Doggy shampoo for sensitive skin.
What do you all use? The one I use at the moment is supposed to be for sensitive skin, and doesn't flare her up which is good, but it does have a very chemical smell to it. Want to find something that smells a little sweeter and more natural in ingredients! Any ideas?

Re: Doggy shampoo for sensitive skin.
first thing first does she really need a bath? mine get about two a year unless they roll in something nasty. aloa or cocunut oils are very good so look out for them but one i know that works is epi sooth https://www.google.co.uk/#q=epi+soothe+dog+shampoo. friends dog has very sensitive skin and this worked wonders and even removed alergines in the coat. but tbh its whatever works best for your dog. if she is hyper sensitive i would suggest asking manufacturers for samples and dabbing on the tummy area before covering the dog in it hoping for the best

Re: Doggy shampoo for sensitive skin.
Hey Nath! She gets bathed roughly 3 maybe 4 times a year. We walk on dartmoor and she's forever rolling in horrible stuff and falling in bogs!! We generally hose her off in the garden if it's just mud, but she gets quite stinky after one too many bogs lol! Her skin is generally pretty good now that she's on grain free food, but normal shampoo makes her very pink! Thanks for your suggestions

I think the oatmeal will be perfect rach, that's exactly why we use it for Darcy because of her sensitive skin and we've never had a problem

I use animology white dog and so happy I bought another one. They also do a sensitive derma dog one. I'm not at home now so can't give connection but amazon and others sell them. It's gentle but usually I just wash her with water as well

We only ever give Rocky a rinse in warm water as he doesn't get to roll in the smelly stuff that often, if I were to use a doggy shampoo though I think we would use the one Hayley suggests above.
