Hello Everyone,
I just got a second Newfie and she was so matted, that they had to shave her all the way down. I got 3 separate opinions, because I didn't want to do it, but everyone said she had to be shaved. She is 2 1/2. I'm transitioning her to Orijen Six Fish from the Alpo that she was on. Is there anything I can do to help the new coat come in better? Supplements, raw eggs, etc. I've been massaging and brushing her daily to stimulate the oil glands. From what I've read, it seems to vary greatly form dog to dog as to how the hair grows back, but I would like to do what I can to help it. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!
Scott
