getting white dogs white

One of my greyhounds has pee'ed on their bed. The result is Button now has yellow legs and William is completely yellow.

What can I use to get them back white?

I have some shampoo from Dorwest herbs but I can't use it on William.Every time I use it on him he comes out in lumps I spoke to Dorwest herbs and they said the only other time this happened the dog was allergic to mint so we are assuming William is allergic to the mint in it. William is not really a problem as he's not been shown at the moment but Button is going to crufts and I'd like her to go with white legs.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Get them in the sea!!!!

when we got Lola she had been in kennels for 8 months and her feet were yellow..

and I swear it was her walking in the sea that took them back to white..

There is a whitening shampoo you can buy but I have forgotten the name. I can only remember that peeps on here told me you can buy it at Crufts (that will be a bit late eh?)
The other thing suggested was bi-cabonate of soda, I have to admit it didn't work on Mo though. She just gradually whitened herself.

Selkie uses Shaws white dog shampoo It's actually pale blue, and dyes her slightly, so it negates any yellow beautifully... Does leave her almost painful to look at white!

I recommend it

Most people say DAZ But no, neither of these will do the job and both would be more likely to make your white dog red and flakey as you battled the skin irritation

I use fairy liquid in small quantities on small areas with no problems whatsoever. Fudge is a very white dog who has a craving for curry. It has helped up out on more than one occasion.

I just make sure it is very well rinsed off. I would also advise a spot test first particularly on a dog with sensitive skin.
