    Bathing puppy
    I have an 8 month old morkie puppy... when I give him a bath I only use shampoo is that OK?

    No it isn't, there are chemicals in human shampoo that can destroy natural
    Oils on a dogs coat and skin and cause irritation. The safest thing is shampoo
    Specifically made for dogs, most pet stores sell them, even Walmart does. If you
    Are in a pinch, a small amount of mild dish soap is okay. Just fyi, I'm not an expert
    Of this, but this is what I was told by my vet.

    Good luck.

    I have heard the same thing that human shampoo is not good for dogs due to the chemicals. Petsmart has a great selection of dog shampoo that smell good!
