Good oatmeal shampoo for sensitive skin?

Is Groomers blend a good oatmeal shampoo and conditioner for a puppy with sensitive skin?

It's the only brand i've been able to find that has shampoo and conditioner.

and is conditioning really all that great or does it not matter?

Conditioners are not necessary. Good daily brushing with proper tools will keep them free of matting and move the natural oils throughout the coat keeping it in good shape as well as their skin.

I love conditioners on a doggy. IMO, they are necessary to get the full softness. Conditioners work by balancing out any left over ions from the shampoo, and IMO, can't have one without the other.

I've always heard good things about oaty shampoos too, but I don't use them (intolerance to oats so it freaks me out )..

good oatmeal

I use Vet Solutions Aloe & Oatmeal Shampoo for my clients with sensitive skin. It's formulation adds essential moisture to skin so no conditioner is necessary. It is so gentle I can also use it on puppies and cats.
