Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I winter in North Carolina from Michigan. My peek-a-poo dog dug up a huge mound of fire ants just after we arrived, thinking it was just a good soft place to dig. They were everywhere on her and she got about 15-20 bites on her tummy and hind quarters. She itched so badly she lost most of her fur, and she is one fuzzy dog. I didn't know how to best help her.
I had received the Animal Scents shampoo just before I had left and decided it was worth a try for she needed a bath anyway. What a difference! Soon as she dried thoroughly she had stopped itching. She acted so relieved. Her fur stopped falling out and she smelled so good on top of it all.
In a week or so I could see new growth of healthy hair and she was a happy dog again.
Now that is the only shampoo I use on her. All the others, no matter how fancy a brand, make her itch after she dries and Animal Scents shampoo does not.
The clean scent lasts about 2 weeks on her too which makes me a happy dog owner.
