How do ya'll get your dogs to look so beautiful?  |

oh please stop using baby shampoo ASAP. Johnson's baby shampoo or any other baby shampoo is formulated to removed "cradle cap" from a baby's scalp. This is a dry and harsh shampoo to use on a Yorkie's skin. Get a good quality dog shampoo such as Pet Silk or Bio-Groom...and also their companion coat conditioner. You will see a world of difference in a few weeks.
Do not worry.....many people and also breeders advise to use this shampoo on their puppies.
