<p>Good point! I keep a plastic mixing bowl with the dog washing stuff. Put a squirt of shampoo in, then fill with water. Slosh this over the dog, scoop up handfulls to splash on the legs and underside. Rub around and rinse. I use less shampoo that way. I started doing this because a dog was getting dry patches where I was pouring on shampoo.</p>

<p>I second the notion of washing him yourself a couple times to see if there's a difference. You can also try pre-diluting the shampoo - makes the soap a bit less concentrated before it touches his skin, so he's less likely to get a chemical burn. It also lathers up more easily when you pre-dilute. </p>

<p>Like Ellen and Jane, I think he might be allergic to the shampoo, conditioner, or another product that they use on him. You could ask them to switch to a different product, perhaps, and see if that helps at all. You may also wish to ask them to be gentle with the comb/brush, just in case. You might want to try bathing him yourself once or twice and see if he has any reactions to the products. </p>

<p>I would guess he is allergic to the products they are using or they are being too rough with whatever tool they are using to groom him (furminator type brush maybe?).</p>
