Highlighted Reviews

— Mike

"Used to use another dog skin lotion and they worked great but Chewy longer sells them so they suggested this and it turns out to be great."

— Kristina

"I have 3 dogs and I put this on all 3 of them because they have dry skin and it made their skin itch and become extremely red."

Bottom Line

Effective for skin issues, with potential staining on white dogs. Use with caution and possibly follow up with a rinsing process.
