As a Coonie slave, I can confirm that this is a difficult task - their fur is so very dense that you cannot simply part the fur with your fingers to see the skin - nor will blowing hard do the trick on my boy. I have to use a moistened flannel to flatten the fur and then part it with a grooming comb.

Surprisingly, their fur is easy to brush and does not matt easily.
