When it comes to animal welfare, one of the many aspects to consider is also cleansing during grooming. Since it is a process designed to deep clean the coat and treat any issues, it is essential to have specific accuracies for each type of coat.
Thinking that they are all the same is, in fact, one of the reasons why more and more dogs, cats and equines are being found to be itchy, infected and parasitic. Just like humans, our four-legged friends need specific products to preserve their pH and alleviate any redness.
We at Lory Veterinary Projects care about their health, which is why we make detergents without parabens, salt and SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), ideal for adults and puppies with short and long hair of all colors.
We provide our clients with several lines of shampoos, oils, and masks formulated with substances with different properties designed to meet the needs of all skin types. Below we describe in more detail the grooming products with detangling, purifying and soothing action.
Detangling cleansers for grooming against frizzy hairs
When dealing with a hair full of knots, it is necessary to have extra caution compared to others, precisely to prevent the occurrence of certain annoyances. It is often necessary to remove them with combs and scissors, but with patience and perseverance it is possible to counteract their appearance with special grooming detergents.
First you need to assess whether the type of frizzy conformation of the coat is specific to the animal’s breed. If so, it could be made softer and silkier by using the lightweight moisturizing mousse from the Energy line without risking overstressing the skin.
If, on the other hand, the animal is difficult to comb only sometimes, then it is necessary to apply specific products with detangling action. In this case, we recommend relying on oils or masks with a pleasant texture on the hair and targeted action. In particular, pet mask and cotton flower mask are a good remedy for even the most tangled hair due to their emollient and elasticizing properties.
Among the best cleansers against knot formation are the biphasic detangler andSmooth oil, which manage to make the coat smooth without weighing it down. They are both to be distributed evenly over the entire length of the coat taking care to avoid eyes and mucous membranes.
Grooming with purifying cleansers for delicate skin
Animals also have delicate skin like ours, which is why it can be attacked by parasites, bacteria and fungi that can alter its functionality. In these cases, it is still possible to clean the coat of dogs, cats and horses, we just need to choose the most correct and least invasive products.
Among the purifying cleansers we suggest in case of excessive secretion are the Therapy prewash lotion and the coconut shampoo from the Energy line. The former, as the name implies, is to be used before grooming to promote deep sanitization of the skin. The second, on the other hand, thanks to the balsamic action of sage essential oil, helps to purify and treat dermatitis or infections.
If bacterial growth is consistent, we recommend applying products from the Silvery line with colloidal silver, a substance specifically designed to fight all types of microorganisms. Its properties can cure many infections and make the skin more hydrated from the very first wash.
Alternatively, Lily of the valley shampoo enriched with Tea Tree essential oil has very powerful antifungal actions. Its soothing and antiseptic characteristics make this product ideal for mild skin infections. In fact, it can even be used as an antibiotic directly on wounds.
Grooming cleansers suitable for sensitive skin
Some animals have very sensitive skin, which is why it must be treated with dermatologically tested cleansers that prevent eczema and redness and soothe itchiness and dryness.
Especially puppies and older ones should be cleaned with specific grooming products, using, for example, ultra-delicate Fiordilatte shampoo, which is indicated to avoid dermatological problems due to its moisturizing and protective actions.
Other hypoallergenic shampoos include the Currant Revitalizer from the Energy line, ideal for cases where inflammatory components are present, and the Therapy shampoo, against itchy and reddened skin.
If your pet’s coat is white, you should use our specific cleanser, rich in vitamins and emollient substances, such asArgan oil, formulated to protect this type of coat. For complete grooming, we recommend Beauty Clean perfume, with fresh and delicate essences, also suitable for those with sensitive and easily irritated skin.
In the case of oily skin, on the other hand, it is necessary to pre-treat the animal with a cleanser that facilitates deep cleansing. Oil not Oil Prewash in combination with pomegranate shampoo will again relieve your four-legged friends and, at the same time, remove excess sebum.
