i really like the buddy wash and conditioner as it is natural and smells good and they are so soft and fluffy

is there anywhere you can buy minksheen in a store? Cause shipping cost almost as much as the bottle!

Not that I know of

I'm pretty certain that you can only order it online. I don't remember shipping being that much though - but then again I haven't ordered it in a while as we switched shampoo's due to one of my babies needing an Oatmeal shampoo. Maybe the shipping cost has gone up since I last ordered.

Is the MinkSheen on sale now? They put it on sale quite often.

yeah...for the 13$ bottle it cost 7.50 for shipping...just kinda seemed outrageous for shipping to cost that much...maybe if it weighed a TON but the bottle is only like 16 oz! haha oh well....ill probably give in and buy it anyway since everyone just seems to love it lol

I've have sent them an email as well for a sample, hopefully I'll get one! My little guy's fur is very dull and his skin gets dry and flakey when I bathe him. I hope to have the same results!!

I was also wondering, after I bathe Paco should I blow dry him or is it ok to towel dry him only? I currently only towel dry him and comb his fur after, should I be using a different type of comb or brush?

I gave Paco a bath last night with the Minksheen sample I got the other day. It smells great and I noticed his fur more full and fluffy looking. Also his skin looks a little better (still somewhat dry skin) but I don't find his fur to be very much shinier ... will that come with time of using the Minksheen? Also I've heard that when bathing your furbaby you should shampoo them twice to make the fur shinier? Is that true?

Hello everyone. This is my first post but I lurk pretty much everyday. After reading everyones reviews on the minksheen and receiving my free sample, I had to come in and tell everyone about my results. I absolutely love this shampoo. My Belle has never looked this good, her true colors started showing and the shine is unbelievable. I used the 4-1 and no conditioner afterwards.
I will post pics as soon as I learn how...

cuculinda · 02-11-2009, 10:22 AM

Lets see if this works

Thanks, I am so happy more black is showing since she is pretty much silver and blonde. I have better pictures but they are too big to upload. I dont know how to resize

Is needed to dilute Minksheen shampoo with water?
What concentration who prefer ?

chachi · 02-12-2009, 06:31 AM

I dont dilute mine. I know on the bottle they tell groomers to but I use the pet owners instructions and it doesnt say anything about diluting with water

Belle is just beautiful! She has such pretty, shiny, soft looking hair.

I use the shampoo full strength, also.

cuculinda · 02-12-2009, 12:14 PM

Thanks Bonbon. I've had her for a year (well she will be a year on the 26th) and she is my first dog so I had no idea how much you can love these animals. They truly do become part of ones family.

I use it full strength as well!!
