| Crazy Grooming Question!!!!! Ok . . . I am a fairly new yorkie owner, and I am wondering about matting. Do the silky coats mat less? My furbutt . . . knock on wood . . . (knocking on my head LOL) . . . does not get matted. Now he is only seven months old . . . and he does have some hair. Is it mainly the cottony coat that mats so badly? Sorry if this is a "crazy, stupid, newbie" question!

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Silk coats are generally much easier to maintain. Puppy fur and cotton coats are worse for matting

Donating YT 30K Club Member | My silky girl rarely mats and is a breeze to care for, my 2 cottony coated ones, mat a lot and it is hard to keep them mat free.
