I am looking for advice for Morrell. He has these BIG gynormous mats in his fur (on the top of his back). The biggest one (the size of my 3 middle fingers put together) is the one that I want to deal with the most. I can't cut it with barber sheers for fear that I will cut him if he moves (the mat is very close to his skin). I bought a funny gizmo at the pet store today (a straight edged razor in a special holder). I tried to cut through the mat (with a sawing motion) and gave up (Morrell was getting annoyed with me and I wasn't making any progress).
Any suggestions?? I could wait until he goes to the vets. . . . but I was hoping that I could manage this on my own.
