| Shampoo & Condioner for Herschel Hi everyone. I want to start grooming Herschel at home with the exception of a trimming on his ears, anus, and feet. I'll leave that to the groomers. Herschel allows me to brush him every morning without a struggle. My question is what shampoo and conditoner are recommended for him. I was looking at Johnson and Johnson No Tears Baby Shampoo and Conditoner but read a blog about grooming and it said human shampoos and conditoner was a no no due to the fact that the PH is not the same for humans and dogs and that the shampoo and conitioner for humans would be too harsh for dogs. Any response would be appreciated. I do love how his coat is soft, shiny, and luxiuriant when the groomer bathes him. Thanks Mark. |

| I use the Pet Silk brand and also use the leave in Conditioner when I brush every day. I also use Chris Christensen Day to Day. You get sample sizes of these to try. I switch out every few months. Shampoo Systems Kits Sample Sizes for Pet Grooming, Show Dogs & Cats

YT 2000 Club Donating Member | If you go to the grooming forum, there are lots of threads on different kinds of shampoo n conditioner. We all have our favourites. One idea as you like how his coat looks after the groomer washes etc, ask what they use. For Pet owners I do almost always advise Biogroom Shampoo and Silk Conditioner. It is not too pricey and usually works well for most coat types.

| Just an FYI - I don't have any answers,but the Vellus Product website has a blurb that does not encourage lanolin and oil use - may be interesting if you want a comparison.

| I've been using Bio-Groom products for years and I like them a lot. I'm comfortable with the products I select, and don't really care what a competitor site has to say about it.

| Yorkie Splash and Shine and IV San Bernard are my choices right now. I have used many others that worked well too.
