Organic Dog Shampoo

Have you guys heard of this before? Looks really neat and I think I am going to try it out... It is apparently the first organic pet shampoo. We have made the switch to organic with cleaning supplies, milk, veggies, etc. so I guess it would make sense to try this stuff out too!

I got it from an article about how to get skunk odor out of your dog. WHile I don't have that problem, there were some neat tips on other things related to odor too... This is what caught my eye:

"The ingredient list of pet shampoo is as important as that of pet food, because toxic ingredients are absorbed into an animal's bloodstream through the skin. What to avoid: sodium lauryl sulfate (a harsh degreaser that causes skin to itch) and the chemical preservative DMDM hydantoin (it releases formaldehyde) or anything ending in the chemical suffix paraben."

Nice..

We, too, are going organic as much as possible. Thanks for the link! I'm using Dr. Bronner's right now because I love the peppermint smell..but it's not dog exclusive..just general soap. I'll give this a try.

good information...

...if you order it, let me know how you like it.
