| Aloe Vera Pet Shampoo 2 cups water 2 teaspoons liquid castile soap 2 tablespoons aloe vera gel Up to 1 teaspoon vegetable glycerin or vegetable oil Combine all ingredients in a jar. Shake to blend. Get the pet’s coat wet, pour on the shampoo a few tablespoons at a time, lathering as you go. Work the shampoo in with your hands. Rinse thoroughly. And then towel dry your dog, after they've shook a couple times in the tub. A final vinegar rinse can help the coat shine, and return the acid mantle to the skin. Combine 1/4 cup of organic apple cider vinegar with 3 cups of warm water, and rinse over the pet’s coat; be sure to avoid the eyes. Note: We would suggest not using this recipe on cats, as it contains aloe vera, which is very toxic to cats. This recipe is from Care2 check their site out for more natural pet recipes and tips. |
