| Conditioner? My little guy itches a lot after grooming, he is VERY sensitive to shampoos and conditioners. Does anyone have a homemade conditioner recipe that works on the hair? Want to try to limit chemicals and see if it helps! Thanks

| Taz has no underlying issues. We have been to two different vets and the only options medically is allergy shots and we don't really have the money for this, so I am trying to find a cheaper at home fix.

| Thanks for the suggestion. However, Iam looking for something homemade to cut back on costs. We can't afford to spend any extra money, but we have stuff in our kitchen.

| Anything with oatmeal in it tends to be gentle on the coat/skin. I had an older boy with itching/alergy problems and used an oatmeal shampoo on him, worked wonders. Not sure what the mix would be for making a homemade one though, you could google homemade oatmeal shampoo and probably find a lot of recipees
