couldn't you just use people shampoo? something simple, like baby shampoo maybe... I've done this with my dog, and my horse for that matter!

My vet recommended diluting baby shampoo and using that. My dog's coat is so much nicer now that I'm doing it that way. Her dander is much less and her coat is softer and shinier. Plus, she smells like a baby! :)

In general, I wouldn't. Most people shampoos are much to harsh for the skin of a dog (or cat). They remove too much oil, leaving the coat and skin overly dry. Baby shampoos are milder, and may be suitable, if diluted as Angie suggests.

I use whatever shampoo I use but I dilute it by at least 3/4 first. I just use an old bottle put in 1/4 shampoo and 3/4 water. I don't use any people shampoo straight, I find even baby shampoo straight drys out my little dogs skin.

Thanks Ladies!

We use CA Baby shampoo for all of us, so I guess I will dilute it and give it a try.

I also use baby shampoo for my puppy, but didn't know about diluting it. I'm going to go do that now. Thanks for the tip.

Baby shampoo is not good for dogs. The pH of human skin is not the same as a dogs and it will result in irritated, dry skin on your pup in the long run.

Finally! Here is one I finally got an answer from :

Still waiting on an answer from Earthbath about their "natural cleansers" and the source of their vitamin E ! They do have wheat germ and vitamin E (no source listed) in their products, so I would be very tentative about using their products. I will post their answer if I ever get one, lol!

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works
    • trents
      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
