Eco-friendly
Dog Shampoo
Commercial pet shampoos, both cat shampoos and dog shampoos, contain
a startling amount of chemicals and non-natural ingredients; some include
artificial scents and colors, and even sodium lauryl sulfate! Why not
mix a shampoo that is gentle and natural. Ingredients for a Natural
Homemade Dog Shampoo: a cup of all natural organic liquid soap; a cup
of pure organic apple cider vinegar (the best way to treat ringworm,
fleas, ticks and helps rid the coat of any and all skin conditions);
a third of a cup of glycerin; and a quart of water. Mix these four ingredients
together, pour into a bottle. You now have your own all-natural dog
shampoo. Give your bottle a good shake before use to mix the glycerin
thoroughly. Design a creative label for the bottle; attach a tag that
lists the ingredients and method of use. Sell to pet stores, supermarkets,
pharmacies, veterinary clinics or by mail order.
