Description
Bathing our beloved pets who have skin allergies and sensitivities makes it challenging to find a dog shampoo that effectively cleans without irritation. By blending an EcoCert approved cleansing system with seven certified organic cellular plant extracts, remedial oils, and practitioner essential oils, your sensitive dog will feel clean, soft, shiny, happy, and smelling fresh as a daisy.
This toxin-free, quality dog shampoo nourishes skin cells, softens the coat, and produces a rich and foamy lather without using sulphates. It effectively cleans without stripping the natural oils on the epidermal layer, which functions as a barrier to protect the skin from bacterial and yeast infections, dehydration, pollutants, and allergens.Plant-based, pH-balanced, free from sulphates, parabens, phthalates, artificial fillers, colours, fragrances and aroma chemicals.
Up to 30 washes per 250ml bottle mean a little goes a long way: a light, delicate herbal scent with a hint of citrus and floral tones. Suitable for all breeds, ages and skin types. Directions: Wet your dog thoroughly, apply 1/2-1 pump (1-2mls for a medium sized dog) and gently massage into the torso & neck. Use 1/4-1/2 pump on each leg. Rinse thoroughly.

My dog has sensitive skin. Is this product suitable?
Yes. In fact all of our shampoos and conditioners are suitable. They're ultra gentle and formulated specifically for sensitive dogs and will not lead to skin irritations.
How often should I bath my dog?
A normal, healthy adult dog should be bathed no more than once a fortnight. Over-bathing dogs, including those with sensitive skin can strip the natural oils that protect the skin and can lead to skin irritations and itching.
Essential Dog
Established in 2012, Essential Dog is an 100% Australian Made and Owned brand passionate about providing safer and natural alternatives for your dog with our Premium Natural Dog Shampoos, Conditioners, Deodorisers & Natural Skin Remedies.
After two years of intensive research we found the problem with the majority of grooming products on the market is the use of synthetic fragrances & sulphates which are highly irritating to a dogs skin and often cause skin problems such as dermatitis, allergies, itching, redness & irritated skin.
Our products were carefully developed using veterinarians, naturopaths, chemists & natural perfumers and we have released a range of revolutionary dog grooming products like no other on the market. Unlike other natural dog grooming products on the market, we have formulated a natural shampoo that is thick & foamy without using sulphates and this is achieved by sourcing the highest quality ingredients commercially available without sparing any expense.
Our artisan aromatherapy blends are carefully crafted by Australia’s leading natural pet perfumer and were designed for their aromatic properties to promote bath time as a pleasurable & relaxing experience for dogs & their owners. Our scents can be described as simply breathtaking.
Our entire product line is formulated to alleviate dogs with sensitive skin or skin allergies and our pH balanced products are as mild as water & will not strip your dog of its natural oils.

Aromatherapy
Essential oils are the most natural way to scent a product. Not only are they completely natural, they smell great and benefit both dog and owner to make bath time a pleasurable and relaxing experience.
