Dogs with allergies

Maintaining your dog's skin and coat health is just one of many important steps when grooming your dog. But did you know that if you use human shampoo on your dog, you could be stripping your dog's skin of its natural oils? Many human grade shampoos contain chemicals that are too harsh to use on dogs.
Help relieve your dog's itching by using a dog shampoo formulated with soothing ingredients like oatmeal, aloe vera, or hydrocortisone.

Dog shampoos that relieve itching
Relief Shampoo helps to relieve your dog's itching caused by inflammation, insect bites, and hot spots.

Dog shampoos with essential fatty acids
Essential fatty acids help control dry skin and flaking caused by persistent scratching.

Dog shampoos with oatmeal or aloe vera
Shampoos with oatmeal and aloe vera help moisturize and soothe your dog's skin.

Tip

Giving your dog an Omega 3 vitamin supplement like Brite Coat XS may help improve your pet's health, including its skin and coat.
