Some shampoos have a lower pH which can disrupt the natural defenses of the animal’s skin acid mantle. All FoamCare Shampoo is specifically formulated for an optimized pH for pet’s skin and do not disrupt the natural acid mantle.
What are the benefits to the foaming application?
The foaming application provides a deeper clean that nourishes your pet’s skin. The foam is easy to lather into your pet’s coat and clean the skin.
Can I dump the shampoo into a bucket and wash my pet that way?
FoamCare shampoo is best used as sprayed through its trigger system for correct foaming action. We do not recommend decanting the shampoo into other containers. The shampoo is designed to be sprayed through the trigger for optimal coverage and easy application.
