Vets Own Skin Soothing Shampoo 250ml

Vets Own Skin Soothing Shampoo is a pet shampoo made for dogs and cats with skin allergies, skin irritation or skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. Its formula includes aloe vera, chamomile and lavender, so it suits owners looking for a gentle, plant-based shampoo for a sensitive pet. It comes in a 250 ml size.

Key Benefits

• Made for pets with skin allergies, skin irritation, or skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema.
• Aloe vera is known for its softening and healing properties. It is also used on light burns and bug bites on the skin, which is why it is valued for rough, irritated skin.
• Aloe vera also softens the coat, so it helps leave the fur feeling smoother after a wash.
• Chamomile has anti-inflammatory properties and is considered a soothing herb. It is used to help ease anxious or stressed pets.
• Lavender has the same calming effect on pets as it does on people. It acts on the central nervous system, with calming, grounding and almost sedation-like effects, and is used for pets prone to anxiety or stress.
• A rich lather makes it easy to work through the coat for a thorough wash.

How to Use

• Wet the coat well with lukewarm water.
• Apply the shampoo liberally and work it in to create a good lather.
• Wash thoroughly, then rinse with lukewarm water.
• Dry your pet thoroughly after washing. Use a towel to dry the coat.
• Once dry, comb your pet well.
• Avoid contact with the eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse the eyes with clean water.

Dosage

Use liberally, enough to build a good lather over the whole coat. Repeat shampooing weekly or as necessary.

Suitable For
