Lexi is pure white, and seems to attract dirt everytime she plays outside. We use a product called " Liquid Sliker mat eliminator and detangler" every time we bath her. If she gets dirty, we let her dry and brush and comb her, the dirt seems to just fall off her. Liquid Slicker is also fantastic to assist in eliminating matting and makes combing and brushing a breeze ! Our groomer suggested this product and we find it to be fantastic. She dries faster and seems to shed water when she is caught in the sudden Florida rains or runs thru the sprinklers. http://www.kimlaubecoshop.com/liquidslickerspecialty501freeshipping...

Just a light mist sprayed before drying, the product will last forever...........it will change your Doodle life! We bought a gallon, but I suggest that the smallest size is more practical, you just mist it on and rub it in to her coat..
I bought this product & used it last night while bathing my doodle & it didn't get the tangles out at all. I followed the directions. Can you give any further advice on what you did. Maybe I am missing something. My doodles hair is alot like a Golden & not much curl at all, maybe his hair is just not right for the product.
Sorry the product didn't work. We towel dry Lexi, mist it on and it seems to make her dry faster under the blow dryer, and the comb seems to glide thru her hair. She is bathed every ten days, give or take, and seems to stay cleaner as well. Brushing eliminates most outside dirt.
prior to bathing did you brush out your dog so that there were no mats? This product does not release mats it just helps keep the wet hair from tangling during the drying process.
I agree, prior to bathing brushing is important or the matting just seems to get worse. We comb Lexi prior to her bath, also....we have found that showering is much easier then bathing. Actually, that is Barbara's job, she has Lexi trained so when she opens the shower door she walks in and is bathed. I take her out of the shower, towel dry and do the hard part which is the blow out and combing.
