| Farm animal products Just want to say first I am not telling people in anyway to do this. I am just stating what I do!!!! Anybody scan farm animal products for use on their dogs? I do this all the time and wondered if anybody else did. I've been trying different horse shampoos for about a year now and just today found a flea product that it labeled for horses but EXACTLY the same brand as a dog brand but different package. I find so many things for horses that you can use on dogs only it is cheaper in the horse version. The Flea spray I got today was HALF the price for a bottle the same size. Same ingredients same company but the horse stuff was different label. If you looked close the horse bottle had small print saying OK for dogs. Oh amd I also buy wormer in big size and save tons. They have the same stuff in the dog aisle in a tiny little bottle for dogs for one price and a big old bottle of the same stuff in farm animal aisle for way less per ounce. SAME company same ingredients. The farm bottle just needs me to do the math for the right dosage per pound.

| I steal my horses show products for Twinkie, particularly the absorbine "Showsheen" (only $10 for a huge spray bottle). It works WONDERS for detangling my horses looong tail (that drags a foot and a half on the ground) and it makes his coat so slippery and shiney, it's perfect to use on Twinkie! I have considered trying horse shampoos because horses have very sensitive skin.... and Twinkie's skin gets dried out and flakey very easily.
