First for the most part I do think the conditioner is key; but having said that.
I like a moisture rich shampoo for most of the year' only in early fall do I use a more regular type of shampoo.
I like IOD no 10. In the Fall I use ISB green apple shampoo. I use the deep conditioning #51 from IOD for almost all the year; as we swim a lot. I also use the nutrient mask for a deep conditioner it stays on for at least 15minutes.
Vellus I have used but don't like for my Yorkie; however I love the shampoo for my blackies.
Use a really good conditioning spray in between baths. Trim - just snip a bit off the ends of the coat at least once monthly.
Good nutriton and hydration and exercise is key to a good coat |
I have to say that I have been using the Isle of Dogs shampoo and conditioner. The #10 shampoo and #51 conditioner. Betty Boop has long silky hair and this makes her hair so soft and manageable. I also use Isle of Dogs Silky Coating Brush Spray (Jasmine & Vanilla), and sometimes the Lush Coating Brush Spray (Violet & Sea Mist).
I have recently used a sample of the Minksheen and didn't use a conditioner. With other shampoos, I've had to use a conditioner, but I didn't have to with the Minksheen. Of course, using a conditioner would have made it a little easier to brush, but I still didn't have too much of a problem brushing & drying it. I'm trying it out mainly to see if it repels fleas. I do have to say, though, that Minksheen gave her a luscious, shiny coat. I like the smell. It's not offensive at all to me.
Right now, I say
to the IOD.
