— Barbara

"This is the first time I have been dissatisfied with one of Burt’s Bees products, First, it did not lather and we practically used half the bottle. Second, as far as deodorizing goes, the dog now smells like worms on a wet pavement"

Bottom Line

Given the overwhelmingly negative feedback, it may be best to consider alternative deodorizing shampoos for dogs. The product seems to have significant quality issues and does not meet the expectations set by its description.
