| Excess Grooming Products? I'm inundated with Yorkie grooming products that I've purchased and either tired of because the bottles last so long on 10 inches of body or I didn't care for the scent or I don't really need the product/ doesn't work like I expected, not great for a cottony coat etc. What does everyone do with these products? I know I could dispose of them (wasteful) or donate to a shelter. What about an informal product "sample" exchange? I can't wrap my head around the logistics, maybe you all have suggestions? I was thinking like a 3 oz travel sized bottle (so both the recipient and the giver know what to expect and to regulate shipping costs) Might be a great way to get to experience products from companies who don't sell sample sizes without the commitment of a full bottle purchase. Thoughts??

| I've got some products I don't care for either. Too florally smelling. I like the more fruity scents. Can't say as to any product is better or worse for Uni's coat though. They all seem to be doing about the same.

| I think maybe we should list what we have and about how many oz of it. Each person put them in the 3 oz travel size bottles or sprayers. You can request as many as you want, as long as you send out the same. For ex I want three products, I have to send out three. Doesn't all have to be from and to the same person though. I guess a bit of the honor systems gonna have to be assumed here.

| See here is a perfect example. I love floral but not wild about fruity.
