| What shampoo do you use? I have noticed that Padme looks greasy. I bathe her about once a week or once every 10 days and I have been using Hydrosurge with Oatmeal. I also use conditioner. Am I bathing her too much? Should I use conditioner everytime? I brush her everyday and use pet wipes for in between baths. Any suggestions? I would really appreciate it..Have a great day!!!

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | if she's greasy looking you may not be getting all the conditioner out. personally i don't use conditioner on morgan because it makes her head look greasy after a day. i bath her every week with espree shampoo.

| Padme is very silky so it must be the conditioner. I will use one of the shampoos that you guys mentioned. Thanks so much

| I bought Lexi shampoo called Yorkie Splash made exclusive for Yorkies she too gets very greasy looking on her head and face area. This shampoo is wonderful and she doesn't look greasy anymore at all. Its yorkies of walnut hill....website www.yorkiesofwalnuthill.com I think that's right Hugs Cheryl & Lexi |

| I use Earthbath Puppy Shampoo and the conditioner. It's gentle enough to use every week and the conditioner is very moisturizing. I know there are a lot of shampoos specially designed for yorkies or other breeds with hair instead of fur, but I haven't tried them. |

| Be careful with any type of human shampoo, it has a very different pH than dogs need. |

| We use Cloudstar Buddy Wash and Buddy Rinse and it is fantastic!! I know what you mean about the greasy feel, I only condition Snickers' body and not his head/face. I use the shampoo on his whole body, head, and face being careful not to get close to his eyes. Smiles- Snick & Viv

| We use Paul Mitchell shampoo for dogs, and Redkin's leave-in conditioner. It is a great combination for us!

| I use Biogroom Fluffy Puppy (LOVE the smell!) and Biogroom Silk creme rinse. I am thinking of holding off on the creme rinse on the next bath, though, as I've noticed, like others, that Zoe looks a little greasy after a couple of days. She is silky coated - so I think that's why as I rinse and rinse and then rinse again - so I know I'm not leaving creme rinse in... |
