Pet shampoos are too-often loaded with artificial ingredients, colours and preservatives that leave many pet owners wondering why they would use products on their furry friends that they wouldn’t use on themselves! However, this easy DIY pet shampoo is completely natural and can help keep your pet’s coat soft, clean and smelling fresh!
What you’ll need:
– 1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar with “The Mother” (for a natural flea repellent and to remove dirt)
– 5 tablespoons mild baby shampoo
– Heaped tablespoon of extra virgin cold-pressed coconut oil (for a soft and shiny coat)
– Warm water (Optional: you can infuse it with a rosemary stem when heating the water over the stove. Rosemary has moisturising properties great for relieving dandruff)
– A few drops of lavender essential oil (for a sweet smelling pup!)
– Glass jar or empty shampoo bottle
