Description

Dogs get dirty, their skin gets irritated, and dealing with an occasionally itchy pup is tough. This Veterinary Formula Clinical Care medicated dog shampoo helps you manage the mess. We use coal tar, salicylic acid, and micronized sulfur to support dry, flaky skin caused by environmental stressors or seasonal allergies. Because this formula prioritizes active ingredients over heavy perfumes, it has a strong, medicinal scent. That distinctive smell means it is actually working against odor-causing buildup. We also include colloidal oatmeal and allantoin to hydrate the coat naturally. Since human products are too acidic, our pH-balanced wash supports your pet safely without relying on harsh soaps or dyes. Application is straightforward. Always spot test a small area first to ensure your pup handles the ingredients well. Lather the shampoo in, let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes, and rinse. You might notice some extra shedding or flaking after the first few washes. This is normal as the dead cells shed off, so just follow up with a thorough brushing. Use it two to three times a week initially, then scale back. Please consult your vet if issues persist, and remember this formula is strictly for dogs—do not use it on cats. We know that your dogs are more than just pets - they are part of the family - so Veterinary Formula Clinical Care formulates premium products that pet parents can actually afford. Your dog will feel soothing results making you both happy and able to focus on more important things like walks, fetch, and snuggles. It’s important to determine the cause of the underlying issue, so please consult your veterinarian if skin issues become a persistent problem. Due to the coal tar content of this shampoo, we do not recommend its use on cats.

  • I would give this stuff a thousand stars!! I would give this stuff a thousand stars!!
Style: Shampoo Gallon
(From the mrs.) I have a walkerhound, about 60 to 65lbs. And for the past 2 months, he has been biting the tip of his tail, neat his but. So much that there was blood over it. I always just thought it was anxiety stress from the other dogs, etc...never the less, he's still biting...all day, everyday, 24/7 day!! I felt so bad for him. The closest vet near us, wasn't taking any new dogs till, sept!! I was desperate. And I was very skeptical, I read every single, good, and bad reviews. I did my homework. I was expecting it to be kinda like our shampoo, kinda water based. But it was thick like our conditioner. It wasn't a disgusting smell, just a different, pungent smell. Like when you stub your toe, lol. I'm a rebel, I didn't use gloves & my hands DID NOT fall off!!! I was also worried if it would sting the area where he's been biting raw & the fur has been coming off. It did not! Whew!! He had the roughest fur. Can't tell you how many times I've gotten jabbed in the fingernail by his fur! Now, it's, so soft! And his coat is actually shiny! In other words....EXCELLENT STUFF, BUY IT! YOULL BE GLAD YOU DID!! Have a great day!! ... show more

  • Expensive but worth it.
Style: Shampoo Gallon
Got this for my dog because they smelt like Fritos. I was told it was yeast. The product eliminated the yeast and made the skin clear up. Very expensive but worth every penny

  • Second time I've purchased this product - HIGHLY recommended for dogs with skin problems.
Style: Shampoo Gallon
I adopted a lab that has repeatedly suffered with skin rashes and infections. He chews his hair off when it is shedding time and ends up with either yeast or staff infections on raw skin. This shampoo is magic. The vet was not a lot of help - selling me very expensive creams and sometimes pills to treat infections or "allergies". When I bathe him weekly with this shampoo, he no longer scratches or chews on his skin. It works like magic and is the only durable solution I've found. It smells a little medicinal, but leaves my pup with a 'clean dog' odor that I like. ... show more

  • Just switched to this & like it so far
Style: Shampoo Gallon
Just switched to this because the shampoo I was getting my dog was so expensive and wasn’t as big as this container. It is scent free but not a huge fan of the smell, that’s why I gave 4 stars however my dog does not like very scented shampoos. Great for the price, and does a great job cleaning. Do wish there was a pump with it. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Best thing I've ever bought. Best thing I've ever bought.
Style: Shampoo Gallon
Amazing product, I'm not sure what my dog had. Fleas or mange, my friend thinks he got it somehow, and I had really strong flea spary so I assumed it wasn't that. I bought this and applied it to my dog, left it on h for 15 minutes, of course I had to scrub it until it got foamy. The first pic is of him when I decided to buy it. The second pic is after the first use. The third picture is of the second use. I applied it every 3 days and it came off. I really recommend anyone to buy this product it's amazing of course remember to discontinue use after your dog gets better as it says on the bottle, and do not put it in their eyes either. I recommend getting the gallon, get more for your money and it's worth it. If your dog has mange or fleas and bites a lot use it, the shampoo is so strong the smell of it stays on for days, and it's smells good too. 10/10 would HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ... show more

  • Great Shampoo
Style: Shampoo Gallon
I bought this for my Jack Russell Terrier that had a bacterial skin infection and caused some hair loss. The fist bath I slathered it on, it's a good thick shampoo, and lathered it up really good, I let it sit for about 5 minutes then rinsed and reapplied it thickly again leaving it lathered up on him for about 10 minutes. Rinsed and was done. Right away I saw how much better he felt, not scratching at all, running around and he slept soundly. 2 days later I washed him again the same way. I gave him 2 baths a week for 2 weeks and this shampoo has worked wonders, he gets one bath a week now with it and you can see a great change in his hair and skin, he's happier and more playful. Great Product ... show more
