This seems to be a good quality shampoo. It lathers nicely and is easy to rinse. Other reviews state that it has a green apple scent, but I can't smell anything. Don't let the lack of scent fool you though, my dogs still smell nice after use, although I do use a dryer on them, which also seems to cut down on the wet dog smell. I always use the episoothe cream rinse with it. The 2 products combined leave their coats super soft, and with a slight shine. The best part is no skin irritation for my dogs, my male in particular seems to have sensitive skin, but so far no issues from this product.

The Best for Sensitive Skin
My dog of 8-years came to us with missing blotches of hair supposedly from shelter stress. This brand was recommended and we have never turned back from it. Her issue cleared up and the Epi-Soothe line keeps her rash-free, looking shiny & smells great, not too over bearing, love this!

Dandruff and dry skin
My chihuahua had really bad dandruff, dry skin, and dull fur. Changes in diet did nothing. We finally tried this shampoo with their cream rinse and it completely got rid of his issues in a few days, along with brushing. I’m so happy with this product line and I’ll definitely be using it consistently with my dog. Now he’s so happy and soft!

Get It NOW
If you haven’t already ordered this, put it in your cart now because after this review - you’re going to want it ASAP. We tried literally every brand you could think of for our Pug and English Bulldog (RIP) to try and stop their shedding and itching and nothing worked…unless we found this brand. Within 1-2 weeks, their shedding decreased TREMENDOUSLY, they stopped scratching, AND it smells good (I also put pup cologne after but still). This, plus a change in their diet, God send!

Good for sensitive skin
I’ve only used this once, but it suds up good. Rinses easily. My dog didn’t scratch afterwards, as he does with other shampoos.

Soother and smoother
Love this stuff for our pitty's apres-bath. We apply it directly to her washed coat and massage it in. It soothes her dryish skin and leaves her coat shiny and soft.
