| Shampoo suggestion I read in a home remedies column somewhere that most soaps can be diluted and put in a foamer bottle so today I tried it with the dog shampoo in a recycled bath and body works foamer bottle and it worked great. Just an idea for anyone else that may be interested. I think I had a lot less waste doing it this way.

| Wow that is great. I used the Yorkie Splash again today and it seems like I have to use more to get a nice rich lather but I admit with the shampoo and conditioner her hair is so soft. I also use Yorkie Sheen detangle as a grooming spray. I just spray her comb and brush and it works beautifully and smells wonderful.. Someone on here uses Furfection Naturals Face Cleaner and loves it, now I am wanting to get that for her face. Yes I am a product junkie...

| That is a good idea!! I tend to use to much I think. I want to see that nice lather! I use Bath and Body Works foaming soaps so I have plenty bottles I could use! Thanks for the suggestion!!!

| It is the bottle that foaming soap comes in. At the top is a contraption that makes the soap foam.

| I have been doing that for a while..it really works great. Mink Sheen's dilution ratio is 8:1 I measure it in a shot glass and use an old dawn foamer bottle. It makes a full bottle and it lasts about 6 weeks X 2 dogs. It is amazing how much product you save by doing it this way.

| I want to try this and out of the millions of toiletries in this house not one foaming bottle! They have them on ebay for about five bucks but I think I'll just wait & buy something filled at the store.

I just did this today because I needed another one for the bath. Take the tube out of the dispenser, and poke 5 or 6 pin holes (i use a safetly pin) in the tube just below where it connectes to the top. Make sure you keep your soap level in the container below the spots where you put the pin holes, this infuses air into the pumping action, and , whoa-La! you have foam
