Earth Rated Deshedding Dog Shampoo, Hypoallergenic 3-in-1, Shampoo & Conditioner for Dogs & Puppies, Deodorizing, 98.5% Natural Origin Ingredients, 16 oz

I have been grooming my dog (mini Australian Shepherd) for the last few years and thought the shampoos I used were doing a good job; I wasn’t getting the same results as when I used to take him to a professional groomer but figured I wasn’t cutting enough hair off. BOY WAS I WRONG - the PROBLEM was the shampoos I was using weren’t getting enough of his “dead”/shed but not released hair off!! I brushed my dog pre bath and thought I got a lot of the shed off. I put him in the bath, let him soak in some water, then took the hand held sprayer to really saturate his double coat with water. I applied the Double Coat shampoo directly to his skin and on top of his coat. Within seconds I see clumps of hair releasing from his coat! I decided to wet him a little more after applying the shampoo to get a better lather and then went with a wide tooth comb to work the product from roots to ends; even more hair was coming out. I honestly got a little scared by the amount of hair coming out so after a few minutes I decided to focus on rinsing the product out. I could immediately notice a difference in the texture of his fur after it was rinsed - it felt so clean!!! I did quickly use his normal conditioner on the top layer of his fur, rinsed, and began the drying process. As his fur started to dry I felt how soft, light, and airy it was - I haven’t achieved this level of results ever; only the groomers were able to do this. As I was drying his hair I noticed even more dead undercoat come blowing out with the dryer too! End result, my dog looks amazing and honestly seems happier - I wish I would’ve known about this product sooner!!! As for the smell, I liked the smell, I can see how some folks say that it is a little strong but that’s only while the product is in the fur, once it’s washed out it fades away but my dog still smells fresh 24 hours later. TLDR: groomer quality shampoo, will continue to purchase although I feel I will get quite a few washes out of this bottle. My dog looks (and I can tell feels) like a million bucks! Wish I would’ve known about this shampoo sooner. If you have a dog with a double coat - BUY THIS NOW!

I just received this today and washed my German Shepherd who only gets occasional baths (he doesn’t need them often). The shampoo we use on our beagle doesn’t work as well for the GSD. This works well. It is super easy to apply with the elongated dispensing tip, and gets into the undercoat. It lathers well, and rinses clean. It does seem to condition also, as when he dried his coat was shiny and and smooth. Not greasy or any residue. I washed him in our garden tub with a hand held shower head if that helps to understand the technique I used. The scent wasn’t strong, which was nice - he doesn’t smell like perfume. I’m not sure I like the scent it does have, but it’s so mild unless you stick your nose in his fur it’s not too noticeable- and I have a fairly strong sniffer. All in all, I will buy this again. Even used it on thr beagle and it worked well on his fur and skin. He needs baths more often due to skin allergies - so it’s nice to have an option that is all in one so every bath isn’t a full production.

First shampoo that I have purchased that my dogs don’t stink after! 2 of my dogs have very sensitive skin and this have worked great for them! Smell is very subtle, but nice! Would highly recommend and will be purchasing again.

I bought this to use on my faily curly Goldendoodle. The smell out of the bottle is a bit strong, but after bathing and washing it out, it leaves a nice rosewater scent. It washes out clean with minimal suds even though with lathing a good amount of suds. I left the product on an additional 4 minutes hoping the additional time would leave my dog's coat nice and tangled free since it is marketed as a 3 in 1 product. After towel drying, I found this wasn't the case and in the end wound up applying a Detangler Spray. It did leave my dog soft. I would buy this again, along with the additional Detangler Spay.

Caveat: this is a dog who is accustomed to regular grooming and is always cooperative about it. This shampoo (with no added conditioner or detangling product) gave us the easiest and best blowout ever. Her coat always has minor snarls after she gets wet, and they brushed out easily following her bath with this shampoo. The drying itself seemed faster than usual, and she was so soft and fluffy. The scent was pleasant, but not strong. (I always dilute shampoo before applying to minimize residue on the skin). It lathered nicely and I felt that her coat got very clean. She generally smelled like a pleasant version of herself, if that makes sense. She was more relaxed than usual for the brush/blowdry part, she lay on her side and let me work without fidgeting or “protecting” her most tangled regions. Value for money… (Amazon asked) If you’re willing to do the work, you are likely to be pleased enough with this product to justify the price. If you are just looking to scrub mud or stink off your dog and are ok letting with how their coat clumps naturally afterwards, you might be happy with what’s available at TJ Maxx, etc for a lower price. Since I always dilute shampoo (I fill an empty shampoo bottle most of the way with water, then add maybe 2 tablespoons of shampoo), this will cost approximately $1 per bath. This product will not do the work for you. This kind of coat must be brushed and blow dried to prevent matting. I would recommend this product (curly coat version) in between regular professional groomings. If your dog is matted now, he or she may need to be shaved before you can allow the coat to grow as long as this lady’s without tangling. She typically sees her groomer every 6 weeks and we do a bath and blowout once or twice in between, depending on whether it rains and/or if she’s had a chance to swim or get muddy.

My Golden Retriever puppy feels so soft and fluffy after bath time with this. Smells great and I have not noticed any tangles after blow drying.

I've tried a few other brands before purchasing this one. I'm very happy with the consistency of the shampoo, the bottle was easy to squeeze, the shampoo lathered nicely and I didn't need to use alot of product on my 90lb golden. My dog's coat looks and feels so soft and smooth. We brushed before and after the bath and it appears to have done a nice job of cleaning up the undercoat. It also has a nice subtle scent. I will purchase this again.

This shampoo is a God send, its that time of year when exploring results in smelly mud coated adventures, had problems with my last shampoos that caused irritation, this was recommended by the vet and have to say that its been tolerated well, good smell and foaming that led to a shiney coat and happy clean dog. { and soft hands for me } excellent, will order and use again when needed

Perfect for a filthy Labrador who has an ability to seek out the dirtiest, dankest pools of water and roll around. Easy to use. No skin irritation. Smells good. One clean dog until the next time!

The best shampoo we’ve used, we have a large double coated German shepherd and this shampoo was fantastic. The lather was great, the scent was lovely, his coat is now so shiny and fluffy, with the help of brush scrubbing gloves (also highly recommend these!) it really got under his double coat and lifted the deep dirt. You actually don’t need too much product either to get a good lather so very good value for money. Highly recommend its effectiveness.

Good quality dog shampoo. Reasonably priced. Fragrance isn't too strong
