| Puppy wipes vs Baby wipes I'm sure this was discussed before but the search engine doesn't seem to be working. My friend was telling me how she uses baby wipes (Kirkland's from Costco. I also saw Huggies brand) to wipe down her poodle. I've googled on it and it seems ok to use it on dogs. I just wanted to make sure it's ok with using them on yorkies seeing how they can be more on the sensitive side. Are there any areas I should avoid using them on? Like eyes, butt, etc.. Cost wise, it'll be SO much cheaper. |

| I use unscented baby wipes ($1 for 80!) every time we come in from outside. It'd be tough to pay for anything more expensive. My girls have no problems with them, & BTW they really enjoy our little ritual.

| I use baby wipes on Lola's butt. The only area I wouldn't use them is near her eyes. I buy store brand unscented sensitive skin ones. |

| We use the KanDoo baby wipes on Gina around her face and eyes, also her butt when needed, she hasn't had any problems with them. I'll bet if you put both, the baby and puppy wipes side by side, they are very close, if not the same thing. Cheers Quad

| I use the Kirkland brand wipes on Toby's rear. I don't use them on his face though.

| I use unscented baby wipes on private area and paws, never around the face. I have not had any problems at all.

| Yup, Costco baby wipes are the cheapest, & I don't think there is any difference. Besides is a baby's bare butt less sensitive than a yorkie? I doubt it!
