How to wash your dog without a bath

How to wash your dog without a bath

In an ideal world, our dogs would avoid the muddy puddles on their walks, but we know, life happens. So, when it comes to getting your dog nice and clean, the struggle can sometimes be VERY REAL. If your dog hates the bath, dog grooming wipes can be a great alternative.

Dog grooming wipes are a convenient and effective solution for keeping your pet fresh between baths. Designed to gently clean dirt and grime from your dog's paws, bum, coat, and even those hard-to-reach spots, these wipes make it easy to tackle everyday messes. Whether it's a muddy walk or a quick clean-up before company arrives, grooming wipes are perfect for those in-between moments when a full bath just isn’t necessary. 

Here are 5 things you should prioritize when finding the best wipes to get the job done!

 

1) Durability: because nothing is worse than having to use a whole pack of wipes on a single paw, make sure the wipes are thick & durable.

 

2) Safety: wipes that are gentle enough for daily-use can be a lifesaver for daily messes. Prioritize wipes that are hypoallergenic and dermatologist-tested to avoid any irritation.

 

3) Ingredients: our dogs deserve only the best. Opt for wipes that use soothing ingredients like shea butter, aloe vera and chamomile.

 

4) Long-lasting: ever heard of caprylhydroxamic acid? It's an ingredient you'll want to look out for when shopping for wipes. It's a gentle preservative that ensures longevity: strong enough to kill bacteria while not impacting the efficacy of other ingredients.

 

5) Certifications: check the packaging for certifications so you know exactly what you're getting. A few to look out for?

  • USDA Certified 99% Biobased ✅
  • Certified B Corp ✅
  •  Leaping Bunny Cruelty-Free certified
