Cleansing Shampoo

Dogs and cats with normal skin and coat without any medical conditions are the easiest to find an appropriate shampoo. These products are termed as ‘shampoo and conditioner’ in any pet store that washes out any dirt on their skin and improves your pet’s odor. The price ranges from low-cost to expensive grooming pet care shampoos.

Medicated Shampoo

Dogs or cats with dry and itchy skin need specially-designed grooming products that improve their medical conditions.
