| Yes, and I love it. Do a search on this forum and you will see many opinions about it. Some people don't like the slight scent of citronella or cedar it has (which mildly repels fleas). I don't smell that cause I use PetSilk rainforest conditioner after it. I do love the silky feel of both my silky coated and cotton coat doggies using Minksheen. I also love that it doesn't dry their skin.

| Mink sheen says that it is concentrated and can be diluted for "professional" use.I didn't need much to wash Ziva and the bottle I got was watery so it was hard to just use a little, so- I saved a foaming hand soap bottle and used that,diluting the shampoo 4:1 with water and now have an easy to use foaming shampoo! |

| If you are sensitive to smells, you won't like it. It does its job wonderfully, but I couldn't get past the smell. I would put off bathing Uni bc I preferred her stink to the fragrance. I like fruity scents, this was too musky for me. Reminds me of old guys who douse on too much cologne.

| yup, 4:1, its just WAY too strong of a scent for me. If I could get it without the frangrance, itd be the perfect shampoo.

| I love MinkSheen. Wasn't too crazy about the smell at first but it's growing on me. |

| Same here. Now I kind of like it. It certainly makes Piccolo's coat look lovely.

| I love minksheen. The smell doesn't bother me I kind of like it. It leaves Pistols coat so soft and managable after a bath. |

| I've been using it last couple of shampoos and love it. Smell doesn't bother me. Kody's coat is super soft.
