| The first shampoos I used on Max were basic dog shampoos, one from Walmart and the other from Petsmart. Both left Max smelling like yucky wet dog. Petco carries Espree, Spa Fresh (I think that is what the line is called), and Tropiclean. Ordering online, I like Biogroom, PetSilk, and Vellus. Chris Christensen is great and most people like the scent, but it was too much for my sensitive nose.

| He shouldn't stink right after a bath. Is it maybe his breath causing it? I would ask a vet, because a dog shouldn't smell bad right after a bath, especially a Yorkie. |

| The shampoo you are using could be the culprit. What is the brand? Many good shampoos out there, Espree is our favorite here. Has he smelled after a bath every time you bathed him for his whole life, or has something changed? What kind of "stink" is it, and has he been checked out at his vet for anything underlying issues medically?

| I use Tropiclean for puppies and it works great. It's an all green, no soap, oatmeal formula.

Yorkie Yakker | I like to use Nature's Miracle Lavender Shampoo for sensitive skin (I got this at Petsmart). Just a thought, but when Rocks has an ear infection, whew! He stinks even after a bath. As soon as it clears up, he smells like his lavender shampoo again

Ears are another likely culprit and the ear should have no smell to it at all.
