Highlighted Reviews

β€” Audrey 1 found helpful

"My vet recommended this to all of my dogs and they don’t scratch as much, their coat looks healthier, and i love the essential oil smell when you apply it (doesn’t last too long) and they don’t mind it either. Highly recommend!"

β€” Angela

"I can’t say these are helpful as they cause a reaction to my sensitive dog right away. Still trying to find someone to donate them too. They didn’t work for us. "

Bottom Line

This product may be worth trying for dogs with specific skin issues if recommended by a vet, but be prepared for potential allergic reactions and vary in results.
