Bath time fun: "We use Espree shampoos, that are holistic, natural, cruelty free, and 100% biodegradable. The first ingredient in all our shampoo is aloe-vera to ensure a soft gentle clean. We finish each bath with a Chris Christensen conditioner, to leave the coat smelling fresh with a soft touch. After the bath is complete we spray on The Stuff, this is a show quality product that repels dirt and enhances our drying techniques."
Deshedding: "Featuring Furminator Shampoo and conditioner. We let your dog exfoliate in this product that helps loosen up all that dead undercoat."
