Question 1

it didnt work because its for horses not dogs it helps groom your horses?

Accepted Answer

Cowboy Magic Detangler and Shine is marketed for horses . . . but it DOES work for dogs, cats, and humans, too.  For my horse, I work a dime-sized spot into his mane, a slightly larger bit into his tail, then brush the hair to remove tangles.  My sister and my friend use it on their dogs.  I have used it on my long-haired cat, although it's a bit harder because the reason he has mats under his front legs is he doesn't like to be brushed there.  I also use it on my own hair, and my hairdresser urged me to keep doing so as it has made my hair stronger and helped it grow longer.  All the same, the product is marketed to horses and is usually sold in feed and tack shops.

Question 2

Does this at least soften the felted mats and ease discomfort, my maine coon has small but hard felted mats in arm pit and thigh, buttox area.

Accepted Answer

I have had two Maine Coon cats and matting is a problem. However, I have found the one tool that has absolutely ended the problems with matting. The specific tool to use is 'Four Paws Instant Mat and Tangle Remover.' Really. I had spent more than a hundred dollars on various tools to de-mat my beautiful Maine Coone boy, but it ended up that this $6 tool combined with the Cowboy Magic that finally enabled me to eradicate the mats and tangles in my cat's coat. It takes patience and time. I found that softening the matted hair with the cowboy magic potion first helped me get rid of several mats per grooming session. Overall, I was able to completely de-mat my cat over the course of two weeks, working on him nearly every day for about 20 minutes. He has been mat-free with a beautiful and full Maine Coone coat for nearly two years. I have since given all the other tools and products to the local humane society and can't say enough good about the quality of Cowboy Magic and this 'miracle' comb. Good luck with your own sweet cat.

Question 3

I plan to use this on my golden retriever. is using the shampoo, conditioner, and detangler overkill?

Accepted Answer

I use cowboy magic most everyday on my Coton and brush him most days.  Cowboy magic is wonderful to help with the matting.    To answer your question I would say yes it's overkill to shampoo condition and use the detangler.    I have had several golden's ( wonderful dogs!) and have never experienced much matting with them.     If I were you I would just use the cowboy magic on non bath days.  It's great for there coats even if you no tangles.

Question 4

Is this something you put on after bathing and then rinse off or is it a leave in product?

Accepted Answer

Clearly I did not read these comments before using the product last night, because I just used it as a wash-out! I first used my regular conditioner on my dog (long, drop coat), then I added a bit of this product (maybe nickel-size at most) applied to the ends of her hair and tail where it's the most dry.... and rinsed both out! I used my regular spray-on conditioner before drying and her hair looks amazing today. I'm curious why people say not to rinse it out... "ever"? I think that a good amount of the silicones (the main ingredients in this formula) remained on the hair even after rinsing. I'm curious to try this in a continuous spray bottle, diluted with water, as a brushing spray for mats (before giving her a bath) or as a fine-mist leave-in conditioner. I don't think I can simply use a dollop of this spread on her via my hands, or her very fine hair would end up very limp.
