Synergy Labs Dog Wash Flea & Tick Shampoo[Volume - 354ml]

Fleas:

Dogs and other warm-blooded animals are highly susceptible to fleas, especially in warm climates or during summer when temperatures and humidity levels rise. Dogs can pick up fleas from other pets or their surroundings. Fleas jump onto the "host" (your dog) using their powerful back legs and then bite. These bites can lead to itching, hair loss, and hot spots from scratching, as well as inflamed lesions and potential skin infections. You might also notice tiny, dirt-like specks on your pet, which are actually flea feces and digested blood.

Female fleas can live on your pet for several weeks, laying between 20-30 eggs daily during that time. Some of these eggs hatch into larvae on your pet, while others drop off into your home, feeding on skin flakes and other organic matter. Pet owners must treat both their dog and the indoor and outdoor environments. We suggest using Dog Wash™ Flea & Tick Shampoo alongside our Richard’s Organics Premise Treatment for Fleas, formulated with 100% natural Boric Acid.

Ticks:

Ticks are parasitic arthropods that attach to warm hosts, including your dog, and feed on their blood. They are commonly found in wooded areas, tall grass, and shrubs. Dogs that spend a lot of time outdoors are at increased risk of encountering ticks. Once a tick attaches to your dog, it can secure itself in a fold or crevice and may feed for days. Ticks pose a significant health risk as they can transmit diseases such as Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and Babesiosis. A tick bite can also lead to anemia, joint swelling, fever, and paralysis. If your pet shows any signs of illness after a tick bite, consult your veterinarian right away. Always check your pet for ticks after outdoor activities, particularly in wooded areas.

Tips for Bathing Your Pet at Home Like the Pros:

• Before the bath, build trust by allowing your pet to see and sniff grooming tools, brushes, towels, and the shampoo bottle, and let them hear the sound of running water.
• Reward your pet with affection and treats for calm behavior to create a positive association with bath time.
• If your pet seems anxious, consider using an all-natural calming remedy like Richard’s Organics Pet Calm, which takes about 10-15 minutes to be effective.
• Before bathing, brush your pet’s coat to remove tangles and mats. If their fur is severely matted, carefully cut it out. Also, check for ticks, fleas, burrs, hot spots, or any other issues.
• Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting wet and dirty.
• Close the bathroom door to prevent your pet from escaping while wet and soapy!
• If possible, use a spray nozzle for easier rinsing.
• Utilize Dog Wash™ specially formulated and pH balanced products for pets, and don't forget the conditioner! It’s crucial for restoring and maintaining moisture and shine in your pet’s coat.
• Gently dry your pet with a towel or a low-heat professional pet dryer.
• Enjoy, play, and cuddle with your freshly cleaned and joyful pet!
