Shampoo/Conditioner Recommendation - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I have been using Pet Silk on Cooper since we got him, and I do like it. Lately it seems that he is getting dry skin from it. Any suggestions on something else I could try?

I just got summerwinds and I really like it! You could try that.

I use Buddy Wash and Buddy Rinse on Jamie. You can get it from Erin @ Barkaholics. She's really great and ships superfast.

I like to switch every few months...I mostly use Coat Handler which is excellent and my absolute favorite. Every once in awhile I use Bless the Beasts which is pretty good. Sometimes I use Minksheen. I don't like the smell but it's excellent at keeping insects away from them.

I prefer the CC products over any others I have tired. But I've also been known to use my own shampoo/conditioner (usually Fruit Garnier Sleek & Shine or Aussie Smoother) on the dogs as well as Suave for kids that's designed to smooth hair.

I use Top Performance Baking Soda shampoo which is good at getting the hair clean, making them silky, but not drying them out. It is also much cheaper than others. (Check PetEdge.com Wholesale prices on exclusive dog grooming and pet supplies)

I've tried so many different ones and have to say "Buddy Wash" and "SheaPet" works best for Daisy. Everything else tends to dry her out.

Make sure you are getting all the soap rinsed out as that will dry there skin as well. We use Crazy Dog its really good on the coat and it helps with mats. They have a working spray also.

I see lots of recs for Espree shampoos and conditioners on the forum. Do an 'Espree' search and see what you think. I am trying to get some, but it is hard to find in the UK and too expensive to ship from the USA. People seem to rave about it, though, so it may be worth trying.

I still love the mink sheen. I got a sale ad today. Minksheen shampoo 16oz for $8.95.(regular $12.95) It says enter code SE8. at the touchofmink.com web site.

I love buddy wash and coat handler. I think it just depends on your babies coat and what works best for them. I had to try quite a few before I found ones that worked for me.

We use John Paul for Pet. It smells good and they look great.
