How much shampoo do you have to use on a 6lb dog per bath (how long will a 16 ounce bottle last)? I'm trying to figure out how many bottles to purchase.

I believe the container states to wet dog and lather it into the coat doesn't give a amount...but 16oz is only a cup I guess it depends on how often you want to give a bath...I will tell you it's sent is strong

Oh man, our dog is roughly around 50 lbs, and we still have the first bottle that I bought roughly 7 months ago, so it lasts a while. Then again, our pup HATES baths, so we only give her one every few weeks or so. It mists out well and foams up REALLY good. I would say that it should last you easily a year, but that ultimately depends on how often you bathe your pup. Sorry it's a bit more of a vague answer than you were probably hoping to get.

I'm sorry I have two 40-50 lb dogs and I used the entire bottle. The pump action got to be a pain and the dogs got aggravated with me. But they sure smelled wonderful and felt better once I was done.

Not much. I have 3 dogs and only a small amount lathers up very well for us. We do have soft water, though. If you have hard water, that might make a difference.

I have the 6.76 oz. they are the same thing, but I believe the 6.76 oz is a better price per ounce. I use with the shampoo and conditioner but I heard the thing that really makes the difference is this scalp treatment. I highly recommend it in either size.

I use full size bottles of shampoo and conditioner. But I'm sure even the larger bottles would work too. It would just make it very heavy.

The bottles are, I think 34 ounces, though i have no idea how much is used per application. There are two separate timed application lengths, one seemingly twice as long as the other I suppose for heavier application. Never mind how long it lasts, it works.

I used half a bottle on my 8lb hairless crested on her haid, paws, and tail. You have to saturate the coat and scrub the dye into the root of the hair or it won't work. Longer you leave it on the better. For your dog I would say at least 6-7 bottles. Just make sure you get enough on/through the coat or you will have to redye. And leave it on at least 20 min.

Outside I use it on my medium sized dog. In the house I put her in the bathtub and use the shower spray. It's good for the bigger dog if he doesn't mind being bathed and will hold still. I don't think it's necessary for the smaller dog.

A lot. I have a golden who got a bad water in the ear ear infection and I used the bottle for about two weeks once a day. I had a half a bottle remaining. Think small sample bottles for shampoo and thats the size you get, not the punee amount you get at a vet that lasts like 5 days and doesn't fully ride the deep down problem.

I don't wash after each use. If the dog actually uses it every day, I would say I would wash it every 3 days. But I have mine on the bed where she sleeps and she hardly ever goes on it - just accidents. I would go by smell because they dry between uses so it's not like they stay wet. Just to keep them clean, I wash it every few weeks even if she hasn't used it for anything other than to lay on it. I hope that this helps!

I agree with the other answers. Each animal will vary. We had a 60 lb GS/ACD mix. I doubled the dose as directed. I think somewhere around Day 10 I started to lose heart and believe I bought into a bunch of hype but decided to at least finish the bottle before passing judgement. Very shortly after this, maybe at the beginning of week two, he woke up a different dog one morning!

Well, I have 4 small dogs and it takes us about 4-5 months to go through one bottle and it really does the job--it really works. Hope that answers your question.

That's a big pup. The dose should be followed. I gave the 4 times daily the first week and then turned down the volume to twice a day for the next 4 weeks. My dog required 13 drops each session and the first one ounce bottle went quickly. Yours should last considerably longer due to having a smaller dose requirement. That bottle should give you a month. I would consider giving after the initial introduction, the heavier dose in the morning due to daily activity and a smaller sleep shot to maintain quality care.Let me know how we're doing along the way.Robert

you may want to visit synergylabs website or even a grooming supply and see if they offer it by the gallon. Usually they do offer larger bottles.

This is a HUGE bottle! 1 will last for a long time. I have been using it for the past 2 months and I would way I have used less than 1/6th of the bottle. I have a 16LB dog and I use it every day.

My dog is never to excited about bath time. So I just lathered and took my time. My guess would be 5 minutes. Then I would rinse real good.

Hi Cody.. Its been awhile since I purchased the 16.8oz size. I personally rather buy the 26oz that was $1 more at the time I made my purchase, which all three of my family members use on a day to day basis and I ordered it Nov 9th we still have enough for at least 2 more months. I hope this was helpful!
