| Best shampoo for Yorkie ? Does anyone know what to use on our Yorkie.. I bathe her 2x a week, she gets so greasy and smelly. She is in our laps and on the furniture all the time.. I hate for her to sleep in my son's bed ( where she wants to sleep) unless she has JUST had a bath. Any suggestions? |

| My baby has a pretty dry coat. I've tried everything out there. But it sounds like to me you have a silky oily coat. For what ever it's worth, I'm using Pantene shampoo and conditioner, and it works great. I comb him out while the conditioner is on him.

| We love Buddy Wash. They smell so good and the (good) smell lasts for days!

| I use Minksheen after reading all the raves here on YT. It's great. I just wish I could find a good tearless one to use on their faces. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Just in case you don't know, you can go to search and check past topics on shampoo. I tried milksheen, but it didn't help with the dry coat. I changed to dog shampoo with pantene conditioner. This works great and it is alot cheaper!

| If your having that much of a problem with oily skin and having to bathe twice a week, then I'd be looking into changing the food you feed. Shampoo alone is not going to help at all. |

| Since every coat is different it is hard to say one will work well for every yorkie. Never thought I would say this but I ran out of shampoo this week and used Johnson's Baby Shampoo with my regular 'coat handler' conditioner and it was beautiful.
