The Absolute Best Dog Shampoo And Conditioner!

About 3 months ago, our family welcomed our much dreamed of bloodhound puppy Duke, and brought him home when he was just 8 1/2 weeks old. Since we had been planning on Duke for many months, I had plenty of time to research countless dog shampoos, conditioners, etc, when I finally discovered this sha...mpoo online while getting some goodies for myself. I had no idea Kiehl's made products for pets up until that point, and was so impressed with the reviews both here and on other sites, that I decided to order both the shampoo and conditioner for our pup. I honestly can't recommend these products enough, they are by far and away the most wonderful dog shampoo and conditioner that I have ever used on my dogs in the 20+ years I've had furry family members. First, the delicious smell! The mix of lavender and chamomile is just perfect, not too strong or overpowering, it smells fresh and clean without that horrible strong smell of either chemicals or super powerful baby powder or "fresh" pungent fragrances so common in dog shampoos. Like I said, the smell is lovely, as though you are in an aromatherapy spa, it instantly relaxes you, and not only that, our Duke smells so nice and clean for days on end, and he is a very active puppy. Now, for the performance: As a bloodhound, Duke has loads of wrinkles and folds, so he gets quite filthy, and the shampoo makes a nice lather, cleans his coat completely, rinses very clean with no residue, and leaves his coat as baby soft as the day we got him. I then follow with a bit of the conditioner, which has the same lovely scent, and provides great hydration to not only his coat, but the folds on his neck, the tips of those long ears, and where he sometimes gets a little irritated such as on the soft skin on his inner thighs and armpits. The result is just awesome: A completely clean, delicious smelling pup, with a beautiful shiny, healthy and soft coat!The only issue I have is that most stores don't carry these items, and/or they are frequently out of stock, and that I wish they came in much larger sizes. Even though a little goes a long way, when your dog loves the dirt and mud as much as Duke, we just go through the bottle in the blink of an eye, lol! Other than that, it's perfection! Just bought the in between baths spray, so can't wait to see how it works out. Sorry so long, I guess I'm just a little excited to have finally found the perfect dog shampoo!
