Instructions for Standard Use:
Shake well before use. Apply direct or dilute with warm water up to 24:1. Apply shampoo liberally and massage into coat from behind ears to tail. Avoid contact with eyes and rinse thoroughly.

For Best Results:
After diluting shampoo, apply liberally to coat from behind ears to tail, focusing on areas where most buildup and excess oils accumulate. Let the shampoo sit for a few minutes to break down buildup from styling product residue and heavy conditioners (also works well to remove buildup of silicone products, chalks, waxes, etc.). Rinse well and follow with a second wash using any Specialty Shampoo from Nature’s Specialties to tackle your specific grooming need (i.e., a medicated shampoo to alleviate skin issues, a color enhancing shampoo to boost coat color, a texturizing shampoo for wire coats, etc.).
Follow with a hydrating conditioner like Aloe Re-Moisturizer or Sheamora.

*Be careful not to overuse clarifying shampoos, as they can strip the skin of the essential oils that keep both skin and coats healthy.
