Grooming > Coat upkeep after a shave?

| Barked: Sat Jun 4, '11 7:52pm PST |  |  |  |  | Slicker brushes will get out knots and the like? Her ear and butt hair are prone to matting.
I've never used one before as we're a pin comb and pin brush household. I thought slicker brushes just pulled out undercoat. |  |  |  |  |

Grooming > Coat upkeep after a shave?

| Barked: Fri Jun 3, '11 4:05pm PST |  |  |  |  | My Mom has a double coated (triple maybe, who knows) dog whose coat is in pretty rough shape. I'm not there but I imagine the undercoat is matted. I recommended that she take the pooch into the groomer to see what can be done but I'm almost positive that the dog will need to be shaved.
So my question is, what tools should she use to maintain the coat after the shave? The fur is long and super thick (she's a Retriever/Border Collie/Australian Shepherd/Who-knows-what-possibly-a-bear mix). I recommended a Zoom Groom for shedding and a pin comb for tangles, but I've never dealt with a shaved coat so I don't know what do really.
I know she won't be comfortable using a comb with a blade unless she absolutely has to use one. Her mobility isn't the greatest and she'd be afraid she'd hurt the dog. Knowing her, she probably would and hurt herself in the process.
Thanks in advance! |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Wed Mar 9, '11 3:34pm PST |  |  |  |  | I read something awhile back that indicated iodine actually *evaporates from things like kelp and sea salt. Trying to find that again....
*Evaporates is probably the wrong term, but whatevs.
ETA: Meh, can't find the specific article I read before. I did come across a quip that said kelp is rather high in bromide and it very well may cancel out the iodine in a kelp supplement. I wonder if I can get any info from Solid Gold about this... |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Wed Mar 9, '11 3:18pm PST |  |  |  |  | You can feed quarters for bone and fill in the rest of the meat requirement with red meat.
I, personally, like to get bone from different critters. The mineral makeup differs depending on the animal; this is the same reason I feed organ from multiple animals.
Here we do mostly red meat bones like pork (hocks, riblets, country style ribs), lamb (shoulder), mutton (shanks and shoulders), and goat (shanks and shoulders again). Also whole small fish (sardines, mack, etc)provides bone.
I wouldn't consider the smoothie as part of his diet. It's a fine treat though. Sedona eats fruit and yogurt with me. Scratch that, she eats a bite of most everything I eat. But I don't count that as part of her diet. It's just a treat. If he isn't having problems with the smoothie, then cool beans. |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Wed Mar 9, '11 2:34pm PST |  |  |  |  | I got an e-mail telling me that Sedona was Dogster's Dog of the Week! Yay!
When I told her about the honor she was pretty happy about it.
Then I told her about all the gifts, messages, and pup pal requests she got. She was really excited and wanted to say thanks and give everyone a big high five.
She'd also like to know if being Dog of the Week means she gets extra treats. Does it? |  |  |  |  |
