| Conditioner/Skin question I know very little about this subject and I want to learn more. I think I've read that dog conditioners not only condition hair but also condition their skin. If this is so, and Kaji were to get a little dry skin on his belly, would I then just use more conditioner to keep his skin moisturized, or would I need to go out and buy doggy lotion? (if there were such a thing)

| We use Biogroom Oatmeal Conditioner and Shampoo. I never even knew there was such as thing as dog conditioner, but I'm so glad I found out about it when I did. I started using it because of Kimbo's dry tummy skin as well. Works like a charm!! We bathe our boy every Saturday morning and he never suffers from dry skin anymore.

| I use to use Bio Groom. I really wanted something with a nicer scent, so I was trying Yorkie Splash and Shine (loved it!) and Nootie. But I think experimenting with shampoos and spending 3 days at the beach made Kaji's skin dry. I'm sticking to Splash and Shine, and I'm hoping the conditioner will condition and moisturize his dry skin as well as his cottony coat.

| Never mind I Google it Looks like they have good stuff in it that should not dry his skin. I don't care for artificial fragrance oil though, but it's probably very mild.

| I have a sensitive nose, so every and any fragrance bothers me. This one did too at the beginning, but after a few uses it doesn't! I'm so glad. I really like how clean but not so puffy Kaji is. His hair is much nicer, even for a cottony coated boy.

| rubbing coconut oil on skin is great - i use it for hot spots and have for years and it is a miracle --- the cherry remo is a leave in conditioner after you bath them you put this on the hair and skin and leave on and it smells divine - love it - works great for maltese cotton coat - i use it for my maltese all the time have for years- she is so soft after this too |

| the coconut oil ? No as i give mine coconut oil internally as well and have for years and it is safe - it is a natural antibacterial antifungal the cherry remo you are going to blow dry the dog it is just a conditioner so it would be the same if he licked the conditioner or shampoo after using it now |
