| Are baby wipes ok to use? Or do I need to stick with the puppy wipes. I just find the baby wipes are in larger qty at the same price. Since dogs can lick themselves, will licking the baby wipe solution make them sick in any way?

| I never thought of them licking it, but that's a good question. I know their skin Ph is different from ours. I use to use baby wipes on Kaji, but his peeper got irritated. Now I stick to puppy wipes.

| I use the all natural no scent no additive ones and have never had any problem. Been using them for everything since they were babies and they are a year old. They are Huggies with the pale green border. I buy 'em in the huge green cardboard for refills. I keep several dispensers all over, including the cars. Once in awhile somebody comes in with a Klingon on their butt, so there is a dispenser at the back door. One by the xpen, one in the bathrooms, great for removing make-up. On and on and on....LOL

| I probably use more baby wipes for Toto than I did with my skinkids. I have never had a problem with any sort of reaction/allergy with her. Her first order of the day after her breakfast is a good face scrubbing and sometimes I just wipe her down all over to freshen her up. Did I mention ... she is a very patient little girl??

| What they said. Clarence is on a diuretic so we had to pull a belly band on him. I wipe his peeper 4-5 times a day and don't have any trouble with the people wipes. I get the flushable ones.

| I use the unscented ones for eye boogers and butts. They are so good when we get back I tell them, "okay, wipe your butts' and they will actually stand there and let me clean them. -- I never thought I would be wiping a dogs butt--ha, ha!

| Yeah, they are fine to use... I use the unscented ones for everything. To clean paws when they come in from outside, to clean faces after meals, to clean butts or other areas after they go potty. We got through lots of wipes and all is well!

YT 1000 Club Member | I use babywipes all the time. They are really handy when you go to dog shows. I wipe feet anytime after they have been on the ground and when we get done in the ring.

| I guess Kaji is trying to make things expensive for me! I used the unscented, sensitive skin formula from I don' remember what brand. Does each brand have a diff formula? I would love to save some money on wipes.

| Thank you for all the information about the baby wipes. never thought of using them as they always tell you that dogs are different than humans. I will try them. I must say those dog wipes are getting pretty pricey. Mommy to Coco and Cody (Furry kids) |
