Looking for a New Natural Dog Shampoo? Ingredients are Everything!
While most pet parents have become much more aware about fillers and low quality ingredients in pet food, many haven't thought about giving the same attention to the ingredients that go on their dog's bodies by way of grooming products.
Would you buy your dog food if this was the complete list of ingredients on the product label?
Meat-based. Meat, Vegetables, Organic, Natural Ingredients.
Of course you wouldn't.
It doesn’t tell you anything such as what kind of meat, or any indication that it is truly organic or all natural.
It is easy to assume when you see the words "organic" and "all natural" on the label that the product must be good! Right? Wrong!
So, then WHY would a consumer buy a shampoo with these ingredients?
Plant-based. Coconut-derived, Oatmeal, Aloe, Palm Extract. Organic, Natural Ingredients
That's right.
You wouldn't. Those are vague descriptions of what is in the bottle and in some cases aren't listing the ingredients at all! “Plant-based” is not an ingredient, nor is “coconut-derived”.
Unfortunately, I didn't make this list up. It is the actual ingredients from a shampoo product selling online.
Did you know that the vast majority of shampoo manufacturers don’t even have to provide the complete list of ingredients on their label?
Only those that are officially certified to organic having met the standards for organic certification as regulated by the USDA National Organic Program are required to provide a complete ingredient list on the label of the product.
That’s about 2% or less of the entire shampoo industry.
If you are trusting in the other 98% to have your dog’s health interests in mind, you are very likely exposing your dog to ingredients that you would never knowingly use if you had all the information.
Focus On Ingredients
When it comes to choosing the best pet shampoo for your furry family, the ingredient list is where you should focus.
Ignore all of the marketing materials. Ignore the look of the label.
Focus 100% of your attention on the ingredient list.
Clean ingredients are why 4-Legger Organic Dog Shampoo stands out as a top choice for pet owners committed to providing their dogs with the safest and most natural grooming products available.
Why Ingredients Matter
Your dog's skin is his largest organ and his first line of defense against harmful environmental factors. Just like with human products, the quality and source of ingredients in dog shampoos can significantly impact their health and well-being.
