I don't buy any wipes -- except Viva paper towels!  A drop of Jergens bath wash, warm water on one or two of those and wipe, wipe, wipe. |
I've heard that talcum powder can cause health problems in humans, I would assume that would also apply to our doggies. Most people now use non-talcum baby powder. I always make sure I buy the Pure Cornstarch baby powder instead of talcum powder. I know a lot of us grew up w/ talcum powder and we're just fine (as far as we know) but I figure better safe than sorry.
