Could you suggest something I might be able to put in my MS coat to keep it more managable, and less matted.
His coat is really cottony, and when ever I brush it, it gets all staticy. I feel bad he is so good for his brushings but it is almost like it doesn't do anygood to brush him, it just gets worse. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

Well I must say that this is a first. ?Our best guess would be that this is probably is not related to the MS but to the overall environment. ? Some areas produce a lot my static cling. ?

This might sound a little strange but take a non scented bounce and rub it gently over your babies coat and this will remove the static electricity in the fur. ?It really works and will not harm your baby.

Otherwise, as I mentioned it's not your baby but the overall environment, temperature, humidity, dryness etc.

Hope this helps and let us know how it comes out if you decide to try the bounce.

Well I tried it, Thank you, it helps to get the mats out, but unless I followed him around with the bounce he would just mat up worse. The funny thing is, it only happens in the Fall and Winter, so to cure my problem I have his skirt groomed really short. It is a little colder for him during the cool months but he is so spoiled he never stays cold long:)
Thanks for the tip
