Finding the best dog shampoo that is right for your dog is similar to finding one that is best for you.  You have to take into consideration your dogs coat, just like you take into consideration the kind of hair you have.  Also, bathing your dog too often will dry out his skin, which leads to scratching and other problems you can avoid.  Here are some great shampoos to try on your dog based on his type of coat.

Short coat/Hairless: A great product for the short coat and hairless bunch is MD10 Dog Shampoo Super Hydration.  It will help to keep the skin and coat hydrated leaving them shiny and clean.  This works best on Bull Terriers and Daschunds as well as Mexican Hairless breeds, as they do not need to be groomed too often.  You only want to bathe dogs with these coats a few times a year, unless they get super filthy, then of course, by all means, bathe your fur baby.  You can check out other products they have at their website www.md10.eu

Double coat and Wire coat:  Ever heard of Cowboy Magic products?  Their Detangler and Shine works amazing for breeds such as Collies, Chows and Huskies, helps to get the mats out.  You want to comb your dog’s coat first before shampooing.  Use their Rosewater Shampoo and follow it up with Rosewater Conditioner for the best results.  You can see the Cowboy Magic line of products at www.cowboymagic.com

Curly coat: Again, MD10 Dog Shampoo Texture Volume makes the list for those with a curly coat.  It restores that curl from the root and gives the coat some volume.  This works best on Poodles and Bichon Frise as well as Labradoodles.

Long coat: Pet Head’s Furtastic creme rinse for long haired (and curly) coats leave him smooth.  You can also use their Furball which is a detangling spray for the tougher parts that are hard to brush out.  This works well on Shih Tzus, Maltese and Yorkshire Terrier breeds.  All of the Pet Head products can be found on www.pethead.com.

 Finding the right shampoo for your dog is not like rocket science.  Just know what you need.  There are also products to help with itchy skin and other issues you may need to resolve when grooming your pet.
