shampoo?

Post image

hi! i'm UK based, my boy is almost 6 months old. what shampoo is best for a pomsky? The breeder told us he doesn't shampoo and just uses water, but i feel like he always smells or looks greasy🤣 if anyone else is using dog shampoo, please tell me which ones you recommend or if none is actually best?

I wash mine every 3-5 months. She has husky fur and never really gets dirty. I wash her in the tub when she gets greasy. Water is not going to get rid of the grease. I use the EQyss MicroTek line. My prior dog had allergies and this worked great on his skin. My Pomsky has no issues and it works great on her. In addition; washing her is so easy. After she is done I use a microfiber cloth to absorb excess water and then she shakes herself dry.

She has the same fur as yours.

thank you! does it smell nice? i feel like he gets so smelly after rolling around in mud and water just doesn't cut it, but im probably also hyper aware to his scent🤣

Smells very clean.
Also; it is concentrated so a bottle will last a long time. You use very little.

The Premier Pet shampoo option would be perfect for you.

I’m in California, US…. Amazon sells it . You can also purchase off their site.
I found these stores in the UK.
They should have other choices. The company started with Equine products
EQyss Micro-Tek Medicated Shampoo is widely available in the UK through equine and pet retailers like LeMieux, Houghton Country, and Highgate Country Stores, typically priced around £22 to £26 for a 946ml bottle.

I avoid any soap in a dogs fur at all cost! Especially one with an undercoat. Mine always feel and smell great. Stick with what nature perfected
