How To Use
- Wet the coat right through to the skin with warm water.
- Work the shampoo in from the neck backwards, massaging down to the skin rather than just over the top.
- Rinse thoroughly, then repeat if the coat was very dirty.
- Rinse again until the water runs clear, then towel and dry the coat completely.
Good To Know
- Tearless means it does not sting, not that it is harmless in the eye. Still rinse straight away if any gets in.
- Hypoallergenic has no legal definition in pet products. It means the usual irritants have been left out, not that no animal will react.
- The 3.8 litre bottle is the professional size and weighs around 4 kg full. The Chris Christensen gallon pump fits it if you would rather not pour.
- Eyes that run constantly, or a dog that rubs its face, is not a shampoo problem. Persistent tearing can mean blocked tear ducts, entropion, allergies or an ulcer - see a vet.
- Puppies should not be bathed until they are properly settled and warm enough to dry quickly, and never while they still feel cold afterwards.
- Avoid the eyes. If any gets in, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water. For external use only.
- If your dog has sensitive skin or has reacted to a product before, test a little on a small patch first and stop using it if you see redness, itching or scurf.
- Rinse until the water runs completely clear. Shampoo left in the coat is one of the most common causes of itching after a bath.
- Dry thoroughly - skin folds, ears, armpits and between the toes. A coat left damp in UAE humidity is how hot spots and yeast get started.
- Washing too often strips the coat of the oils that protect it. Most dogs need a bath every four to eight weeks unless your vet has said otherwise.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- This is a grooming product, not a treatment. Persistent itching, scratching, hair loss, scabs, a smell or a rash point to a skin problem - fleas, allergies, mites or infection - and need a vet rather than a different shampoo.
