What is the best soap to use for dogs?

If the dogs have decided to roll in some fox poo, any “No Tears” baby shampoo from The Dollar Store works well… It does not contain the powerful surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate, which his highly irritating to the eyes, and is a mild detergent that will not strip all of the oils from the dogs fur and skin.
Avoid any other “human” hair care products, as almost all of them will contain sodium lauryl sulfate as well as a number of other highly irritating surfactants.
If the dogs get into something particularly sticky, oily or tarry, I’ll use baby shampoo around their face, “Dawn Ultra” everywhere else and followup with “Mane and Tail Conditioner” to restore some oils to the fur and skin so the process does not cause dry skin.
How can I handle my distrust and jealousy for my partner?
For regular cleaning of dirty fur, I’l just wash them down with a hose and give them a good brushing….
Unless the Vet has recommended otherwise….???
