[Gpdd] Re: health: a good guinea pig shampoo?

[Duren, Samantha L AZAN COMHSWINGLANT]

Well my piggies don't have mites or anything, but they are pure white, so we use a shampoo called, Pearlyte or something liket that the vet sold us. it smells like baby powder.

That "dandruff" may well be mites, and your piggie may need ivermectin.  The 
fact that he doesn't smell good is also indicative that something may be 
wrong.   You should have your vet have a look at him.  

I would be suspicious of a ferret shampoo.  You're better off with one made 
specifically for small animals or bunnies.
