			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Clementine and Winston, my sweet dogs, have a big bad flea problem every  year around this time.  We&#8217;ve been using Hydrosurge Oatmeal Soothing  Shampoo from Walmart (I&#8217;m not proud of that; it doesn&#8217;t have the best  ingredients).  It&#8217;s not relieving their itching at all, and it&#8217;s <em>certainly</em> not killing the fleas.  We have resorted to using dish detergent, which  kills the fleas.  Still, I&#8217;m very uneasy about using something that&#8217;s  made for washing dishes on my dogs. I also think that it&#8217;s making their  skin dry (duh.) and, as a result, more itchy. I&#8217;ve been searching the  internet for a few days, and here are two good-looking shampoos with  decent ingredients that I&#8217;ve come across:</p>
<p><a href="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2010/06/media2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-445" title="Comfy Dog Oatmeal Shampoo" src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2010/06/media2.jpg" alt="Comfy Dog Oatmeal Shampoo" width="227" height="408" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.happytailsspa.com/Comfy-Dog#" target="_blank">Comfy Dog Oatmeal Shampoo</a>- This stuff has Cocamidopropyl Betaine in it, which is a synthetic  surfactant.  There are a few other questionable ingredients, but they  appear to be pretty safe as a whole.  I&#8217;d rather the shampoo  work and  have a few bad ingredients than not work and have all natural  ingredients.</p>
<div id="attachment_446" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 231px"><a href="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2010/06/3EC00C9B-D6E5-4F06-A8B2-0F1576C01236_DOG1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-446" title="Woof Wild Natural Dog Shampoo Bar" src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2010/06/3EC00C9B-D6E5-4F06-A8B2-0F1576C01236_DOG1.jpg" alt="Woof Wild Natural Dog Shampoo Bar" width="221" height="196" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The precious little paw print was kind of a dealmaker.</p></div>
<p><a href="http://www.awildsoapbar.com/product.asp?productid=395421" target="_blank">Woof Wild Natural Dog Shampoo Bar</a>- This shampoo bar has better ingredients than the Comfy Dog stuff, but  I&#8217;m concerned that it will take an entire bar to bathe Clementine once  (she&#8217;s furry).</p>
<p>Has anyone ever used these products on their pet? If so,  did they work? I&#8217;d really appreciate some advice/suggestions regarding <em>any</em> natural pet shampoos. I&#8217;m lost, and my dogs are itchy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone thinks that they have the cutest dogs around, but I actually do.</p>
<p>Proof:</p>
<div id="attachment_144" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-144 " src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2009/11/IMG_0373-300x225.jpg" alt="The are fond of each other." width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">They are fond of each other.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_145" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-145" src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2009/11/IMG_0375-300x225.jpg" alt="I wonder what their puppies' ears would look like." width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">I wonder what their puppies&#39; ears would look like.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_146" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-146" src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2009/11/IMG_0376-300x225.jpg" alt="My dogs are precious angels." width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">My dogs are precious angels.</p></div>
<div id="attachment_148" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-148" src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2009/11/IMG_0352-300x225.jpg" alt="Her little paws are filthy." width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Her little paws are filthy.</p></div>
<p>Clementine has plenty love to give. She will lick your face for hours if you let her, and she is a big time cuddler.  She doesn&#8217;t mind having her teeth brushed or her hair combed.  She doesn&#8217;t object to the occasional application of lip gloss or the donning of a party dress.  She believes that all dogs are her best friends. She likes to run and is always excited to see me when I come home. Clementine likes to chew on important things.</p>
<div id="attachment_147" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-147 " src="http://turbyandjohn.com/files/2009/11/IMG_0344-300x225.jpg" alt="doing what he does best" width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Winston is the king of naps.</p></div>
<p>Winston has an old soul. He yawns regularly and consistently chooses walking over running.  Naps are his favorite. He is scared of bath tubs, thunder, fireworks, combs, detangling spray, and his dog toothbrush. He will dance for treats. He needs all the attention (by way of petting) that a person can give him at one time. He pretends to be bothered by Clementine, but he will always take up for her if the situation calls for it. Winston smells like fritos.</p>
