We have tried many different things on my monsters over the years. With the crew I have now, they get muddy so often, we need something we can use frequently without harming them, so we are currently using Johnson's baby shampoo. They smell awesome, but only for a few days, or until their next mudwrestling "event". All three were bathed yesterday, as two had vet appointments, and the third had been playing in the mud for hours. Their coats are so soft, shiny, and just beautiful today! The vet even commented on how great our rescue, Jesse's coat looked after such a short time since coming to live with us.
