I work at a thrift store(Unique thrift store) and we have TONS of used dog/cat stuff. I honestly think its just a bit gross to use some used pet items, but that’s just me and my mom is a germ freak and she says its unsafe so we never do(though I have nothing against it, its just weird to me). Most of the stuff is usually bowls, crates/carriers and sometimes shampoo and clothes. What is your opinion on buying used stuff for your dogs? What is ok and not ok to buy that is used? Is it unsafe?

What can I wash my dog with besides shampoo?




We don’t have dog shampoo right now, and can’t get dog shampoo now. My 9 month old female boxer has very sensitive skin, and I don’t want to irritate her skin. She really needs a bath, and I’m not sure what to use.

What is the best shampoo for a dog?




A shampoo that does it all moisturize,helps with dry skin,gives a shiny coat and helps with odor. I have an dog that loves being outdoors and that is where I spend my time with him playing and going for walks so he gets pretty dirty.

Best shampoo for an old itchy dog?




So I have a 14 year old bichon frise who is constantly itching and biting herself, resulting in pink patches all over her. She also has really sensitive skin, and a really bad odor…but that’s probably due to her old age. What is the best dog shampoo to help relieve her discomfort and fight her terrible odor?
She doesn’t have yeast haha. The pink on her skin isn’t severe, it’s really just on her paws which is because that is where she bites herself the most.

A question about dog shampoo?




My two dogs, both are 11 months old, have just played their hearts out and rolled into their dog doo. I have no more dog shampoo left and I need to wash them pronto! Is there something besides dog shampoo I can use to wash them as of course I don’t want to irritate their skin or hurt them in any way? Thank you for your answers.
