This has been discussed before. There are times my GWP's fur gets darn full of the evil sticky leaf plant aka Pega Ropa. (a type of sticky plant proper name Mentzelia Desertorum)

I wade through the tangled plants starting low and working upwards with a wide gap metal comb. By the end of the mearns season the dogs loose hair but I prefer this way to cutting off their hair before the season.

Last year was the worst. There are two dogs in this pic. One friend said it looks like they are wearing ghillie suits:
