Bathing, Shampoo and Conditioner

How often do you bath your dogs?
And what type of shampoo and Conditioner do you use?

I wash my dogs always a week before a show.
And than I was the day before,allways the whole dog.
I wash with a detergent washing-up liquid,hhhm I don't know how you call it.
It is for dishwash
We call it Dreft
The black color get shinning and really black.

The dogs they not for show I wash with
It smell very good

Do you use any Conditioner in the leghair?

Do you bath our dog between shows? We only have 3 show here in Iceland in a year, if I were to bath only between shows I would be ones every 3 months.

I wash my dogs when they are dirty, and before grooming and shows, of course. So, depend on weather and activity it can be every day, or once at 2 months (in winter, for example).

Usually I don't use any conditiiner, but if I have dog with harsh coat, and I need to get longer furnishing for show, I wash dog twise a week, use conditioner and after this put dog in oil

I don't use any conditioner...And the dog go in bath before I groom the legs.
First I strip and clip and than in bath,When they are dry I cut the hair on the legs...

What type of shampoo do you use?

1# All System
1. Professional whitening shampoo
2. Crisp coat shampoo
3. product stabilizer
4. super-rich protein lotion conditioner

All System - the best

shampoo : Iv Saint Bernard
canditioner: PEK (Iv S...)

Why you used conditioner??

I use conditioner on the leg hair and beard of my dogs to keep the hair in good condition. I will also spray in some conditioner into the leg hair before brushing, so the hair isn't damaged. The white/silver hair on the legs is a different texture then you may be used to on a black. My giants with hard leg hair don't have conditioner on them.

Shampoo - DeZynadog Light and Bright (also good on black coats)
Conditioner - Diamond Edge conditioner
Spray conditioner is one from Dezynadog

both are UK companies.

Biogroom is good, also I like Iv Sen Bernard, All systems, and Pet Silk.
I try to use same line, so, that shampoo, conditioner and oil will be of same company.

D'el casa di Vita - hello to Artero fan!
I use vitalizing shampoo often, its perfect for protecting and giving volume to harsh coated dogs.

But for shows I use other stuff, depends on hair color, lenght and quality: shining for blacks and whitening for whites, or volumizing.
Used to have Petsilk,Rin5, Biogroom, Chris Chritensen, Show Tech...

On my old Giant I also used dish-washing liquid often

Can you help what can I use to make long beard for schnauzer?
Which is the best conditioner or oil?
thanks

I´m using Iv San Bernard conditioner and sometimes the mask on the dog with extremely harsh beard. And I like the result.
