Which DotDotPet Shampoo Is Right for My Dog?

Choosing the right shampoo for your dog isn’t about finding the strongest formula — it’s about choosing the one that best suits your dog’s coat, skin, and at-home bath time routine.

DotDotPet shampoos are designed to be gentle enough for regular use and sensitive skin, while still being effective and practical. They’re prebiotic, deodorising, and use a non-irritating fragrance developed alongside professionals to help keep dogs calmer during bath time. Each shampoo also comes in an easy-application, no-mess bottle, making washing at home simpler and less stressful.

The difference between the shampoos comes down to coat type and grooming needs. This guide explains when to choose each DotDotPet shampoo, so you can pick the right one with confidence.
