Who is it for?
This shampoo & conditioner is a fit for dogs who hike, camp, or spend extended time in grass and wooded areas where fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes are a concern. The hypoallergenic, plant-based formula also suits puppies and owners who prefer a sulfate- and paraben-free grooming routine.
Feeding & use
Wet your dog's coat thoroughly, then work the shampoo in from neck to tail, avoiding the eyes. Lather, let it sit briefly so the essential oils can coat the fur, then rinse completely with clean water.
Safe for weekly use. Follow with a conditioner if your dog has a long or double coat.
