Hi!  Welcome to BPO, Tanya!  Yes, BPO is extremely addicting, but I like to think that it's healthy, too.   ;)   I'd love to see pics of your pup, I bet that she's beautiful.  Maybe we can see some Molly & Jigs pics...hint, hint!

Welcome Tanya! Where are you originally from? Sounds pretty Russian to me! Are you? Any ways, this is a great place to be!  Welcome!

I guess I'd better get off my duff. ;D  I posted a pic but it's been a month or two now.  I've been planning to take some new ones of our three.  In particular I want to post a before and after of Sammy.  He was 68# in January when he was taken into Pyr Rescue after some $&%$*# literally tried to starve him to death.  He came to us in February and when I last weighed him in April he was up to 87# and he's gained more since.  He's looking and feeling so much better now, so we're really happy for him.  I'll see if I can take some tomorrow.  Hubby helped me figure out how to post them last time, I'll see if I can do it without help this time.   ::)  ;D

I'm glad that you asked this question and I need some advice, too.  I need a good spray-on, leave-in type of detangler for Sammy's coat.  He was so emaciated and malnourished when we got him that his coat was very dry and tangly.  Although Animal Control had shaved him down to almost the skin on his torso, the fur on his neck & back legs has been very tough to keep smooth.  You can brush it all out and it's literally tangling and trying to mat again the next day.  :o  I've never had a Pyr with a coat that I could barely brush before Sam.  It's improving as his overall health has improved, but I need something mild & gentle that will make it easier to brush while his new coat grows in.  I'd like to see him give me a dog smile when he sees me approach him with the brush & mat rake.  Poor baby.  BTW, I took some new pics and I'll try to post them in a new thread sometime this weekend.
