earthbath Oatmeal & Aloe Dog Shampoo - Oatmeal Shampoo for Dogs, Dry Itchy Skin Relief, Hypoallergenic Anti Itch Puppy Shampoo for Sensitive Skin, Tear Free Pet Wash - Vanilla & Almond, 16 oz (1 Pack)

I purchased the oatmeal and aloe shampoo and conditioner for my dogs and cat at the recommendation of my vet. My cat suffers from terribly dry skin while my dogs shed quite a bit. This is some of the best animal shampoo I have ever used! Make sure to shake the bottle well prior to using. When I washed my dog's, I followed the directions on the bottle and left the shampoo on for 2 minutes, rinsed, massage conditioner in and left that on for 3 minutes then rinsed and dried. The first hing I noticed immediately was how easily the shampoo and conditioner rinsed off without leaving a residual feeling . The second thing that I noticed was that my dogs hair dried faster and much more smoothly! Their coats were very soft and I did not need to brush them much after as their fur fell into place instead of looking all crazy like it usually does after a bath. I then decided to try it on my cat, but I decided to leave it on a little longer do to her excessively dry skin. After washing her I left the shampoo on for 5 minutes and massage it in, rinsed and conditioned her, which i left on for about 7 minutes. I used more conditioner on her than I did with my dogs, and I also left it on longer, so I thought maybe it would not rinse off as easy. It came off just as easily with no residual feeling. Her coat also dried nicely and she was very soft to the touch. Now came to waiting game, to see how well this really worked. Her skin is so dry that after a bath, once her fur is dry, she is full of dandruff again. We have tried everything with her. Well, once she was dry we didn't notice any dandruff. I was sure we would see some within the next 24 hours. It has now been one week since I have washed her with the shampoo and conditioner, and there is not a flake of dandruff on her. I'm a total believer in this stuff! I absolutely love it! I will continue to purchase and use this stuff in the future. I'd also like to mention that my dogs don't seem to be shedding as much since their bath. All my pets are also on a topical flea preventative and the shampoo and conditioner was definitely gentle enough not to wash away the medication. How do I know? Because we recently moved into a home that has fleas, so all of our animals were treated with Frontline. After washing my animals, there are still no fleas on them and we are only on the second week I'm treating the house. So you know there are still fleas present for about a month after treatment.

I was a bit skeptical to try this on my Australian cattle dog after countless attempts with different shampoos and very little success. I was stuck debating between the Oatmeal & Aloe vs. Tea Tree and Aloe. I decided to go for tea tree, based on her ongoing skin issues.After the first few washings, I started to notice dramatic results with her obsessive scratching, which I feel was either fungal or allergy related, if not a mix of the two. I also looked into her food, trying to get types that had less wheat in the ingredients, since I know a lot of dogs are allergic to it, and that also seemed to help quite a bit as well (also noticed her seizures have lessened, though not sure if that's related). Even though her scratching lessened significantly, I've also been giving her a little organic coconut oil in her food off and on for about two to three times a week (about a tablespoon), just to help with her coat and to fight against worms.What I really love about this product, aside from it helping with her scratching, is that there's no strong perfume smell and the ingredients are great, too. I avoid chemicals in a lot of my skincare, so I feel good about putting an all-natural product on her. I don't ever notice any residue on her coat, but it still manages to leave it clean and shiny. You don't need a lot and it rinses easily, which is also great.She's always extremely perky after I'm done bathing her now, like tonight. Kind of funny actually. I also like to use the Conair shampoo dog brush to help loosen any dirt and shedding fur (she sheds/blows her coat twice a year in clumps, rather than consistently), as well as for a little massage, and she loves it. Highly recommend.**Update**Still loving this brand, although I decided to give the oatmeal version a try, even though I really wanted to try the mango scent (for my sake!). Our weather has been pretty dry, with hardly any humidity in the air, and my dog's skin was getting flaky and itchy (as was mine). The tea tree didn't work as well for this a few weeks ago, and my guess is that it's better for more fungal-type issues or dermatitis, etc. Before, the weather wasn't dry, she had some other issue going on, which tea tree helped with.I decided to give the oatmeal type a shot and loved the smell. It definitely conditioned her coat more - though the tea tree made it just as clean and shiny, if not a little more clean/clarified. Since I shampoo twice in a row, for good measure, I'll probably use both for now; otherwise, I think I prefer the oatmeal. The tea tree didn't smell bad, IMO, but smelled more herbal (very mild). My "partner" didn't care too much for it, but he said she smelled good when I used the oatmeal, even while she was still wet. Again, very mild smell that fades by the next day.Would say to get the oatmeal if you see flakes/dandruff/dryness, or the tea tree if there's scratching but no apparent dry skin involved. I'm sure either type will work great, though.

Fantastic product, my two senior Shih-Tzu's dogs don't itch with the earth bath oatmeal & aloe pet shampoo. I like the fact that one does not need much because it lathers-up nicely and smells great too plus leaves the dogs coat hair with a nice soft and shiny feel. I also like the fact the bottle lid was tape with an easy to peel tape to ensure it would not spill I wish they sold the big bottle of “conditioner” I would have bought it as well ended-up going through a local pet store and buy 2- small bottle size which ended-up costing more it would have been nicer to buy the bigger size conditioner from one place as well. Bottom-line, I would buy from this vendor again the delivery was fast as well. Thank you

This is a nice shampoo that does not dry my dogs skin out. It has a good consistency and is is easy to apply while still being a good thickness. It lasts awhile and is good value for the money. The smell doesn’t last too long after but that’s okay since it doesn’t dry his skin out.

not only is this good for my dogs skin and hair but its not a strong overwhelming scented shampoo

Highly recommend this dog shampoo. We have a stray that was outside for several weeks keeping cool in a local pond. After several dry baths and one with another dog shampoo, she still STUNK! We used this and really scrubbed her skin. Not only does she smell good (all stink gone), but she’s shiny and no longer scratching/ biting herself. And, a little does go a long way. ❤️
