My suggestion is just leave it alone until the weather gets better, or separate a little at a time--- the mats will still be there in a couple of months! You...
I have a two yr old bergamasco that has never been de-matted. He was just rescued from a shelter two days ago. I don't think we can save the coat.. any...
Thank you! That was my inclination as well. I was, however concerned that under the mats her skin may not be able to breath and I don't want any hot spots or...
Definitely just try and do a little at a time-- everyone's right, the mats will definitely be there tomorrow! Maybe try to do the worst sections first and...

Penelope, I have a Spanish Water Dog also. You can try Show Sheen to spray on the mats. I find it works pretty well when my dog gets matted. I usually have a ...
Honestly the best thing to do is to start over with her coat. Clip her off if you'd like to be kind to her-please don't rip her hair apart just for the sake...
Patty, I was wondering if you have ever corded a Spanish Water Dog? Their coat is a little different than most other breeds. Check out _www.swdclub.org_ ...
If you like a corded SWD, you have to check out this photo. It's the photo that attracted me to the breed. The fact that the brown colored SWD'S bleach in...
I'm new to the group, and am hoping at some point to get a standard poodle and try to do some cording on it. I saw where there is the book put out by the Puli...

Hi, My friend was watching the 2007 Westminster show & said he saw a dark- colored corded dog about 15 inches tall at the shoulders. I told him that it must've...
I didn't see the show...Havanese? But that would be too small for the description. Really sounds like Pulik: Dogs ideally s/b 17", bitches 16"; only solid...
The havanese can be shown in either a brushed or corded coat. The havanese that took Breed this year at the Garden was Ch. Fuzzy Farms The Devil Made Me Do...

It was a Havanese. You can look up all the breed judging and breed and group winners, and watch videos on the Westminster site. I think this is the dog you...
Thanks to all who replied "Havanese". He confirmed that was it. Is their fur different than other small long-haired dogs that resemble them? (such as the...
A Havanese can be corded if it has the right kind of coat( overcoat to undercoat), as I understand it. I In a cording coat, the dog has curly hair, and then...
Some Havanese have a curlier/frizzier coat than others thus allowing for cording. The Havanese with the silkier straighter coat would be difficult but not...
I've been letting my male poodle grow out and has about 3-4 inches of length allover. I keep him bathed and combed out/hair in topnot. I'm wanting to cord him...

We have been experiencing a musty odor from our corded poodle and feel that we would like to cut his cords off for the summer and start again. Does anyone...
Dale, Why not just bathe your poodle's coat? When I started cording my standard, I let her stay "dirty" for months. She did have a musty odor as well ...
