We use Buddy Wash & Rinse (i have that on my site) and others on here use brands like Mink Sheen, Petsilk... there are so many just do a search for "shampoo". I like Buddy Wash because it doesn't actually have soap in it so it doesn't dry their skin out as much. Don't worry it gets them clean - it cleans up puke and diarrhea for sure and it smells great for days! |
Great info Erin - yep food is a concern, and our regular shampoo & conditioner is Buddy Wash. Also love Buddy Splash - the shampoo & conditioner I put above is what I used for some serious skin issues for my Bubba. And I would definitely recommend it to get the skin under control first
