It sounds wonderful. I'm going to look for it for my cats and DGDs dog.

Do you think this stuff would work good for her?

You betcha. I think because she is so tiny, you may want to purchase the cat Furminator comb. The quart bottle of MG will last you more than a year (I bet even two) even if you use it once a week which you can. Her size and coat should make her pretty easy to care for. You will be surprised what that Furminator will pull out of her.

Hey all! Remember to trim their nails every couple of weeks. Did ya know a dogs nails should not touch or click the floor when they walk? Remember to have some Blood Stop or similar on hand just in case you get the cuticle. Make sure those dew claws are not curling back into the skin. They need trimmed back if they are. Better to have a professional do this just in case. It also is not for the squeemish at heart.

Make sure you go to their website to find out where they sell it in your area. Shipping on the gallon size is over teeh hill, but I may have to go that route this time.
I picked up my original bottle at a pet show in PA several years ago. It came with a nice quart spray bottle.
Wish you could have seen her working on the long haired, matted, dog. I was amazed at how easy the snarls were coming out.

Thanks for sharing this! There's a feed store nearby that should have this, according to the site, so I'm going to pick some up. Our wheaton terrier, she is smelly, bu I can't afford to take her to the groomer right now!

Yeah! Make sure you read the directions. I think you will really like the product. I know my critters love the massage they get.

My DD has alot of chemical allergies and this does not bother her in any way.
My DH has allergies (yes, even the dogs and cats) and he says it is a very pleasant smell that does not bother him either.
