    when you spray this on do you do it until the dog is soaking wet or just a light spray?
    do you wash it out?
    how often should it be used?

    excuse the questions ;D

    It depends on how recently Fritz was groomed.. if not too long ago then it doesn’t take as much… but I give him a good spray all over and then run it down to the skin.. I use a plant sprayer from homebase… it feels like I spray him a lot but one mix following Val’s recipe and volume of water lasts me quite a while  :ok: (i guess that might also be cause I forget to use it  :-[ )

    so when i use this then i should make sure he is very well covered? but not dripping with it

    I would say.. and be sure to rub it otherwise it won’t penetrate down the hair  😉

    I really should take a photo of Fritz’s face when i spray him.. it’s classic  😀

    😀 😀

    stan will give me the ‘i cant believe you are doing this to me’ face 😀 the one i ussualy get when he has a bath ;D

    ok last question
    stan likes to lick himself after a bath, should i stop him from doing that until the spray is dry on him?
