Matted dogs..pretty much any groomer that has worked for a while will have to groom dogs in this condition, and sadly quite frequently. As you can see the first couple of photo's show what looks like a soft unmatted coat, the next 2 photo's are the same bits of coat but after they have been clipped off! Solid matting underneath. So many owners think they are doing a good job brushing but they are just brushing the top of the coat. You really need to follow with a comb to get down to the skin and you should be able to part the hair and see skin. It's a great idea to check with a professional groomer occasionally even if you groom at home, just to make sure you're not missing any tricky to reach areas.
