It depends on what you are using the shampoo for. If it is just maintenance baths I recommend an oatmeal based pet shampoo. You can get one at any pet store. Do not use a human shampoo as you can dry out their skin. If Honey is having a skin problem I recommend a shampo from a veterinarian, depending on the issue.
