Good money says that you don’t know just how important your shampoo of choice is, not only for your dog’s fur and skin, but also for its well-being. Yes, whether or not you choose to believe it, your pick of doggie bath products plays a bigger role than you think in caring for your dog. And when you find out how, you’ll also understand why using [natural dog shampoo on old Fido is your best option.
The foundation for this claim? Simply that using the wrong shampoo could potentially damage a dog's coat and irritate its skin – and that's putting it lightly.
For example, far too many owners bathe their dogs in shampoos that don't have the right pH level. And by that, I mean that there is no shortage of people that are guilty of using human shampoo on their dogs. Why is this a problem? Because human skin is 10-15 cell layers thick, while dog skin tops out at around 3-5 layers.
This significant difference in thickness only means that the latter is much more sensitive than the former, and that a shampoo with a high pH could do some serious damage to a dog's skin – damage that could be seen in heightened vulnerability to allergens and increasingly dry skin.
Moreover, some dogs may be allergic to certain chemicals in human shampoos, and even some chemicals in commercial dog shampoos. A possible reason for this? These products might want to do much more than what is actually asked of them (read: to cleanse hair), such as fending off fleas, thickening fur, giving off a fragrant aroma, acting as [dog shampoo for allergies], or any combination of the above, that sometimes the volatile mix or sheer amount of chemicals overwhelms the dog, making things worse before making them better.
What’s ironic is that some of the manufacturers of these products, so adamant in making something that goes beyond regular shampoo, succeed in their goal at the expense of their products’ ability to do what quality shampoos should do well. What does this mean? Even if these products can get rid of fleas or alleviate allergies, they remain poor excuses for dog shampoos because they can’t properly clean or nourish a dog’s fur.
So what makes natural dog shampoo better than human shampoo or any of the above commercial products? For starters, [natural dog shampoo] is made from all-natural ingredients, not artificial chemicals that have a good chance of triggering a risky allergic reaction or two in every other dog – a fact that allows them to be classified as “[dog shampoo for allergies]” more so than most commercial products. In other words, the chances your dog has of experiencing side effects as a result of continued use of these natural products range from slim to none.
Aside from stressing safety, though, natural products are also capable of going beyond what it is expected of regular shampoos without compromising shampoo’s real function. They alleviate dogs’ allergies, smoothen their skin, and still manage to give them a coat of fur good enough to boast.
And, perhaps most importantly, natural products can keep your dog so well-groomed that you can immediately notice the early manifestations of a variety of mild or serious skin disorders, should they come, so that you can nip the problem in the bud.
The bottom line? Natural dog shampoo can keep old Fido from living a dog’s life (pun intended). So maybe now is the time to think about your dog and look at the natural dog shampoo that would suit them! Save 5% on your first order of Natural Dog Shampoo! Coupon code CJ15.
