Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right formula for my pet?
Choose based on your pet's primary need. The Therapeutic formula is best for pets with skin irritation, flaking, or yeast concerns. Calming suits anxious pets. Inner Fuel and Energy Boosting supports active or aging pets. Lotus and White Tea or Cherry Blossom and Green Tea are excellent all-purpose options for coat conditioning and shine. Lemongrass is a great choice if you prefer a fresh, bright natural scent.
Are all formulas safe for cats?
Yes. All six formulas are developed for multi-species use including cats. They use concentrated botanical extracts and essential oil blends rather than undiluted essential oils, and contain no sulfates or synthetic chemicals. As with any grooming product, monitor your cat after bathing and consult your veterinarian if any skin or behavioral changes occur.
How often should I bathe my pet with this shampoo?
For most pets, bathing once a week or as needed is appropriate. Wet your pet thoroughly with warm water, apply a small amount of shampoo and lather well, then rinse completely until the water runs clear. Shake the bottle before each use to blend the natural ingredients.
Can I use this shampoo on a horse?
Yes. All formulas are designed for use on dogs, cats, and horses. The concentrated botanical ingredients are effective for larger animals. Adjust the amount used based on your horse's coat thickness and body size, and rinse thoroughly to ensure no residue remains in the coat.
