Poodle Crossbreeds have gorgeous looks that require regular professional maintenance and care at home. Just 5 minutes, daily makes all the difference in keeping your dog's coat tangle free between salon grooms. We provide the tools and advice on how to keep coats tangle free between professional grooms in 3 simple steps: Step 1: Slicker - Use our Doodle Slicker to brush in sections through the coat and remove, loose or dead hairs to help prevent the formation of knots and matting. ~ Start at the top of your dog?s body and work in sections down to the toes and tail. Ensure you brush all areas of your dog?s body using our guide to see which are most prone to matting. Step 2: Comb - Use our Doodle Comb to find and release knots and tangles in all areas of your dog?s coat. Comb in sections, through the coat all the way to the lower layers next to the skin. Comb all areas of your dog?s body using our guide to see which are most prone to matting. Step 3: De-matter - Use our Doodle de-matter for knots and tangles that cannot be combed through. Hold the hair at the root to prevent pulling the skin and use short strokes to gently comb through the knotted area. For very dense matts, rotate your wrist to produce a sawing action. For knots bigger than a pea, contact your groomer rather than trying to detangle it yourself....
