I really like the Barkin & Meowson range, it just appears to suit my dog, his skin and coat.My dog is black and white, but it is the white part that I need to keep clean, in between regular dog grooming.With being a smaller sized dog, his little legs are nearer the ground, and all of this wet weather causes havoc to his white fur. Incidentally, all four legs are white which is typical. Harder to keep clean.I ordered the Barkin & Meowson Brightening Shampoo for Light Coat. I very much like that their products are Vet recommended. I also really like that they are sulphate and paraben free.The ingredients include Argan Oil and Silk Protein.I have a little device that I pop shampoo inside, to target dirty areas after a dog walk.I have found that the shampoo lathers up well, and is easily rinsed off. My dog has very soft fur naturally, but I believe that the shampoo is a helpful aid, in maintaining my dogs health.
Presentation. The Barkin & Meowson Brightening Dog Shampoo was supplied in a plastic sealed wrapper and usefully has a pump cap.First Impressions. Pumping a small amount first to see what it was like, the shampoo is nice smelling – I think a fruit and vanilla combination. It is almost clear in terms of colour and is not too thick or runny so the texture is good and it spreads quite evenly without being sticky on the hands probably down to the Argan oils and silk in the product. The bottle is nicely made and feels solid enough but would allow you to squeeze if the cap failed to pump or to get the last drops of shampoo out when the pump could not do so, the branding looks nice too! Day To Day Use. We have two cocker spaniels, one is a brindle and the other a very light and shiny gold and it is the latter that we wanted this for as we have a decent shampoo for the darker coated dog – though I would like to try Barkin & Meowson’s darker coat shampoo too! The shampoo went on well, provided a good lather which I felt was just right, not too much soap which can be an issue to rinse away. It has decent dirt removal properties and left the coat feeling soft and smelling nice, looking shiny and whilst I didn’t notice any lightening it was a clean and pampered dog at the end of the bath time operation.Summing UpI do like this shampoo, it looks quite expensive and works very well with the dogs coat, not harsh but well cleaned and smelling the part and it does not need a lot of shampoo to bathe the dog. Think we will try the dark one too as it certainly works for this lighter coloured dog. Not the cheapest but good quality dog shampoo.
As Mum to two beautiful dogs, I always try to source the best products for their health and appearance.I have had products from this Company previously and found them to be excellent. This particular product is the Brightening Shampoo. It has added argan oil and wheat germ oil, which is something I look for to keep my dog’s glossy coat in tip top condition. Also worth noting is that this shampoo is pH balanced as well as being paraben and sulphate free.It arrives in a 350 mls pump dispenser, which unusually is easy to operate unlike some of those liquid soaps you can buy! When is dispensed it has a clear gel like appearance. The fragrance is very pleasant, and I am someone who reacts badly to certain fragrances. I’m not particularly good at describing what things smell like, but I could detect vanilla, and something slightly fruity. The dogs came for a sniff before I used it, and they seemed to approve.You use it just like a normal shampoo, and I found that it lathered very well, and created soft bubbles on the coat. With the gel being fairly thick, only a small amount is required to achieve good results, making it cost effective.Once dry, my dog’s coat looked and smelled amazing. It was soft and shiny, and the fragrance has lasted a couple of days.In conclusion, I am very happy with this product, and although I got this bottle free of charge, I would certainly buy this product again.
As the owner of 2 dogs who like to get muddier than the puddles that they play in, I wanted to try a shampoo that was specific to each of their coats. Our spaniel has a mid length coat with gold and white.This brightening shampoo is designed for light coated dogs and is noted to have silk protein and argan oil. It's a smart looking pump dispenser bottle so it's easy to use when trying to hold a shower head and keep a dog still 😂I noticed a soft smell of vanilla when using it. It wasn't overpowering just nice enough to notice that and not a chemical shampoo perfume scent. The shampoo itself is clear in colour and a nice consistency - not so runny that it falls off your hand in the transfer from bottle to the dog and not to thick that you have to work from a single point on their coat.8 pumps lathered up nicely and felt nice going onto the dogs coat. It felt like applying a conditioner at some points. Rinsing was just as easy which I loved. There's nothing worse than a shampoo that takes forever to rinse out especially when your dog has had enough.The quality of this dog shampoo is good, I can say that when his coat was dry it did have a beautiful sheen to it. I suppose it boosted the colour too as it looked brighter than before although this could be down to having had the dirt washed off of him 😂. If you were to compare the effects like you do a human shampoo, you would think a nice gloss mask had been used.I've used the shampoo twice now on the pooch and both times have shown great results, no signs of dryness or irritation either and a soft coat very evident.With the amount of product needed each time, the size of the bottle and the result, this shampoo is great value for money and is going to last us a while. Unless he decides to roll in the sodden mud pit that is the goal area of the parks football pitch - again.
Wow what an amazing smell best smelling shampoo I have ever had my pooch smelt like he had been to the groomers after a lovely wash and blow dry using this shampoo,it's a great consistency and lathers really well I only need a small amount as he is just a little lad and rinses off pretty good as well no residues left over.He was so soft and shiny and smelt gorgeousFor just shy of £16 definitely worth it cheaper than a trip to the groomers and can get several washes
