What is your recommended product

For bathing dogs, esp those that tend to get a bit of dandruff?

I am using a medicated one just now, and it helps a bit, but feel it could be better.

Good idea.

I sometimes used to use Omega 3, fish oil.

I shower her off and give her a good brush, and when I had access to a garden she was hosed off, she liked it really She doesn't get dry skin and I've found when I did bath her she smelt worse!!!

Hi, yeah, when I said bathe, I really meant with a shower head/shower, to get a good rinse going.

As little as possible! Dempsey HATES water so I try to avoid baths as much as poss. I use John Paul Oatmeal Shampoo (Sensitive Skin Formula) cause BTs are known to have sensitive skin, followed by a John Paul Oatmeal spray on conditioner, which you just brush through & leave. They're expensive, but you use very little. I've had the shampoo for about 18 months & it's still only about half empty.

Will check that out, thanks.

Ti amo is very good when getting washed!

I wish Dempsey was. As soon as he gets wind of him having a bath he scarpers! It's really difficult to get him in the bathroom, let alone the bath.

She has never been in my bath, mind you

Milo gets almost weekly baths with baby shampoo because he just can't resist and puddle, bog, pond or any other such ponging wet and/or muddy mee lol! And boy does he smell fab after lol!! x I used to use herbal essences 2 in 1 (!)on my other dogs (rip) and they had a lovely feel to their coat.

Is that for people, usually?

He's licked the Sudocrem off, but has eaten the tablet.

Wrong thread

So you used a shampoo that is usually for your own hair, for yer dog?

Have I got it yet, and do I win a prize?

you got it lol!! I'm sure there's probably a reason not to ie it's for humans NOT doge but it did bring them up great, should get some for MIlo i've sold it to myself that idea lol!!

omg just read post before where I wrote it should have read ummy mess what is wrong with me it should have originally read MUDDY MESS !!!!

I use baby shampoo for mine and I also put a cap full of oilatum in to condition the skin and a shinny coat

I use a natural oatmeal shampoo, no soap and its great for soothing itchy skin

Well that has just answered a question I was going to ask - think I'll go with Gems suggestion as both are products which I have at home already. Thanks
