| I would like to know to. I've also tried all of the above on my baby but his ears are always dry and flakey.

| I use gobs of human hair conditioner. I leave it on after the soap up and do a mini massage for 1-2 minutes. Then rinse well. I towel dry them, then blow dry them (this also helps to straighten the hair, so the don't come out looking like poodles). While drying, if I snag any knots, I use a human leave-in conditioner spray. (I brush/comb them out completely before getting them wet) Last year I was feeling weird about using human products so I switched up to doggy stuff, but Icky (Peek a Boo)'s skin dried out so bad I changed back, after reading a breeder/show person's recommendation. He's all good again!
