Hiii!! I need a detox from the male Deadlock community, I'm from Argentina and I'm looking for anyone who wants to talk with me about the game and if possible is from Latin America so we can play together. I don't have many girl friends and I'm kinda scared of making new ones, but I'm kinda tired of only playing with the boys and talking exclusively to them and my irl girlies aren't really into gaming so I feel like I'll be a bother to them when I info dump about my current fave game. I like playing short silly co-ops and I'm willing to play pretty much anything free or if I have the money buy a game.

Today I washed and trimmed my senior dog's hair, I really tried to scrub his paws and gently wash his face but have trouble getting rid with the build up around the mouth and dirt on his paws, He doesn't like brushing around his legs and most of the time I just cut off hair and keep it short to make the general maintenance of his coat easier (also as it's thining keeping it short prevents matting) but even if I do that I can't get rid of the build up and it shows even more with his white fur, any tips or tricks to get rid of it?

My dog hasn't been going to get profesionally groomed due to his age and health (he's 12 years old Maltese and Toy Poodle mix) His skin has become more sensitive and due to how much stress he undergoes during bath time I prefer to do it at home in a controlled space and taking the time he needs.

After he started having some health issues his coat started becoming thinner and thinner and I don't know what to do to help him, due to how thin it is it gets easily tangled but untangling his fur is pretty hard.

What can I do to help him, what tools/products can I get to detangle his hair while it's dry, how should I approach this moving forward?

I've been considering not bathing him until the winter is over so that I can shave him in spring and start growing his coat again, last time I bathed him it only got the hair more tangled and the dirt didn't come all off and I'm worried that if I keep letting my family showering him whenever his hair will get worse. I'm willing to listen/follow any recommendations anyone has for me.
