Buddycare Black Cherry Dog Shampoo – 500ml

Buddycare Black Cherry Dog Shampoo – 500ml

Black Cherry is the shampoo people buy again for the smell. It is a deep, ripe cherry fragrance that stays in the coat for days rather than hours, and it is the single most recognisable scent in the Buddycare range.

Underneath the fragrance it is a straightforward cleanser: olefin sulfonate and cocamidopropyl betaine do the washing, aloe vera leaf juice and panthenol soften the finish, and citric acid holds the pH where a dog's skin wants it. Buddycare state plainly that it is not recommended for cats.

Performance & Benefits

• Rich black cherry fragrance that holds in the coat between washes.
• Cleans dirt, grease and odour without stripping the coat's own oils.
• Aloe barbadensis leaf juice and panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) condition as it washes.
• Free from SLS, SLES, sulphates and parabens; vegan and cruelty free.
• pH balanced for dogs and safe from eight weeks of age.
• 500ml bottle, with 1L and 5L also made for professional use.

Suitable For

• Dogs of all breeds and coat types.
• Owners who want the scent to still be there two or three days later.
• Puppies from eight weeks old.
• Routine bathing rather than treatment of a skin condition.
• Not for cats — Buddycare do not recommend it for them, as feline skin pH differs and cats groom everything off the coat.

How to Use

• Wet the coat thoroughly with warm water.
• Lather through, working from the shoulders back and avoiding the face.
• Rinse until the water runs clear, then towel or blow dry.
• Rinse the eyes with water on any accidental contact.
• A 20:1 dilution ratio is Buddycare's figure for diluting the concentrate in a salon.
• Keep out of reach of children.
