Stinky dog - be gone!
Our dog started having skin problems last year and it got pretty bad, pretty quickly. She smelled horrible & I banished her from her corner spot in the bedroom (not a great marital harmonizer). None of the "dry skin" treatments we tried worked. After much research, I realized that oatmeal, etc., were making it much worse. She didn't have dry skin, she had a very bad yeast problem.- I will pause for a moment while you go "EWWWWWWW!!!" as I did.It seemed that she was reacting very badly to foods with grains (even high quality, non-commercial dog food). We changed her diet and started using Malapet on her. It took awhile, but the Malapet really got her skin under control.It's very important that you use as directed: wet your dog down, massage the shampoo into her skin and leave it set for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly. For bad skin yeast, you will have to do a couple times a week at first. It's also important to stay away from other dry skin products that contain oatmeal, since that feeds the yeast. We also stopped using tea tree oil products.The dog and marital harmony are both back in the bedroom.

Works like a charm!
My dog was getting a red rash/yeast outbreak on his tummy and armpits (leg pits?). My vet would prescribe meds to clear it up - it was a hassle (dog has to pee a lot on the meds, has to eat with food, 3 times a day, etc) and expensive.I got this shampoo and after two washes his skin cleared up. I made a couple changes to his diet to figure out what was causing the outbreaks and eventually I switched his food to grain-free and poultry-free and the rashes haven't come back. This shampoo was cheaper and easier than vet bills/meds and worked while I figured out how to "cure" my dog's problem.

Decent alternative to costly brand
Not crazy about the lack of fragrance and this product does not seem to work as well as malaseb or pharmaseb, but it is better than regular shampoo. Though it is slightly inferior I would recommend for someone with a slim wallet and would purchase again as money is tight.

It’s working even though I am not
Have shampood the dog twice with this. It says to use it twice a week until symptoms disappear. Used it more like once a week but the dog is much better. Little sores are almost gone and dog is much more comfortable

All Cleared Up in 2 Baths
My wonderful dog had developed a yucky skin rash (?). So, I purchased this shampoo. Immediately after the first bath she was drastically relieved from the itching and most of the rash was GONE! A few days later I gave her a second bath. Two weeks later - and still no rash or itching. This product is amazing and my girl is very happy.

It Works!
Amazing, our Springer Spaniel has been having a problem with yeast since the summer. After just one use there's a huge improvement, anticipate the problem will be completely cleared up.

It Works!!!
My Bichion had some scaly scabby sores and I had tried everything, changing her diet, probiotics and 4 different shampoos/conditioners.I tried Malapet and the first bath improved her skin and by the second bath she had no sores. As long as I give her a bath every 7-10 days she remains sore free.

No more itching
Finally my poor dog has stopped scratching thanks to this shampoo. Follow directions on the bottle. My poor dog used to scratch so much it wore her out - you could see it in her eyes. I had her tested for allergies. Should have tried this shampoo before that expensive testing.
