I've heard that some people it for fleas; I wouldn't use it on a puppy skin. You might not see problems right away, but you will down the line. Even human shampoo's including baby shampoo are too harsh for a dog's skin , as they have a different pH, and need a product formulated for their skin. Some people use human shampoos as well, and report no problems, but others have reported problems after using them for a time. You need to remember that skin problems are much easier to prevent than treat. Once they have a dry skin problem it can be very difficult to treat, and it can lead to itching and secondary infections. I love the Biogroom products, and they are very concentrated, so aren't as costly as they first seem. You can also get a free sample of the products, if you e-mail the Biogroom Company, just click on "Contact us."
