Afghan Hound - Matting

Should you happen to find a mat in the dogs coat - dont panic. You may be able to pull it apart with your fingers or split it with scissors or anothr special tool. Spray "The Stuff" into the mat, work it into the matt with your fingers and let it sit for at least ten minutes. Attempt to pull it apart with your fingrs and brush out the area. If this doesn't work then use a pair of scissors or a detangling tool or matt splitter and use a sawing motion from the skin outward and downwards. Never, Never Cut The Mat Out Of The Coatthis leaves a hole in the wonderful coat and you should have purchased a Saluki. Promptly remove twigs, leaves and any other foreign objects from the dogs coat to avoid matts.
