Default RATE our Grooming PRODUCTS - this will be fun

Since we have a new grooming section - I thought it would be nice to post about the products we all use ...and our own personal reviews ...along with what hair type your yorkie has.....

Chanel has thick cottony hair. Cheri has Silky yet dull hair ....and these are the products I've tried ....how I feel about them.... and how they work for my girls hair type.


I do alot of thinking before I make ANY purchases. People think I spend alot of time on my girls and I really don't.... I don't have alot of hair products & can't afford to try everything I hear about.... but I'm always looking....so this will be interesting.

so Here goes ....I hope everyone can share here - this will be fun.

Chris Christensen Products: I've only tried the Daily Moisturizing Shampoo/Conditioner and Ice on Ice but LOVE it. GREAT for Cottony hair.

After almost 2 years of using it...I haven't found anything yet that works as well on Chanels hair......I'm not as crazy about it for Cheri....but do use it on her too....It can be ordered online at their Main site or also from Gerry with a YT discount at www.imapreciouspup.com

Tropiclean from Petsmart : Worked great on Cheri - so I'd say GOOD FOR Silky hair and smells great

Vitaclean - only sold overseas but I LOVED it for Cheri's hair. Hard to find...a good friend sent me a bottle....(thanks good friend !) For Silky hair - wow - it made Cheri's hair SHINE.

Pure Paws : Not too impressed but heard good things about it...bought samples at a Dog Show....and am glad I was broke at the time and couldn't afford full size... I have a feeling it works better on REAL Silk.

Plush PUPPY Products : I've never used the shampoo or conditioner but have used these leave in sprays....Most were bought 1-1/2 years ago and I still use them....you only need small amounts so they do last.

Plush Puppy SEA BREEZE OIL....I LOVE The Sea Breeze Oil. This is an anti-breakage leave on spray and it worked wonders on Chanels long hair. I don't like it as much on Cheri's thinner hair but it does add shine and prevents breakage...hair feels softer and smells pretty good....Ordered from the PP Main site...My bottle has lasted 1-1/2 years....I only use a tiny amount on Cheri and rub it on with my hands - spray directly on Chanel

Plush Puppy Reviva Coat Mouse: I Like the Reviva Coat Leave on Mouse...for both girls - it's a conditioner foam and the bottle has lasted me a long time - you dilute it with water or use directly...again...ordered from PP Site.

Plush Puppy COAT RESCUE: JUST got this and it's a deep intensive conditioner. From what I heard about it - it's great for deep conditioning and wake up for a tired coat - I'll let you know if I love it...so far... I did put a drop on each girl on their dry coats and saw an instant softness...and it smells like the BEACH ! YUM ! Can be ordered at the main site and I'm hoping Gerry will carry it at www.imapreciouspup.com ... with a YT Discount

Ok...NEXT REVIEW ANYONE ?

I use the Chris Christensen Day to day conditioner and Shampoo and like it real well but next I am trying the gold on gold. I use the Ice on Ice it is a great conditioning spray.

I use Plush puppy Seabreeze oil and love the shine it gives to a coat

When Chachi had allergie problems he used Keratolux medicated shampoo. I got it from my vet and it is good for dry skin or skin with irritations.

NICE Review Chachi - why couldn't I have been short and sweet ? I got SO longwinded I tired out my own self with that long post

That's good to know about the Medicated Shampoo - we see lots of people who's yorkies have skin problems...

I forgot one...

PET Silk LIQUID SILK.....LOVE THE SMELL and it really worked well on Chanel...also on Cheri who is more silky - a drop will go a long way. One bottle has lasted me since Chanel was a baby.

We should post the products we use on our own hair for a laugh....

I use..'EL CHEAPO WHATEVER IS ON SALE' hair products.

Man - we sure love our yorkies !

I like the Vellus products. Have to order them direct from Vellus. Last a long time. Great for silky coats, does not weight them down.
Also like CoatHandlers shampoo.
I've been hearing good thing about the seabreeze oil and will order that soon.
I just received new products today from PetEdge. Made by Ikaria. Haven't tried any of them yet. Has anybody tried them?
And discount? Did you say discount? Where? How much? Next to clearance, discount is my best friend.LOL

Jan...I'm SO GLAD you posted that - Vellus is the products I would LOVE to try myself....

I know people say good things about Coat Handlers too - Pet Edge sells that right ? I've not heard of the other one you mentioned - but when you do use it - you can come back and Review it up for us !!

and some discounts are offered by members of THIS site who sell both clothes AND hair products...I think it's great to order from our members.....more power to them !

Aha !! Just saw your post Pat....thank you ! You are the person I heard about Coat Handlers from...

I agree about ordering from people here. It's kind of like keeping your local neighborhood grocer in business, so the big chains don't swallow them up.

I totally agree !!

I feel so bad...I meant to mention Shanatink - (Shana) of http://www.tinkerbellscloset.com/

She sells Grooming products AND she offers a discount too....
she has a new DEEP CONDITIONER I have yet to try but want to.

Anyone wanting to order from our members here has the bonus of knowing they would steer them in the right direction when ordering....as in very PERSONAL customer service...

Great reviews...great thread, Villette! I have to read and study when I get time.

Hey Villette...that plush puppy coat rescue that smells like THE BEACH...do you suppose Cosmo Kramer had anything to do with that? LOL...sorry...couldn't resist!!!

(If you don't "get" this, it means you must not watch Seinfeld).

LOL Connie....I have never seen one episode of Seinfield...aren't I terrible ? I only watch Crime stuff - so yup...that went right over my head.

I like this thread too - I bet we can comply a great grooming product list and see how everyone Rates what they use ....I would LOVE to be able to afford to try so many things...but can't...so this will help alot for future Wish Lists.

YES !! You go girl - that's awesome.

I really do think they offer quality products and to be able to get it from a YT MEMBER will make it that much more better when ordering. That's great news and congratulations !

Post buddy wash

Hi Guys! I use Buddy Wash shampoo and leave in conditioner. My daughter introduce it to me. She bought hers in Maine but you can go on cloudstar.com to order it. I love it! Sadie doesn't have that long thick coat that other yorkies have {which I am greatful for!} so she doesn't get matted. The Buddy Wash and conditioner is a lavender mint scent. If Sadie needs a touch up before her next bath I just give her a little spray of the conditioner and brush her and she is soft and shiny again!

Lavender scented ? WOW I would love that smell in my life everyday...that sounds really good....I bet that's great on silky coats....
Thanks for sharing - this is really interesting hearing from everyone.
