Ditch Plastic, Go Naked

Plastic shampoo bottles are a big planet polluter, and the ingredients in normal shampoo is usually terrible for our doggies and the environment. And, to top it all off, most brands of shampoo contain animal products or were tested on them. Not cool!

Enter Plastic Free Doggy Shampoo Bars

This natural and delicate handmade dog shampoo bar by Zero Waste Path Shop smells incredible (so good I’ve even considered using it on myself!).

It contains Neem oil for its soothing and anti-flea properties, and the lavender and lemongrass essential oils also add anti-itch and anti-bacterial properties!

Bianca from Zero Waste Path Shop suggests using an acid rinse after the use of this shampoo bar to eliminate any residue and leave the coat soft and shiny (recipe here)

Please avoid using this shampoo bar on puppies or pregnant dogs

Instructions:

Wet the bar, like a normal soap bar, and either lather in your hands and then put the lather on your dogs hair, or rub the bar directly onto their fur to lather it up. To make sure this bar lasts you, store correctly in between uses. If you leave it in a tin wet, it will stay wet and start melting away/going congealed (as does soap bars). I would recommend letting it dry out on a soap pouch, and then storing it in a tin until next time your doggy needs a bath.
