Havanese Hair Matting

That actually did help but didn t last.

Havanese hair matting.

You will need to practice constant grooming to make sure your dog s coat keeps from tangling and forming clumps. Try to brush your dog daily. Be aware of mats. In order to form the braids gather a small amount of hair over the eye.

Also collars mat and tangle his hair. Yes that works too but you fry the hair making it a frizzy broken mess. But a good quality slicker can help you break up a knot if done right. I used a slicker.

Just make sure that the haircut isn t overly short or the entire look would begin to seem unnatural. To brush first lightly spray one area of the dog s coat with a fine mist sprayer. As long as you use a natural very very gentle human detangler most dogs are. Mix the water with a small amount of conditioner 1 teaspoon is fine or you can use plain water.

The only thing to be aware of when letting your havanese go all natural is that its hair will eventually get matted. As soon as the new hair came in i had knots near the skin. Regularly comb your havanese s coat and check for tangles to avoid dealing with severely matted or tangled fur.

One of the most important parts of grooming your havanese is brushing. Instead gently untangle matted hair with your fingers or with a mat and tangle comb. I thinned out her coat. Your dog s hair will grow long and wavy just like if your havanese dog was a wild wandering mutt.

The havanese has a topknot that is left loose or it can be braided. Try combing your dog out with a fine toothed comb but hold the hair at the roots so you don t pull on your dog s fur. Long hair usually allows the havanese to look more beautiful yet if you want to make them tilts towards the cute and doll like side instead you may want to make their hair very short and fluffy. Does anybody else have this problem with their havanese.

I ve been told that their adult coat is easier to groom but it takes 2 of us about half an hour a day one to hold one to brush and he hates it and he still gets mats of tangled fur around his neck where the collar goes.
