: Really course tail and bum region fur.....HELP!
: 4DoggieMom September 18, 2006, 10:38:49 AM
I need some grooming tips for my Newf Finnegan.  The fur on his tail and bum (pantaloons?) region is really course and nearly impossible to get a brush or comb through, even a wide tooth comb.  Anyone have and tips on a tool or product that might work??

Thank you!
Jen

Yep, I have a rake too for Baloo.  It's difficult and I can only do small spots at a time.  I have 2 different kinds of rakes...One is longer tined and great for those areas.

Thank so much everyone!  I have a rake that I use on the rest of Finn's fur but its sooo hard to get the rake through the fur on his tail and bum.  The fur there is a different texture and not soft and fluffy like the rest of his fur.
