been really happy with the results and their breath stays so fresh. I paid $23.00 for a large bottle (approx. 15 oz.) of the Cowboy Detangler at a local livestock and farm supply.
P.S. Welcome!
