Substitute for Swiffer Dry Mop Cloths?I have 2 large long furred dogs who shed constantly. The Swiffer dry refills are great for my tile floors, but very pricey.

Remedies for Dog with Seborrhea?I have a German Shepherd with seborrhea. He is bathed twice a week with Sebazol, takes 1200 mg fish oil, vitamins E and A, and 4 Benadryl a day (all on the advice of our vet). Nothing seems to work.
