I don't know if you're able to get these guys into a bath tub, but an extended period soaking in warm water will make this easier. But the fastest way is probably to use clippers/ scisors. The dogs will look like shit when your done, by they'll suffer a whole lot less than pulling stickies out of their fur.
The older of the two seems to really love plain water and brushies, I just found out the other day. He's also been shedding so it's been more or less easy to just pluck most of it off of him, so he's pretty clean already. I might give him a shampoo bath soon.
But the other one doesn't really seem to like the water or the brushies that much, he'll just as soon try to run away after only like 10 seconds or so. And he's got larger sections of his fur apparently covered in sap.
I don't have the means (or the privileges) to take either of them to a tub unfortunately. And however I go about it, I don't want them running away before a full rinse with chemicals still on their fur. At least the older one will probably like it though.
