This ultra gentle formulation aloe dog shampoo will clean and moisturise your dog with organic oils and soothing organic aloe vera without stripping the natural oils from your dog's coat.

It is recommended working with a holistic veterinarian who can advise you on the proper dilution of essential oils.
Ingredients
Coconut Oil: Extremely hydrating, a great moisturizer which helps to provide a protective layer, retaining moisture in the skin while allowing the skin to breathe. As a mild oil, it is very good for inflamed or irritated skin, and on dogs with skin sensitivities.
Olive Oil: Rich in vitamins, minerals, natural fatty acids, and antioxidants. Known for its ability to nourish, rejuvenate, and protect the skin.
Jojoba Oil: A great cleanser and an excellent moisturiser. Jojoba also contains fatty acids that help to rejuvenate and restore dry skin.
Aloe Vera: Aloe has long been known as a natural healer - good for skin and hair/fur. Aloe is used to treat a variety of skin conditions from flaky or dry skin, to burns, minor skin infections, and more. It acts as a natural conditioner to make the hair/fur look shinier, glossier, and healthier.
Rosemary Extract: A very powerful antioxidant that is used as a natural preservative with anti-inflammatory properties.
Please note that natural shampoos behave differently to typical commercial pet shampoos, in that the consistency of the product is more runny and doesn't lather in the same way. You may have a transition period whilst your dog's coat adapts as the synthetic ingredients are removed from your dogs coat. Please read our blog featured on the product page which explains this process. Purchasing a sample is available to see if this range of shampoos is suitable for your dog.

A few tips if you are new to organic dog shampoo:
- Your dog will likely go through a perfectly normal transition period. Don't worry!
- To increase the lather, use more water - not shampoo.
- Consider adding a foamer bottle! It will help you manage the thin consistency by infusing air into the shampoo, as well as keep you from using more than is needed to wash your dog.
- Note: Keep out of your pet's eyes. To wash your pet's face - use a wash cloth.
Want to talk science? No problem. Here is how our product is made: Coconut oil (Cocos nucifera), Olive Oil (Olea europaea) and Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis) is mixed with water and potassium hydroxide under heat in a large kettle. The result of that reaction is Saponified oils of coconut (Potassium cocoate), olive (Potassium olivate), jojoba (Potassium jojobate) and glycerine. The water evaporates off and the glycerine is mixed back in while the potassium hydroxide was used to saponify the oils and is no longer detectable. The organic aloe (Aloe barbadensis Leaf Juice) and Rosemary Extract (Rosmarinus officinalis) are added.
