    What can I use to stop ear hair from knotting?

    Livia has knots that are starting at the skin right behind her ears – where the hair is really soft…

    A brush and a comb.

    Sorry dont mean that to sound funny but the only thing thats STOPS knots is either NO hair or brushing regular – deep proper down to the skin brushing – and yep that hair there is a complete bitch to keep knot free, having some of it trimmed off will help.

    Get the brush and comb out naughty naughty, there is nothing except water that you can put on her coat anyway as all the bottles of crap are banned for use in the showring by the KC

    A normal dog comb

    Was on the list of convo with you next week Suz – on what brushes I need  🙂

    I did have a slicker, but it broke  ::) havent had a chance to replace it yet

    #73590

    Hun your talking to a dog groomer is no such thing as a normal dog comb  ;D so what sort? Metal plastic pins that roll or what? wide thin? combs are SO important – got to have the right type though  :ok:

    You can buy a slicker off me next weekend got some at the shop – and combs  😀

    its metal teeth, plastic handle, got 2 lengths to the teeth- thats all I can tell you  ;D

    #73592

    two lengths as in one long tooth then one short then one long that what you mean?  If so then dunno bout Val but i dont like those – will show you a better one  😉

    Mind is a miracle if ANY dog owner ends up buying the right comb – pet shop round here sold one of my poodle owners a bristle brush – saying thats just what you need  ???  ::)

    I so agree I personally dislike combs with handles, Beardie clubs always sell their own as there is nothing that you can buy in the pet shops.

    Whenever have you heard of an assistant in a pet shop that knows anything about anything.
