Need shampoo advice Ruger came down with a strange case of dandruff Large flakes stuck in his hair that are difficult to wash out. Its all at the base of his head. Both his groomer and vet don't think its serious, but suggested I change shampoo to see what happens. I was using Fluffy Puppy and he takes fish oil to fight dry skin. Any suggestions for quality shampoos, that are readily available, will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

hi, this is what i use for Oscar. it is awesome.. it leaves his coat soft and silky and also conditions his skin.. Zymox Enzymatic Shampoo and Conditioning Rinse|Dog Skin Care |
Looks good. Does it lather easily? A friend gave me some imported shampoo, very good and very expensive, but came out of the bottle like glue. Thanks. |

I would use a degreasing shampoo. Ask your vet if you can use chlor hex shampoo or maleseb. I find it removes the scale and dandruff after a few uses. I then go back to using regular shampoos. I like Les Pooch and Chris Christensen products. |
I use Baby Magic baby wash. its gentle and doesnt burn tanks eyes. |
Finally got the Zymox shampoo and conditioner. The shampoo goes on easy and rinses clean but I've never used a conditioner before. I just spread it all over him, gave him a slight rinse to help me spread it around easier, then gave him a really quick rinse -- not completely rinsing out the conditioner. All seems well and Ruger is happy, but did I use the conditioner correctly? Should I just work the stuff in and not rinse him at all? I will say it was easy to brush him. I'll let you all know how it works on that flaking. As I said before, the vet didn't seem all that concerned about the flaking, but if it continues he may have to have his thyroid checked -- Ruger, not the vet. :D |

yes, that shampoo is awesome.. the conditioner can be used as a leave in as well but i would still rinse him fairly well.. tip: for a grooming spray i put a couple tsp of conditioner in a small spray bottle full of distilled water and use that for oscar's daily grooming.. it works very well..( you have to shake it very well ) |
