Burts Bees for Pets Itch Soothing Dog Shampoo, Honeysuckle, 16 Fl Oz

I already trust Burt’s Bees for my own life (mainly my perpetually chapped lips, let’s be honest), so when I saw they made a dog shampoo, I had one of those “well obviously I have to try it” moments. My dogs didn’t exactly vote on it, but they got bathed anyway. I picked this up mainly because I wanted something gentle. Dogs and human skin are not the same thing, and I’ve learned the hard way that using random products “because it smells nice” is not a great strategy for pet care. So I wanted something that was made specifically with their skin in mind, especially since one of mine gets a little itchy from time to time. First thing I noticed is that it’s very mild. It doesn’t have that strong, artificial fragrance hit that a lot of pet shampoos go for. It’s more subtle and clean, which I actually prefer because I don’t want my dogs smelling like a perfume counter. The formula is low-lather, which surprised me at first because I’m used to thinking “more foam = more clean.” But it actually rinses out really easily, which makes bath time less of a wrestling match. And anything that shortens bath time automatically earns points in my house. What I like most is how their coats feel afterward. They come out softer and smoother without feeling stripped or dry. I’ve also noticed less scratching after baths, which is really the main reason I reached for this in the first place. It also feels reassuring knowing it’s made with a high natural-origin formula and skips the harsh stuff like sulfates and dyes. It just feels more intentional and gentle overall, which matters when it comes to something you’re using regularly on pets. If I had a small caveat, it’s that the low-lather texture takes a second to get used to if you’re expecting a traditional shampoo experience. But once you adjust, it actually makes sense for how gentle it is. At around $8, the value is really solid for a pet-specific, gentle formula from a brand I already trust. Overall, this turned out to be one of those simple swaps that made bath time feel a little easier and a lot more comfortable for my dogs.

Before using this, my dog was itching so badly he had bald spots and bleeding from biting himself. I used Burt’s Bees Itch Soothing Shampoo along with coconut oil and limiting scratching, and his skin is now almost completely healed. This shampoo has little to no scent, which I liked for soothing irritated skin. After the itching improved, I alternated with the Burt’s Bees Manuka Honey & Oatmeal Shampoo—it smells amazing and keeps his coat fresh. His coat is now shiny, fuller, thicker, healing fast, and he’s itching much less. Incredible value, high-quality ingredients, and no unnecessary additives. Highly recommend. 🐶🤍 Ideas to get started: • Take clear before photos of irritated areas • Use consistently 1–2x per week • Let the shampoo sit a few minutes before rinsing • Follow with a gentle moisturizer like coconut oil • Switch to the Manuka Honey shampoo once itching improves

The shampoo worked great in the fact that my dog was no longer itching. Unfortunately, because the shampoo is not thick at all, it took a lot of shampoo to give my male blue healer a bath. His hair is thick and the shampoo was very watery feeling and took a lot to suds up.

I love this product my dogs love it too not only does it make him smell good but it really does work I have a long hair dog and a short haired dog and it works great on both I think that it is very very great on your pocketbook it rinses out pretty decent although like any long-haired dog things usually take a minute to get out because you have to make sure that all the soap is out of that long hair but for short hair dog it's quick to get out it does work great on their hair and they do smell awesome the value that you spend on money is a great value you get out of it

We just added a dog to the family and immediately noticed that she was scratching and nibbling. So bad that it kept us up at night. When I found this on Amazon I decided to give it a try and I’m so glad I did. We put her in the tub and bathed her with this shampoo. As others have mentioned, we didn’t get a lot of suds, but we worked it into her very short hair. The difference in her behavior was like night and day. She was able to sleep peacefully and most of the scratching and nibbling stopped. There had been small scabs on her skin and the hair was gone in patches. The last time I checked the scabs were gone and the skin was smooth. I’m sure we will see the hair growing back soon. I have tried many other anti-itch shampoos in the past without good results but this is the real deal. Now for the spray. For some reason when I tried to review that it brought me back to the shampoo. The spray works great for instant relief, but only when I can catch the dog. She is terrified of the spray and won’t let me near her when she sees it in my hand. To remedy that, if I see her nibbling I soak a soft cloth with the spray and wipe her down. She lets me do that and the nibbling stops. I think both of them together will at leasts slow down the itch and make her more comfortable.

Was a bit disappointed that this shampoo really has no scent. That can be good or bad depending on your preference. I thought it would since it mentions honeysuckle. It does seem to be good quality and left my dogs fur clean and soft so I will keep it.

My American Pit Bull Mix had a heat rash and yeast itch. Our vet recommended a special shampoo for the itching and rash. After using it as directed, our pups itching was worse than before. We tried it again and and found it did not produce the desired results. After reading the reviews for Burt's Bees for Pets Itch Soothing Shampoo with Honeysuckle, I ordered a bottle to try. After the first application his itching was reduced by about 60%. A week later and a second treatment,, he was still scratching but about 80% less. It's true that you have to use a considerable amount each time but for our pup its worth it. His coat is clean and very smooth. I found that leaving the shampoo on for the required time is important . I also found the first time we used this shampoo, we apparently didn't rinse long enough to remove all the shampoo so his coat appeared oily. We ended up re-rinsing which made quite a difference. I would recommend this product as it has produced the results we were looking for.

My little teacup yorkie had a sudden start of itchy skin. I knew he did not have any fleas or bugs... I tried everything. He was unhappy and constant itching his back. I bought other oatmeal dog shampoos, no help. Bought several ointments, no help. He is very very sensitive to any kind of prescriptions, so medication was out of the question. I felt horrible since I could not help as he had hoped. I bought this shampoo, as I use Burts Bees products on myself, figured I could give it a try. It came fast delivery. I liked that it did not have much smell at all. I immediately gave him a bath with it. He stopped itching that night. I wanted to wait to see if it came back.... Well, it has been 3 days and he stopped, not an itch at all. I am so pleased. If you have a doubt, a poor itchy pet, just give it a try. Worked for my little pal.

Muy líquido... hay que ocupar mucho en cada baño

Lovely product left my dog with silky soft fur

Very nice shampoo for our dog. Packaged good, arrived before predicted time. Very pleased with this product.
