Great point about the eyes. I only use No-Tear baby shampoo on the head rest of the body gets Earthbath Oatmeal shampoo (it's all natural and the oatmeal is supposed to be good for itchy skin) then I finish with the Pantene. As I blow dry I very lightly spritz them with the leave in conditioner. The leave-in works great on static hair too! I just keep a small spray bottle in me purse for both me and the girls.

Speaking of purse... I should start a new thread about what Yorkie stuff is always in your purse!
