You received some really good advice.
Personally, I think you have to try different products to know what's right for your morkie. Every dog is different.
With Tatiana, I approach her skin and coat in two ways -- her diet and what I physically do with her skin and coat. I think healthy skin and coat starts from the inside out (just like humans). With coconut oil, I have Tatiana EAT it (I add it to her food). I also add fish oil, too.
With physically maintaining Tatiana, I do not put a lot of products on her. I find that it irritates her, and creates a build-up on her coat. This includes detangling products.
What works with Tatiana is using a mild, fragrance-free conditioner, and plenty of rinsing. I have yet to find a shampoo that won't irritate her (and I've tried mild ones). I bath her once of week. I brush her out every day.
Her skin and coat are in good shape.
Again, this may not work for your morkie. I'm just sharing what works for Tatiana. |
