Let’s talk matting! 🐶 Matting is densely tangled fur in your dog’s coat that forms when the coat is not brushed frequently enough all the way to the skin. Depending on the severity of matting some can be combed out carefully, but those that are tight to the skin must be shaved. AHH SCARY WORD SHAVED! But it is critical matts are taken out as the matted fur can cut off circulation, cause hot spots and infections! This can be painful and uncomfortable for your pet! So how do we prevent it? 💙 Combing and line-brushing all the way to the skin, the longer the coat = the more frequent brushing required to maintain it. A regular grooming schedule can also help to maintain the length you want, talk to our groomers to learn more! 😊💙
