Just thought I would put this up in case anyone else is struggling with knotty matted spaniels!
I'll hold my hands up... I've been a bad mummy... I was brushing montys ears but didn't realise that I wasn't getting to the under layers. Cue Monty's ears turning into giant Pom poms and me feeing very guilty indeed!
After going at them with the matt splitter they looked better but not 100%. Ordered some cowboy magic detangler from Amazon and I can now comb through the whole of his silky ears!
Can highly recommend... Can also be used on humans but I've yet to try it!
