Any suggestions on detanglers, brushes or combs that make this job a little easier, please let me know.

Well, I kind of agree with you. The CC system didn't really impress me too much. I used it for a couple of months and then I switched to Summerwinds products. They are pretty good. They have a whole line. Andy has a cottony coat so now I'm back to using Crown Royal shampoo and conditioner on him and it seems to make his hair better to manage. Then for everyday knots, I've been using the no more tangles to get them out. But everyday grooming here is a must...

After the posts on the CC system, I planned to order, now I'm not so sure. It probably isn't the correct thing to do but I use regular Pantene shampoo and Avon's Skin so Soft, just put a few drops in the water and my two seem fine. When I have a matte, I work it out with my fingers. Usually this occurs when I leave a rubber band in too long.

My Rosi gets matts close to her skin, she had a puppycut around a week ago and groomer said that i am going to have my hands full as she has very thick fur, she is only 14 weeks and not to coap. yet, she fights me every step of the way. Trying the CC system today...oh boy

RMKC,
Rosi has such an adorable face!!
My male has the thicker wooly coat and I finally gave up and started having him cut in a Westie cut. It has made my life alot easier.

I too use mane and tail on my horses, my dogs and myself and it works great. I use Johnson's no more tangle for knots and one, two, three there out.

I agree CC Ice is not for to get out tangles - it's to prevent them. I used Johnsons No More Tangles on Cheri when she was getting them - now I use a light spray of the Ice on Ice and no more tangles ever - You only need a very small amount - it's a Finishing Spray -

LittleIzzy - your baby is just adorable - I noticed your avatar too - your baby there looks alot like my Chanel....here ..I'm playing with a new frame program -

red98vett,
You know, the first time I saw a picture of Chanel, I thought the same thing. Who knows, they may be from the same blood line. I see that you are in Houston, I am only a little less than 2 hours from there.

I will try the Johnson No More Tangles. I use to use that on my daughter years ago, I don't know why I have not thought of that for my yorkies. Great idea.

As far as the Ice on Ice, I am beginning to think I am using it way to heavy. I kinda soaked Mia in it when she was wet, then dryed her and added a little more before brushing. I think I will try lightling misting and see how that goes. I will update the results on that in a few days when she gets another bath.

Thanks bunches.
