| Any tips on de-tangling? Does anyone have tips on how to detangle thier coat? Buster HAAAAATES being brushed, it is always a struggle. I noticed today that on his side he has a few knots. Any tips on how to get them out without hurting him? Thanks |

| Oh the fun..... i spray a bit of johnsons detangler on my smallest guy, his enemy is any brush/comb. If i leave them down he marks them straight away!! I give him a doggy massage before and after grooming to relax him !!

| I too use Cowboy Magic and Bruce has a somewhat cotton coat, but it makes even him look like pure silk...Until he messes himself up 20 minutes later.

| I use a the detangling solution made by Biolage. It is for people and I always avoid their face and eyes, but this stuff does wonders......... and it isn't a harsh conditioner. It really helps on Shelby & Seymours long coats. We also use Ice On Ice for in between bathes.

| I bought Cowboy Magic at our Tractor Supply store. I think Southern States feed store would have it. It is sold where horse produsts are sold.

| use a really good leave in conditioner and take your time detangling so there is less pain. Take a small section at a time. Hold the hair by the root to avoid too much pulling. |
