The supplement has chicken darnit. I will try to find something similar without the chicken though. The reviews of that product sound great!

Oh that dog is so adorable shame about the tear stains!! Are you guys allowed to camouflage over there??

Kristi this sounds so bizarre but I use a shine spray (like what I put in my hair) on daisy sometimes sees really shiney anyway but sometimes I just fancy spraying her lol I always use a light one tho not one that feels greasy

I'd use a whitening shampoo if I was you it should just help lift his colour

I know you give salmon oil but coconut oil is amazing for hair I let daisy eat hers too but u can just slick it on fir a few hours prior to his bath that will help

A friend of mine shows Maltese in the US and she swears by the "Cowboy" shampoo and conditioner range. Apparently its designed for horses, so she dilutes it down with an extra 1/3 of water - and her dogs look amazing!

Personally I like the Wahl range. I didnt think Maisie could be any whiter, then I used the Wahl Diamond White and I was shocked how much whiter she looked!

I just got a whole bunch of grooming products, including some biogroom shampoo and some iodog stuff...I'll hafta take a picture of him pre bath and post bath after using each type of thing so I can figure out what works the best.

Coconut oil! That is something I've been meaning to remember to try w/ them. The thing is when I read and look into supplements, its all things they are already getting one way or another, like it gets some fancy name but really is just omega 3's and horsetail...they already get both lol.

His coat has already really started to grow, I'm just impatient! After baths, he looks gorgeous. Otherwise right now b'c of all the differing lengths of fur, he can look mangy LOL!

wait til he blows his coat next year its horrible.. Daisy looks anorexic again i can't wait for it to grow back

I give Omega 3 and 6 in Salmon oil.. no idea whats in coconut oil but it gives mega shine if you shlick them before a bath in it!! Its cheap and organic and works.. whack it on your head and the same time and you'll be glowing in the ring too lol

How are his paws?? I really recommend those trimmers they have worked wonders on her feet.. i did Jaspers the other day.. after fighting him i felt like Cesar Milan i had to scruff him (hate this) and literally fight him to get him on the floor coz he wouldn't sit there and have it done so he's panting his little face off and im shaving ha ha he looked gorgeous once i was done with him!

I saw in that video they used volumising mousse.. not sure how i feel about that but i suppose if it boofs them up then there we go but yes do before and afters!!!

I got a wahl trimmer! I wasn't thrilled w the one I got though (its battery operated!), it trimmed so darn slowwwww. I tried to find the one you got but couldn't, so I ordered a wahl specifically for trimming paws etc and man, it did a great job but it took AGES. So I'll use it for a bit, but I gotta still see if I can find one more like what you got.

Once our new shampoos come and whatnot, I'm gonna give him a full on groom to see how he looks

Mines battery operated and is well fast... how bizarre is that i wonder if my batteries are more powerful i dunno i know we have different voltage in electricity here!! im so happy with mine!! Its even easier once you've done it once coz you just do it for maintenance!!

I was thinking the other day id love to see what that red boy you originally looked at has come out like!
