In this video, I am using this de-matting tool very carefully. amzn.to/3OQ0p7j It’s important to follow the specific steps demonstrated in this video for safe, successful results.

Your videos helped me out so much last year when I had no idea I was brushing my baby girl the wrong way. I would find matts here and there. Then I would have to get her hair cut low. I don’t like that look on my Goldendoodle. Today I brush her every two days with that be coat king and comb. Most days I just use the comb to make sure no knots and finish with the brush to make her more fluffy. I love my dogs hair long, so it is very important to me that I take care of it the right way for her

You are a saint in my eyes. My poodles and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

I love your channel, your clear instructions are always on point. I follow many rescue channels on fb and KZfaq and I recommend your channel to them. ♥️.

Great proof of doing what needs to be done!

Just a reminder to novices, HOLD THE HAIR so that there is slack between your fingers and where the follicles are rooted. Between your fingers (pinching the hair) and the ends, you can pull a bit. Pulling without breaking the tension to the root will cause major discomfort. Dogs have millions of follicles per square inch depending on the breed. And some dogs have very long down hairs. One pluck for us is like ripping out part of your scalp for dogs. Also, if mats are especially thick, use a metal tooth comb to stab through the dreadlocks while shampooing. Don't go to heavy with shampoo as some can cause skin irritation in dogs who's skin hasn't had a breath of fresh air in a while.

Thank you 🌈🌺🌎🦖🦕🪨🪐

Wonderful video. Thank you, Amy.

You are amazing, I love you and your patience. GOD BLESS YOU AND WHAT YOU DO FOR US!!! So we can love our furbabies better

This is the method I use to care for my wavy-coated shih tzu also. My silky-coated shih tzu doesn’t have this issue.

I need that tool. I've been using scissors to slice / cut the mat in sections lengthwise and then use a ferminator to work and drag the mat out. I also use a small ferminator on the eyes area to remove the gunk. Works like a charm. Sometimes I can just tug and pull upwards and out, basically dissecting the mat and breaking free the knot and pull the mat out without losing any hair but it's time-consuming.

I thought water made the mats more compacted. Im studying a grooming course and have a lot of doubts 😅

Great video! Thank you so much 🤗

My mom needs one of these for her doodles. She has 4 doodles because her two adults had puppies and she kept two of the puppies. She gave me one, and I do all the grooming at home. I prefer to keep her coat short, I brush her every other day because it’s nice and short. Every two months I give her a full haircut and a bath beforehand but every two weeks I trim her in the places that need touch ups (her paws, butt, face, and vulva because she gets pee on her fur) and luckily she has no mats ever and is nice and clean (well as clean as a 7 month old puppy can be lol) but omfg, my mom’s dogs are so matted and dirty and long haired. Every time I see photos I can just smell the stink from my phone. 😢

Thank you for this video!!!!

I’ve heard that grooming severely matted ears can cause the dogs to do a lot of head shaking when they’re finally taken care of, because sometimes the matting is so bad it cuts off circulation to the ears, and when the matting is cleared out the return of blood flow feels weird and they shake their heads a lot and put themselves at risk of causing a hematoma. Have you ever had this kind of thing happen?

Thank you. This video helped.

Thank you!!! Recently found your channel. ❤❤❤

I have been doing this for years and I just showed some girls in trading his to do this more people should do this!!

I use our slicker brush to get the tangles out of our dogs ears I start from the bottom and work my way up the exact same way and the plus side is the dogs hair is not going to be cut at awkward lengths.

Takes forever. Do you hurt your thumb?

I'm confused. What about the rule "brush the dog hair before the bath, in the bath and after the bath"

Where can I get that brush

Why towel dry?? I blow dry on low n brush my dog’s hair. I also brush daily for maintenance.

we were told by our groomers to NEVER give our Doodle a bath when he has matted hair. They said it will only make the Matting worse. 🥹

Hi, Just discovering you, thanks. In another video you showed dematting two dogs with coconut oil and brushing, saying to brush out dead coat before washing (likening it otherwise to oil change without the filter), but here you say to wash dog first. Does it depend? Thanks!!

I thought washing mats make them worse and tangles them more??

Should you rake & card? Or just do one or the other? My american cocker spaniel is 8 months old.

My great pyrenees has matted hair up against her skin from where her collar lays. How do I get that out?

Shouldn't one use the tool before bathing since getting matts wet and then drying them only tightens them?

I use a steel comb but wondered if useful to buy that for my Shih Tzu pup too- mention its name.

I'm sorry but shouldn't you deshed/dematt dirty? So this way you don't damage the guard hair?

Can you use this on the body for dematting as well or no, we shouldn't?

Were did i buy this comb

Amen

Where can I get this tool?

The title is a bit misleading… this tool removes dead hair, not a way to demat. Actual matting requires different methods to remove😊

❤❤❤

What do you do if you're dealing with a dog that won't allow you to work with their ears?

Comb the ears but shave the dog and save everyone a whole lot of troubles

Start at the bottom then work your way to the top...... it tangles less

What is this tool

Hi, any suggestions for if the dog keeps trying to bite you whilst doing this? 😅

@gogroomer could you please post a link for that tool. Thanks! ❤

I’m what most would consider an AA woman & this is how our hair is. Just a little hint to those who have biracial children or friends. ❤😊

That’s a deshedding tool

Why not remove the dead hair and mats before the bath? I've never heard of bathing before ruff in.

So dangerous the idiots on line are gona hurt their matted dogs

Where do you get this tool At I have A Aussie Doodle I Always have to cut the Matt's out?

As a professional dog groomer, I’m begging you don’t listen to this. The very first thing she tells you is wrong. NEVER bathe a dog without dematting first. The water will set the mat and make it harder to get out. Never use a demat rake on the ear fur. If you mess up, ear skin tears easily and will bleed all over the place. Instead, demat using a 10blade on a clipper and shave the matting off. This will help you avoid putting your dog in unnecessary pain and discomfort just for your own amusement of him looking cute. You can avoid matting by brushing your dog every day like you’re supposed to. If you don’t want to brush your dog every day, get a breed with short hair like a lab or pit bull. STOP NEGLECTING YOUR DOGS AND LETTING THEM GET MATTED IN THE FIRST PLACE. ❤

The tool she is using is meant for pulling undercoat from a husky or German shepherd. It’s NOT meant to use to demat an ear. She should have shaved it off for the comfort of the dog.

Don't use the words "safe" with that tool!!! You will encourage idiots to carelessly use this tool and slice the skin open. And ears are ESPECIALLY dangerous if the user doesn't know what they are doing. The Mars coat king is a fantastic tool and is very effective for its purpose. But make no mistake, it can go very wrong. Please use with extra care. The video shows very well how to position the ear. I'm just triggered by the use of "safe" 👍🏻

I was doing that ALL WRONG 🫣

It's a Groodle! not a golden doodle, a doodle is a man's 🍌

I own an Old English Sheepdog...SLICKER BRUSH IS BETTER!
