I loved the video on keeping up with their fur. Love the background noise of the dogs playing. It’s always a happy sound to hear our fur babies playing.

It is💗 one of my favorite parts of the day.

I love how he won't look at the camera or the groomer, almost like he's tolerating it all. Same coloring as my little girl

Yes, he's exceedingly tolerant of my videos 🤣

That's a nice thick coat for the winter. My dachshund had a flatter coat, but had some of that wooly undercoat too. You're really handling that dog good, he's so calm and easy.

beautifu pup and you're a wonderful Mom!

Thank you so much for doing this video. I have a miniature shaded cream who is neutered and now I know why his fur can get much too thick and fuzzy. It is less smooth than an intact male. A slicker brush alone does not do the job although it does prevent mats for the most part . I bought a grooming stone and his fur looks much better. I will get a rake next after seeing your video. I reduce his "puff balls" on his legs (they can get very thick and puffy) with thinning sheers but the rake will help here, I think.

​@@sunflowerdachsThank you. The coat rake I have now bought is working to make his coat sleeker and far less fuzzy.

awww❤ he’s a good boy! looks like my Hickory Dickory Dach 😊

So cute!

What a beautiful, unusual colour coat Duncan has.

Duncan is so well behaved. I was wondering if you use a cordless little trimmer like a peanut to get the ear hair or do you scissors

I use blunt end scissors... The trimmers tickle them too much.

Why is their neutered coat different? What a beautiful Dachshund you have.....thank you very much for this important information!

Because the lack of hormones causes their undercoat to overgrow and can also affect the texture.

Thank you very much for this video, well presented :) Our long haired red has a spay coat which has overgrown which I admittedly put down to not enough maintaining. The fluff feels like a complete overcoat now, is excessive and as you mention - is predominately around the legs and shoulders. Would you suggest the same kind of rake to get him back on track? I have thinning sheers as well and also wondered if I should start with the thinning sheers before or after a big session of using the rake? Thanks.

I would actually start with the rake and do little section by little section. You'll be able to see the healthy coat underneath. Id use the scissors for shaping and trimming behind the ears and feet.

would love a video that is more than just brushing. Like how to trim.

Hi! Love this video - so many good tips, especially for me as a first-time longhair owner (we already have a short-hair). We recently adopted our long-hair girl and I'm just getting into learning how to groom. Would you be able to share what set of scissors you use? There are so many to choose from and its a bit overwhelming. Duncan is SO cute! Thanks

I have a long hair doxie, male, neutered. He has REALLY curly hair in his lower legs- like a poodle! I brush him well & he gets bathed with a shampoo for curly dogs. Gets good healthy food. Lately his coat is dull & I don't understand it unless shampoo for curtly hair causes that. Mats terribly with regular dog shampoo. Do you have any suggestions please?

He may need his coat thinned out and a deep conditioning treatment. Sometimes their coat hold onto undercoat because of being fixed.

What brand of the rake brush do you reccomend ?

It's an Andis rake, there are 2 sizes, fine toothed and coarse toothed, I start with the coarse, then fine and finish with a shedding block, kinda looks like a punice stone.

Great video. Could you tell us where you purchased the rake???

Does a spay coat lose softness? How exactly is it different?

@sunflowerdachs

The undercoat overgrows. It's more fuzzy and dull.

How can I add shine my cooper coat I’ve tried salmon oil in his food, but it doesn’t help. I’ve also tried coconut oil, but it seems to make him look sticky

Sometimes it's about getting the old dead hairs out of the coat and doing deep conditioning treatments. He may need a significant amount of hair stripped out in order to let the healthy hair shine. Feel free to message me on Facebook with pictures of him and I can try to help.

Such beautiful Doxies! How do you keep their weight down? My boys are fat and need to lose 2-3 pounds and they always want what I'm eating. I feel so bad that they're heavy but I also feel guilty eating in front of them. 😢

You could keep some veggies to give them while you're eating .... Or stuff a kong with some yogurt and freeze it.
