*As a groomer I have bathed dog's weekly...A mild cleaning shampoo with a coat conditioner to follow always left coat's great no matter the breed...Now my personal dog's they don't see a tub often enough But there clean and coat's are good ...Regardless the breed I have a few chi's with oil coats and those with dry coats similar to a person's head..A good shampoo that I really liked was an Emu Oil based and that was awesome.. * On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 11:44 PM, Michele Sinnett <[email protected]>wrote:
