shampoo

Can I use Tea Tree special shampoo on Brutus? I think I have read that somewhere on here. I ran out of oatmeal shampoo.

I don't think it would hurt until you get your regular shampoo, it is made for itchy scalp.

Don't think it was me. I have used a hot spot/ anti-itch concoction that had tea tree oil in it I think but I was using a shampoo with oatmeal in it. Now I'm using the same shampoo my wife has always used on the maltese its Tropiclean hypoallergenic shampoo. I did try T-Gel dandruff shampoo when Ace was younger and itching at the suggestion of the breeder but it didn't seem to help alot back then. Actually back then when Ace was much younger I don't know of any shampoo that would have helped all that much now I think back then much of his itching and red underbelly and thighs was his immune system developing as a pup. It's much better as he has grown older but still during the times of the year when allergens are high he may have some problems.

I think Dawn dish soap is even good for them.... helps keep fleas away.

If I run out of soap I use Dawn if they cant wait for a bath until I get the oatmeal!!! I used to use Maloseb but its very pricey so I only use it every 2 months or so!

I've eared people say not to use baby shampoo because of the ph levels. But my vet told me to use what ever I would use on my human babies. It's worked for us Zeus doesn't have allergies that I know of..

Maybe that is what it was....

I use a tea tree oil shampoo every other bath and rotate with the Malacetic shampoo. I have read that the oatmeal shampoo can cause an issue with yeast, but that may be only if they are currently having yeast problems. I would think our dogs would like the tea tree shampoo because it gives you a cooling affect like menthol. I have used Paul Mitchell Tea tree shampoo in the past and it is so refreshing in the summer time!
