WARNING! Yorkie Splash and shine has rosemary oil which induces seizures in epileptics...DO NOT use it on your epileptic dog and consider not using it at all if your dog comes in contact with an epileptic (dog or person). Elvis had a trip to the ER new years day...he's fine now and I did talk to the owner or Yorkie Splash and Shine and they are considering a new formulation specific to epileptics but it won't be available for at least a year and will be a special order item most likely. Elvis is fine now and we are continuing his seizure treatments by our new vet but it was another scare and I feel awful I should have researched it bit better...hope no one else makes my mistake.

I notice many dog shampoos do not reveal the ingredients on the bottles. I think it is really nice that Yorkie Splash shows the ingredients on the bottles. I would have continued buying them if they work well on Blue. Unfortunately, Blue felt too waxy.

They were so considerate of my issue and when I sent them a list of seizure inducing ingredients they were more than willing to work out a formulation safe for dogs with epilepsy, as soon as they do have an epileptic safe formula I'll definitely be using them again...I've heard from other people the waxy issue especially in cottony coat Yorkshires. I actually contacted them via their facebook page-you should give them your feedback they are so receptive about what people think of their products and really put a genuine effort in resolving any issues or concerns customers may have.

Blue is cottony. I read in another thread that people have problem with waxy thing and I assumed that it'd be enough for the owner to take that into consideration. I'm glad Elvis is okay now. What a scare for you all!

My sheltie has epilepsy and I have used splash and shine on him with no problems what so ever so maybe it only triggers siezures in certain dogs. Im sorry that your poor elvis has to go through what he did. Glad to hear he is ok now. Thats great that they are willing to work on a new product without the rosemary in the shampoo.

Dzbabykel · 02-17-2011, 06:49 AM

Oh wow how scary!!

Teddy has epilepsy also and despite having at least 150 baths with yorkie splash and shine (maybe more in fact), it has never triggered a seizure. We also use the grooming spray made by the company very often and no seizures there either. I will note that Teddy was only recently placed on anticonvulsant meds but even while unmedicated no seizures occurred from the use of this product. I plan to continue the use of the product.

I hope your dog is being treated with medication for his seizures and is doing ok in that regard.

Sorry that should have been 50 baths (not 150). Hate typing from my phone LOL

Yeah he has been on phenobarbital for a few years now and is doing great.
