Hey guys, it's me again with the shampoo question, haha. I got Bentley some  
baby shampoo with moisturizer in it, and it seemed to work for a while but his 
 dandruff came back again. So I called the vet and they gave me some shampoo 
and  spray to use on him. Thing is, it says for dogs and cats on the bottle. 
And I  was a little bit worried about putting it on him. I know that sometimes 
these  shampoos can hurt them and I don't want to do that, but he seems really 
 uncomfortable with this problem. The vet says if I use this shampoo and the  
"dandruff" is still there it could be mang? The spray is from "Virbac Animal  
Health" it's called "Humilac" and it says Humectant With Alpha-Hydroxy Acid 
Oil  Free. It says you could use it to spray on their hair or to add 5 capfuls 
and  put it in their bath water.  The shampoo, from the same company is  
called Allergroom and it says Hypoallergenic Emollient Restoring  
Antiseborrheic...it says to put it on their coat, rinse and repeat, then leave  on their coat 
for 5 to 10 minutes. Does this sound OK to everybody? I don't want  to hurt 
him! I didn't try it yet, I thought I would get your opinion on it first  before 
I do anything...
 
Thanks, 
Katie
