In a Nutshell

  • A waterless shampoo for dogs and puppies that doesn't require squeezing or rinsing
  • It forms a good solution to get rid of dirt and give a shine. Burts seems literally spray and clean
  • Many dogs love the smell and feel cleaner to touch. But it didnt make the product bearable to endure between deep cleanings

Quick Verdict

This waterless shampoo in a 12-oz bottle is generally loved for its ease of use and gentle cleansing effects such as a quick detangle without bathing. It leaves dogs smelling nice and clean to the touch, but some users have reported issues with the sprayer and scent.
