Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic & Antiseborrheic Medicated Dog Shampoo, 16 oz – Paraben, Dye, Soap Free – Hydrating and Antifungal Shampoo for Dogs, White

It’s been 10 days today and the mange is almost gone. I used a combination of DermaPet" Benzoyl Peroxide Plus Shampoo (DermaBenSS); Davis Benzoyl Peroxide Medicated Dog & Cat Shampoo, Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs, and Nu-Stock. I’ll outline what I did in a second. Some background: My 10 year old boxer contracted what looked to be demodectic mange. She got bumps on her skin, some large, some smaller. They would start leaking pus, then crust over, and when they scabs came off, she’d have a dark, calloused patch of bald skin. She wasn’t terribly itchy. And she didn’t get stinky. The sores were mostly on her back. Granted, this wasn’t the worst case of mange, by a longshot. She’d recently had two procedures under general anesthesia and I wasn’t keen on the idea of subjecting her toxic dips and other potentially harmful meds, especially given her age. So first I tried the Listerine & baby oil route. Didn’t really help. Then I switched to Borax, hydrogen peroxide and water. That helped a little, but I had to go out of town for a week and couldn’t treat her. When I got back, she looked worse and had more bald patches. She also had a new oozing sore. I read up on Amazon and chose the four products I mentioned earlier: DermaPet" Benzoyl Peroxide Plus Shampoo (DermaBenSS); Davis Benzoyl Peroxide Medicated Dog & Cat Shampoo, Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs, and Nu-Stock. First, I washed her as directed with the benzoyl peroxide shampoos. These shampoos are supposed to flush the pores out and clean out the gunk. I used this step to essentially prep her skin for the following two steps. FYI – DermaBenSS lathers up more and has a coconut-y scent, but Davis seems just as good. I used a little of both. I didn’t need a lot of shampoo. Just remember, these shampoos don’t lather up like regular shampoo, so don’t keep putting it on thinking you need more. I think of this stuff more like a benzoyl peroxide face wash. (Those don’t really later up either.) I kept the shampoo on for 10 minutes, massaging the shampoo into her fur (not scrubbing – I didn’t want to hurt her). Then we rinsed. It’s very easy to rinse off if you don’t gob it on. After that, I used the Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs. This one lathers up much more. I think the benzoyl peroxide shampoos really allowed this stuff to get in and work its magic. I followed the directions and kept it on for 15 minutes. It smells medicine-y. Again, massaging it into her fur. After that, we rinsed and towel dried, then pup shook and rubbed against the length of the furniture a dozen or so times. After she dried off a bit more, I put out a waterproof blanket and got out the Nu-Stock. I read lots of reviews about the smell so I was expecting something horrible. It’s not perfume, that’s for sure, but it’s really not as bad as I expected. It smells pine-y and medicine-y, with a bit of sulfur in there. It dries chalky and it can be greasy, so be careful of your furniture. That’s why I put the waterproof picnic blanket on my bed. I applied Nu-Stock directly to her new sores and recent scars, but also spread it over her back where there were quite a few recent scabs. I did this by thinning the Nu-Stock with baby oil, and using an old hair dye brush to make sure the solution got in good contact with her skin. The Nu-Stock sticks pretty well, so your pup might look a little odd with the yellow stuff on her coat. Again, I think the benzoyl peroxide shampoo helped prepare her skin so she could get the full benefit of this product. I repeated this process every three days. On the third and fourth washes, I started using a washcloth to make sure every part of her skin was cleaned properly. Again, not scrubbing, just washing gently. All told, she’s been washed and treated with Nu-Stock 4 times. And OH WHAT A DIFFERENCE. 1. No new sores have popped up, for the first time since she contracted this horrible condition 2. The open sores have healed with new pink skin, not the dark, calloused hard skin that usually appeared when scabs fell off 3. Hair is growing back nicely – even on the older scars This treatment actually makes her coat shiny. Today, she actually seemed like she felt better after her bath – she was romping around like a puppy. I am so grateful to these companies for their amazing products. I think using all these products in tandem made for my pup’s quick recovery. I’m never going without these. As long as I have a fur baby, my cupboard will be stocked with these fantastic products!

We have a GSD who has had skin issues starting after puberty around ~2 years old, and the only thing that helps keep her comfortable in the Midwest's awful mold/spore/allergy seasons (spring, summer, fall) is a weekly bath. We've tried OTC meds, prescription meds, shots, special diets - EVERYTHING and nothing seemed to help. We started doing weekly baths (once every two weeks in the dead of winter) with this specific shampoo and are so impressed! Her skin is no longer red and irritated, it helps keep her oily skin and coat at bay, and she's not up half the night itching like before! We have even tried every combination of prescription shampoo, OTC shampoo and even other ones from this brand - and this one is hands down the best. The smell isn't our favorite (tar-y smell to it a little) but it mostly goes away after a day or two. Our dog is so much happier with clean skin, knows our bathing routine so makes it easy on us, and after we let the shampoo sit on her skin/coat for a minimum of 15 minutes, we are set for 7-10 days of a shiny coat, soft skin and no dermatitis! This shampoo has saved us from constantly going to the vet for treatments and further expenses. It took us a long time to finally land on a product that works well for our dog's skin and is cost effective. My local Walmart carries this shampoo as well, so in a pinch I have it no problem - but if your dog is running into similar issues, try this out and develop a good bathing/shampooing regimen for your dog! The trick is to definitely let the shampoo sit on the skin for a minimum 10 minutes and as an added bonus, wash their fur/hair/skin with a mild shampoo beforehand, so the "medication" portion of this shampoo can do it's job directly at the source - on the skin. We also dilute the shampoo, roughly 2-3 tablespoons for 16 ounces warm water (add water first, then shampoo to not create suds) and use THAT to shampoo our pup. It works great, ensures that all the remaining shampoo is rinsed off at the end, and you don't "overdue" it with the shampoo and waste any. Happy bathing!

No doubt it is an expensive bottle of shampoo, but it really works. My dog had a bald spot above his eye and a few under his chin. Used twice a week for three weeks. Hair started growing back the second week, and now he's back to normal. So it's worth buying it. It smells OK, and he tolerated the waiting with on for 15 mins well. And he hates being washed, so was very surprised.

Its been 3 months, and I'm really impressed with this shampoo, my dogs skin had been awful for a long time and was given apoquel from the vets but even though that stopped the itching it didnt clear up the problem, which is a yeast infection. The shampoo isnt an over night cure but it 100% helped from the first wash easing her itching & redness. But you have to be dedicated, I bathed my dog 3 times a week at first, from December, making sure to leave it on in a thick lather for 15 mins (dog not impressed) its now February and I am now at 1-2 baths a week. Her skin is 80% better, her ears are prob still the worst area but obviously I cant put too much shampoo on there and our other dog licks her ears when we arent looking! :| In the first 2 months I was also using a antiseptic powder for dogs twice a day morning and night to dry up that greasy yeastiness in between baths (and after she was dried after her baths) but now on month 3 that hasnt been needed as shes not getting the damp wetness under her belly now. I will keep using this shampoo weekly for a while and then I will prob always use this on her and its been so good and really cleans well. So yes, 5/5 but be consistent leave it on for at least 15 mins, and you will see results. I stopped the apoquel in January as id been told it affects the immune system so that wouldn't help my dog try fight off the yeast infection. She still scratches a bit but no where near as much and isnt making herself sore. I also make sure to wash her bed at least weekly. I have a couple I can swap out to do this. First 3 pics before, last 3 are now.

The best thing about SynergyLabs, for me and my Miniature Schnauzer, is their formulation. Billy Jr. has (like nearly all Schnauzers) Schnauzer Comedo Syndrome. These are little genetic-derived pimples (non-infectious or life-threatening...think, adolescent acne). Oddly enough, they don't have a remedy or cure for it. However, I think the tar inside of SynergyLabs shampoo keeps the syndrome manageable. Previously, I only used to bathe Billy, 1x every 2-3 weeks, as they advise online. That doesn't work for Schnauzers. The Miniature Schnauzer has a double coat'” a wiry topcoat, with a soft undercoat'” that requires frequent brushing, combing, and grooming to look its best. The breed sheds very little. For the show ring, some of the dog's coat is regularly 'stripped' by hand. So, bathing that little is like humans washing their hair 1x per 3-weeks. Yuk! The oil that builds up is the same in Billy Jr. That's why this shampoo, bathed 1-2x per week keeps everything under control. I've tried other shampoos (without the formulation SynLabs has) and it wasn't effective. That's why this is our second purchase. I can't say enough about how happy this Mini' dad is.

I am buying this shampoo for last 2 or 3 years! Really like it! Gives lots of foam, economical in usage, has nice smell as for me (medical).
