OMG!!! you =might use this if you were trying to sluff off old skin. But ANY ADULT SHAMPOO will dry out your dogs skin badly -let alone this dandruff shampoo.
according to my accredited Vet, you can use baby shampoo(the PH balance is the same as dogs shampoo)
or you can use EARTH BATH FOR DOGS, IT IS NOT SOAP AT ALL, BUT CLEANS 100 % CLEAN AND SAFE TO USE DAILY.
and no you do NOT want to bath as little as possible with English Bulldogs, that is any other breed--
bulldogs need to be CLEAN to keep bacteria off the skin and out of the folds of skin. the vet doesn't know bulldogs--find a new one please--ALL THINGS ABOUT BULLDOGS(ENGLISH AND FRENCH) are differant than any other breed, from xrays to daily needs. I think that any more often than once a week may be a little to much, but , those who have been here a while know -that when they go out and get muddy,or full of sand, they are going to get more water than once a week. or if your dog has growing allergies, they will need those feet dipped in water each time they come in . IT IS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE WATER THAT CAUSES SKIN TO DRY OUT the hotter the worse it is for your skin.
my question is why is the vet having you use medicated shampoo? if it is for a fungal infection, once he is on antibiotics, you can rinse him off all over thoroughly with a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water,try white. this can be squirted in the ears .tail area,face folds(with a cloth or paper towel) twice a week and they will never have a yeast infection(fungal)again.
let me know! most of us at the beginning have bought shampoo by the gallons @ $100.00 a pop. now we know how to prevent this in the first place. however having a good shampoo for bacterial infections is a great idea. just for emergencies. that Gallon lasted myself and my daughter and our 8 to 10 bulldogs almost a year.so a little goes a long way.
keep in touch, you can always call me.
