List the grooming products you have not been very happy with and the reason why?

red98vett · 02-12-2007, 05:20 AM

Pure Paws shampoo and Conditioner - I bought it at a Dog Show and didn't like it at all - lucky I only bought samples

.....a friend spent $90 for the whole line and didn't like it either...when I bathed the girls in it - their hair looked dry and they itched so I just tossed it out

chachi · 02-12-2007, 05:25 AM

I use to use Chris Christensen shamooo and conditioner. I just got Biogroom shampooo and conditioner and like it alot better. I use to use miracle coat detangler and like Johnsons no more tangles better.

This isn't really a grooming product, but I was very disappointed. The vet suggested this to help Summerlin with her itching, so I paid $14 for it at Petsmart. It's called DermaCare Anti-Itch Spray for Dogs and Cats. I put it on Summerlin and she still scratches. I don't believe it works at all, and I will be returning it to get my money back...

Another thing I didnt have alot of luck with but other people like is cowboy magic. It leaves Jewels hair gunky. I like deep condioning the hair better.

I have the Biogroom oatmeal shampoo and conditioner. There's nothing wrong with it, but I'm just not impressed with it. I'd like one that would leave her hair more shiny.

Still looking for the perfect shampoo/conditioner.

Try the biogroom bronze luster. It is a color enhancing shampoo and it left Jewels shiny

Same here! I cannot use it on Bobbi because he will look like I poured grease on him.......weighs his hair down and I used the size of 1/2 a pea for his entire body

It works magic on MY hair though.........I bought a big bottle and I ain't about to throw it out

Pipersmommy · 02-12-2007, 06:57 AM

I've been using
Four Paws Magic Coat
Tearless Shampoo w/Sensitive Skin For dogs & puppies
as for a conditioner I use infusium 23. Seems to be working for my 3. My groomer recommended it.

Dawn125 · 02-12-2007, 08:41 AM

I also did not like Chris Christiansen shampoo and conditioner much. I do love their brushes though.

dobiedude · 02-12-2007, 08:44 AM

I use a livestock shampoo called clear choice it is wonderful. It is shampoo and conditioner in one.

dakotama95 · 02-12-2007, 08:51 AM

I use infusium 23 on my furbies and really like it. I had purchased speciality detanglers for pets and I think the Infusium 23 does just as good and is a lot cheaper.

Shadow · 02-12-2007, 08:59 AM

I don't care for the cowboy magic shampoo and conditioner.I t leaves their coat dull and doesn't have a nice smell to it. I love mink sheen. It leaves them shiny and smells great. It reminds me of a manly cologne like Drakar. I ran out and ordered more hope I get it this week.
here is a link to it. Its is a big fat bottle for 12.95 or you can even order a sample for 2.95 and everything they say about it is true. It doesn't leave them dry after frequent shampoos like some do.http://www.touchofmink.com/prod_details.asp?id=15

I tried some Oatmeal shampoo from Petsmart and hated it. It made Ferdinand's skin more dry.

I bought some natural dog shampoo for dry skin at Sprouts a few weeks ago and love it. It's called Head to Tail Aloe Oatmeal Shampoo. I use it with the Mane and Tail Conditioner (but I rinse it out or it leaves Ferdinands fur nasty). The combination leaves his hair really shiny, soft, and smelling nice for a week. It's also helped with his dry skin.

Here's the link to the shampoo http://www.onlynaturalpet.com/produc...oo/133024.aspx
