What shampoo to use for bearded collie and advice on keeping coat matt free.

When I was keeping border collies, I used to use baby shampoo for washing, any generic cream rinse for rinsing, and as the coat dries, spritz with Show Sheen for horses (mix it 50/50 mix water/Show Sheen), rub in and comb (wide tooth comb) through the coat..





Brush when thoroughly dry, and you'll have a glossy coat which is very easy to keep free of tangles. Also, you can shorten grooming time by air blowing the hair. It will work out potential tangles, without having to brush the animal several times a day.





But - this is the reptile section. Guess a lot of us own dogs, too. lol





My present lil terror is a rescued lab mix.

This question should have been placed in the dog section, not the reptile section. But to answer your question: Any mild shampoo can be used. If you want, you can get shampoos specifically for dogs, but it's not really necessary. There are also various conditioners out there to help keep tangles from forming, but really daily grooming will do a better job to keep the coat mat free. A good fine wire or soft brush will do the trick. What shampoo to use for bearded collie and advice on keeping coat matt free.
Probably better to use something very mild, such as Johnsons Baby shampoo, and of course, the only real wway to keep the coat matt free is to use a good grooming brush / comb at least twice a day, and certainly, after each walk.





Why is this in the reptile section?
