Drop Coats

About

Drop-coated breeds are all about that smooth, flowing finish. Their long, straight or silky coats fall naturally along the body and require regular maintenance to prevent tangles, mats, breakage, and flyaways. For these coat types, go-to essentials include long-pin brushes, pin brushes, metal combs, detangling sprays, conditioning shampoos, leave-in conditioners, and finishing products to protect length and create that polished finish. Popular drop-coated breeds include Yorkshire Terriers, Maltese, Shih Tzus, Lhasa Apsos, Havanese, Afghan Hounds, and Silky Terriers.
