Fenway Has Hair Issues - Can You Please Help?

[Muddy4paws]

They are horrible to get out! and for some reason every newfoundland that comes into work seems to have a tailfull of them I would suggest just trying to brush them out with a brush and comb or even cutting them out if you dont mind the haircut?

After about an hour and a 1/2, I finally got all those sticky burrs out of Fenway's hair. I used a comb, I crushed them, I picked at them. I looked like a monkey (you know...when you see them picking things off of other animals). Fenway's got a grooming appointment on Thursday. He's getting shaved down!

Thanks for the suggestions everybody!

Blah! Tito and Bella have had a few encounters with those, what a pain! If they are not bothing them, I usually leave them for a few days, then when they have dried out a bit, i brush/pick them out. Not fun.

Glad you got them all out. They are a pain aren't they. Nanook & Meko get them all the time & I'm sure Kaige will be next on the list now that hiking season is just around the corner.
For future refference though it is much easier to get them out when the hair is dry, any type of wetness seems to make it only worse.
