You might be used to using an organic shampoo for yourself or your family but what about for your canine companion? Here you can find out the benefits of choosing an organic dog shampoo.
Why buy a dedicated pet shampoo?
In the UK, pets aren’t just treated like a member of the family, they are family! However you should only ever wash your dog with a shampoo that’s natural and been tailored for them.
This is because some ingredients used in human bath care products may be toxic to pets and could irritate their skin or cause them to become poorly.
What is organic dog shampoo?
A certified organic dog shampoo has to meet certain criteria that prove it to be genuinely natural, eco-friendly and pet-safe.
Often plant-based and cruelty-free, organic pet shampoos cannot contain some of the synthetic ingredients that you might commonly find in non-organic pet shampoos.
AllPaws is Green People’s range of organic pet care products. Certified organic by the Organic Food Federation and approved by PETA, our animal bath care range is made with natural, non-irritating ingredients that gently cleanse and care for all breeds of dog and cat.
When formulating our pet care range we surveyed our customers and 80% of respondents said they’d consider choosing natural or organic pet grooming products. A further 79% said it was very important to them that their pet care products were non-toxic and non-irritating.
Why use organic dog shampoo?
-
Safe and gentle. Certified organic dog shampoos are gentle on the skin and won't contain SLS, an ingredient that may disturb the delicate balance of the skin and cause dogs to itch and scratch.
- Good value for money. These non-irritating shampoos contain a high concentration of pure and natural ingredients which means that although they can often be more expensive than their synthetic counterparts, they actually offer good value for money. You only need to use a little organic dog shampoo to get your pet’s coat clean, shiny and smelling great without exposing their skin and fur to harsh, synthetic ingredients.
- Great for their coat. With natural ingredients designed to boost coat condition, organic dog shampoos promote a healthy, clean coat without harsh chemicals.
Which is the best organic dog shampoo for my pet?
Much like humans different dogs can lead different lifestyles and can be prone to a variety of skin conditions. These not only differ from dog to dog but can vary depending on the breed of your pet.
Bouncy, longhaired dogs like Labradors and sprightly young Spaniels often love to splash in muddy puddles and need a deep-cleansing shampoo that gently detangles knots in their coats and freshens their smelly fur.
An older, short-haired Bassett Hound might struggle with yeast infections and sensitive skin and may need a specialist dog shampoo that cleanses their sore skin without irritation and helps to manage bacterial odours.
To help you choose the best organic shampoo for your dog, allPaws products are naturally tailored to be suitable for all breeds of cat and dog.
