| I feel so bad, Teri. I how heartbreaking this must be. You have worked so hard to keep Galen's coat beautiful. I have a couple of conditioners that are really good with matts. They would most likely get to you by Monday. Galen has such a gorgeous face, and he will look beautiful if you have to cut him down.

| One of my flaws as a doggie mommy is brushing my dogs as much as they need. I let my big shih tuz hair grow out one time... it was beautiful !! BUT it would get matts if I did not brush correctly--I did find a de tangling spray worked really well. The other thing is to be sure you have a comb or brush that is getting all the hair, sometime I was brushing but a matt was forming near the skin. I too have left my dogs with friends and just cried when I came home. I just kept telling myself that they were happy and safe, I could deal with the hair and it would grow back. Good luck

| Try a tangle teazer brush , I think they work wonders on matts , at first you don't think it doing anything and then it seems to work it's way through the matt.

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Update . . . .Well I tried very hard to get one of the mats out. I worked on it last night. i got up this morning and worked on it. He cried. I could not not put him through it. I can not hear him cry. It broke my heart. I talked to the near by groomer that was very good with him. She told me to come in at 12 to take a look to see what she can do. Se just kept shaking her head. She was like I am so sorry. He has to get shaved. She is going to leave his face with top knot( I was able to at least get that mat out. Under his chin and side of cheek has a big mat. She is going to do her best and make him look good. She is also going to leave his plume. That was the only area he did not have a mat. I got back into the car and cried. Silly.

| I'm really sorry, Teri. You made the right choice for Galen, though. You don't want him to fear being groomed, and I couldn't stand it either if I was hurting my little girl. PM me your address and which ones you'd like to try, and I would be very happy to send you some. I can't wait to see Galen. He's going to look gorgeous this way, too, Galen is going to look so tiny.

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | Oh poor baby Galen, poor Teri. He always looked so beautiful and he still will. No need for tears it grows back. I don't know what your dog sitter did or didn't do but Yikes !! He will look darling with or without his long hair. You may even find that you prefer him in a shorter cut. Maybe a Joey cut. Cant wait to see a pic. of the new Galen.

| Ohh...Teri he will be ok and his hair will grow back. I'll just bet he's as beautiful with short hair as he is with long. Post pictures when you can.
