Natural Essential
Oil Dog Shampoo
Bark N Bath's Dog Shampoo is unique since
it is made with a moisterizing natural liquid soap base which
cleans just as effectively as detergent, but rinses easily.
Natural liquid soap does not dry the skin since its jojoba
oil and retained glycerin (removed from
commercial soaps for use in other products, and not found
at all in detergents).
Other dog shampoo on the market
contains artificial lather boosters that can dry your dog's
skin out. Our shampoo will not create lots of lather, but it
cleans effectively and rinses easily.
This shampoo is scented with pure
essential oils - nothing artificial. These oils remove dog
odor without leaving a perfume residue on your dog that he
will want to remove as soon as possible! Natural oils will
re-moisturize your dog's skin and shine his coat during bathing.
You will be
able to feel the difference versus chemical laden shampoos.
Scents: Cedarwood,
Lavender, Lemongrass, Mint, Unscented.
Having
trouble deciding on a shampoo scent? Lavender is
soothing, excellent for dogs who are anxious about bath
time,
and mint
is a terrific deodorizing scent! Note: mint is also a coat brightener,
perfect for white dogs!

What
to Look for in a Dog Perfume
When
you are shopping for dog perfume, remember to ask yourself what
you are looking for. Obviously, you want a perfume that deodorizes
that dog odor, but don't you also want a product that won't dry
out or irritate your dog's skin? Although the term "perfume"
typically indicates a product made with a high concentration of
fragrance oils suspended in an alcohol base, you should look for
a dog perfume that is alcohol free in order to keep your dog's
skin from drying out. Also, artificial fragrance oils may contain
a variety of undisclosed chemical ingredients which could potentially
irritate your dog's skin. Look for a product which uses natural
essential oil as it's scent.
Do
You Know What's in Your Dog Shampoo?
It is important to choose a dog shampoo which addresses
your dog’s grooming needs without exposing these sensitive
animals to artificial perfumes or detergents. In
today's modern society, we often expose our companion animals
to a variety of artificial perfumes, insecticides, and detergents
found in common grooming products and treatments. While these
products usually do their jobs effectively, some of their ingredients
can cause both allergic and nervous reactions in dogs. You are
left with a squeaky clean, flea free, pina-colada scented dog
that itches like the dickens, and will often rush off to find
some soothing mud to cool her skin and remove the overwhelming
perfumed scent from her coat.
Throw
a Dog Birthday Party!
Dog birthday parties are becoming increasingly
popular. You can celebrate even if you don't know your dog's birthday.
Just choose a date to commemorate the day your puppy joined your
family, and prepare to lavish him with love! You
could celebrate at a dog park, but if you have an appropriate
sized backyard, why not invite your puppy's playmates over for
a fun off-leash day right there?
Have
an itchy dog? Non Chemical Grooming Tips
Many dogs today suffer from itchy, irritated skin caused by a
variety of factors. Their owners often fret that they are suffering
from allergies and take the dog to the vet, who prescribes medication.
However, in many cases, the “itch factor” may have
a simpler cause and solution. Dogs have a more sensitive skin
than we humans do, and are often exposed to a variety of irritants
in their indoor and outdoor environments. Before turning to medicated
products, try these grooming tips, which may help to alleviate
your dog’s irritation.

Essential Oil and Dog Aromatherapy
Lavender
is among the gentlest of all essential oils. Its light floral
scent is said to calm and relax those who smell it; it is also
purported to possess healing qualities, and is often put to use
on itchy skin as a healing aid. Essential oils are made by distilling
pure plant material. They are different from fragrance oils, which
can be made with a variety of artificial ingredients. In addition

properties.

Grooming Tips to Consider
Can you regularly groom the type of dog you want yourself, or
can you afford to have it done professionally? Inquire about the
cost with your local groomer before deciding, and talk to others
who own such dogs. Starting from a young age, praising your dog
during and after the grooming process, and brushing and bathing
on a regular basis will help to ensure that you both enjoy this
time together. Your dog may not enjoy being bathed at first, but
remember that you aren't doing your dog a favor by letting him
get so stinky that you don't want to cuddle him! Dirty skin, matted
hair, and uninspected wounds can also lead to more serious problems.
Praise him effusively, of course, and keep grooming sessions short
when he is a puppy so he doesn't become bored.
