    I use Hartz "Infusions" on the pups. It's an oatmeal shampoo with aloe micro beads in it. It leaves their fur really soft and silky, and it smells good too. I picked it up at Walmart.

    They only get a bath about once a month - in between trips to the groomer. Of course if they get into something stinky outside, then I am forced to give an unscheduled bath - like the time Sparky found a dead frog to roll around on just a couple of days after a trip to the groomer. Brat!!!!!

    They're good at that aren't they? Luckily my dogs don't do that. My mom's dog (that I think is a Bichon Poodle mix) does the same thing. And she wears her coat so it has to be washed all the time too.

    Thanks for the feedback Ellie!! Unfortunately I refuse to go to Walmart, but maybe I can find it somewhere else.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    You should be able to pick it up anywhere that carries pet products.

    I have been recommended Tropiclean. I've seen it at PSP... dunno about the other spots. A good shampoo actually does make a great difference in your dog's skin and fur.

    Anyways, everyone loves it, but I haven't used it yet. I had a cheap shampoo and it made Delta itch. I have to go buy this new one...

    Koko has had skin issues in the late summer into fall that is caused by inhalant allergies. I cleared up her skin problems last year with Virbac etiderm and now keep it under control with Virbac Allergroom on her body and johnsons Baby shampoo on her head. Virbac has a whole
    line of products from shampoos, flea control, to nutritional suppliments. There web site also gives advice in bathing frequency and a whole list of advice. Most of there product can be bought online or a Petco.
