Questions & Answers

12 Customer Questions

How about often can you use

Answer by Chewy • Nov 18, 2018
This product is safe for weekly use, however it is recommended to wash your dog on a monthly basis to prevent their skin from becoming dry.

Am I able to use this conditioner with a different shampoo but it's the same brand?

Answer by Chewy • Jun 13, 2018
This conditioner may be used with other shampoos.

What does this smell like?

Answer by Chewy • May 23, 2023
The fragrance used for this item is Pink Grapefruit.

If my dog has a red spot, wil the spray burn him if I spray him with it?

Answer by Chewy • Jan 15, 2022
This product is a conditioner that needs to be rinsed off; it is not a spray. Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Hot Spot & Itch Relief line provides Hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid to control itching and inflammation while Lidocaine, an over-the-counter analgesic, reduces pain.

So gentle!

Wow. This is our first time trying this due to some irritation we noticed on our pup’s paws, and couldn’t tell if it was from allergies or something else. This conditioner was amazing, and their redness on their paws/legs are gone. This made our pup’s coat so soft! We’ve always only used shampoo, and now won’t go back to not using a conditioner as well. Highly recommend this brand. Our GSD pup does have sensitive skin, and this didn’t bother him whatsoever.

My labrador suffers from seasonal allergies and can become itchy quickly after certain hikes. This conditioner was both hydrating for her coat and fast acting in alleviating the itchiness in her tails and behind. The smell is also nice, not too strong, and maintains for a few days.

Smells nice

Smells good and easy to use. I’m not entirely sure this product is what’s getting her hair to grow back or using a different flea treatment.

Stella is not licking, and hopefully the spray continues to what it does.

My 8-year-old Australian shepherd Christian Gabriel head a couple of spots on his back feet, which were inflamed, and that he had licked almost down to no Fur. Andronize. My veterinarian prescribed some kind of topical ointment, which did not work at all. I called chewy and ask what they thought would be the right thing to try to use to alieve christians, apparent discomfort. Within a few days, christian is feeling so much better and I continue to use it whenever he has any kind of little itchy scratchy spot

Smells good, works great, and is great quality!! I switched my dogs food up a couple months ago and he broke out in hotspots like crazy. I obviously switched his food back immediately and came to chewy looking for something to help with relief. I got this and the shampoo after getting the hotspot spray and being so impressed with it! I've only used it 3 times but I can already see a difference! Love these products, very glad I bought them!
