Researchers now think that the wide use of antibacterial soaps is 
contributing to drug resistant strains of bacteria and infections in 
humans.  I'm sure this will carry over into the animal world in the 
future.  Sorry I did not save that article.  There was a segment on 
GMA on washing hands.  Plain water gets rid of most all bacteria, 
plain soap and hot water all.  The antibacterial soaps are really not 
needed.  I would think it would be the same for animals??
