Kizzy hasnt had any mats yet but if she does I think I will try that. Its something in the oil in the peanut butter. I guess it make the hair oily and there fore it makes the gum oily and that cuts it loose. I'm not sure if this would work in a puppys hair from a mat but like I said, I will try it in Kizzys if she gets matted places. she is only 4 months now so she isnt getting mats yet.

I haven't tried the peanut butter but I have thrown Reagan in the bath with mats before. When I condition her I will work the matts out then, when the conditioner is still on. I've heard to make sure they don't have matts before you give them a bath but I didn't have any problems. I'm not telling you to do this though but what might work is just put some conditioner on the matts then try to comb them out when the conditioner is still on, not actually give her a bath. You can even water the conditioner down just a bit to make it a little easier to work with.

Your pup is so cute. Reagan was a little over a year old when she first went to the groomer, last Nov. She hasn't been back since then either. I trim her ears bottom nails etc, so I don't have to take her much. It just depends on what you want done. If she looks good to you leave her alone, if you want something done that you can't do take her in. She looks good to me though, so cute. |
