Earth Rated Dog Deodorizing Conditioner Spray, Conditioning & Odor-Eliminating Perfume for Dogs, for All Coat Types, Refreshing White Tea & Basil Scent, 8 oz

I just received this today and washed my German Shepherd who only gets occasional baths (he doesn’t need them often). The shampoo we use on our beagle doesn’t work as well for the GSD. This works well. It is super easy to apply with the elongated dispensing tip, and gets into the undercoat. It lathers well, and rinses clean. It does seem to condition also, as when he dried his coat was shiny and and smooth. Not greasy or any residue. I washed him in our garden tub with a hand held shower head if that helps to understand the technique I used. The scent wasn’t strong, which was nice - he doesn’t smell like perfume. I’m not sure I like the scent it does have, but it’s so mild unless you stick your nose in his fur it’s not too noticeable- and I have a fairly strong sniffer. All in all, I will buy this again. Even used it on thr beagle and it worked well on his fur and skin. He needs baths more often due to skin allergies - so it’s nice to have an option that is all in one so every bath isn’t a full production.

Caveat: this is a dog who is accustomed to regular grooming and is always cooperative about it.This shampoo (with no added conditioner or detangling product) gave us the easiest and best blowout ever. Her coat always has minor snarls after she gets wet, and they brushed out easily following her bath with this shampoo.The drying itself seemed faster than usual, and she was so soft and fluffy.The scent was pleasant, but not strong. (I always dilute shampoo before applying to minimize residue on the skin).It lathered nicely and I felt that her coat got very clean. She generally smelled like a pleasant version of herself, if that makes sense.She was more relaxed than usual for the brush/blowdry part, she lay on her side and let me work without fidgeting or “protecting” her most tangled regions.Value for money… (Amazon asked) If you’re willing to do the work, you are likely to be pleased enough with this product to justify the price. If you are just looking to scrub mud or stink off your dog and are ok letting with how their coat clumps naturally afterwards, you might be happy with what’s available at TJ Maxx, etc for a lower price. Since I always dilute shampoo (I fill an empty shampoo bottle most of the way with water, then add maybe 2 tablespoons of shampoo), this will cost approximately $1 per bath.This product will not do the work for you. This kind of coat must be brushed and blow dried to prevent matting.I would recommend this product (curly coat version) in between regular professional groomings. If your dog is matted now, he or she may need to be shaved before you can allow the coat to grow as long as this lady’s without tangling. She typically sees her groomer every 6 weeks and we do a bath and blowout once or twice in between, depending on whether it rains and/or if she’s had a chance to swim or get muddy.

I got my pup from the shelter. HE STANK! And I'm OCD he was still healing from internal stitched so couldn't wash with water for a week.Living in my rv full-time I was suffering, people!! On day three I used this product on him as directed. It smelled great but at first I didn't like the sticky feeling. Like a tacky stick residue on my hands and his coat. I used it as an option to brush and de-shed. It worked! ,When he dried his coat was soft, shiny and dog pound smell free!!As and rver and will cronic back pains this is a quick and efficient mean to clean and deodorize in between a water & soap bath.I will get more for sure!

I bought this to use on my faily curly Goldendoodle. The smell out of the bottle is a bit strong, but after bathing and washing it out, it leaves a nice rosewater scent. It washes out clean with minimal suds even though with lathing a good amount of suds. I left the product on an additional 4 minutes hoping the additional time would leave my dog's coat nice and tangled free since it is marketed as a 3 in 1 product. After towel drying, I found this wasn't the case and in the end wound up applying a Detangler Spray. It did leave my dog soft. I would buy this again, along with the additional Detangler Spay.
