Brushing Maintenance and Matted Hair

Wavy, curly, straight hair... it all gets matted, but it can also be prevented. Healthy pet coats require love and attention, your dogs hair depends on it.

My dog just has a little matting, can you brush it out?

Answer: No, but we can start over on a new healthy coat... Heres how.

Sometimes they are hard to see until the matted hair becomes a big knot. 

These knot are painful and irritating to your dog. It can make it difficult for oxygen to reach the affect area's skin and can pull. 


By the time the matting has developed, it is too late to properly groom the affected area. 


The area in which matting starts to develop the quickest is behind the ears, between paw pads, under the legs and neck. 


What to expect from your dogs grooming at Bohemian Spaw if they are matted.


As much as we would love to just brush out small knots and keep a longer coat. Some knots are past the point of no return and will have to be shaved down to start over with a fresh coat. 


If they are in areas that are not normally visibly (Under legs, small area behind ears) those we can cut off without having to shave down the whole dog. 

  • You will be informed at the point of drop off if your dog has mats and will need to be trimmed.
  • If there are mats that weren't seen and caught at the point of bathing, we will call you to inform you of the mats and that a shave will be required.
  • Cutting off matted hair is a slow process and puts more wear on the tools. A fee of $10-$30 will be added to the groom depending on the size of the dog and work needed. 
  • You will be asked to sign a matted dog waiver. Since the hair is tight to the skin and will get pulled during by the clippers, small nicks can happen. (We do our best to reduce nicks by going slow)

My dog always got so stressed out at other groomers! Too many dogs and too much time spent in a crate. He comes back happy and adorable from Bohemian Spaw!

Consistent brushing with a pin brush will greatly reduce matting on your dog. Highly recommended after outdoor play.

A good grooming schedule will ensure a healthy coat, reduced matting, and a comfortable groomable pet. 4-6 weeks in between grooms is common.
