Helps with scratching and itching
My vet recommended this shampoo for my golden retriever who was frequently scratching/itching himself. After 2-3 months of usage I noticed the scratching has stopped. This product does not contain any flavorful sweet scent but has a fresh smell. Lathers well and leaves the hair silky and fluffy.

Made a huge difference in my Shepherds coat
I would highly recommend this for your pet with dry flaky skin. It worked magic for mine.

Amazing for cat’s dandruff
About a month ago I noticed that my cat began to scratch often and insistently; I also noticed that he had dandruff. So I thought a dandruff clearing shampoo was the solution. I bought Nature’s Miracle JFC Ultra-Cleanse Dander Destroyer Shampoo – 8 oz, and gave the cat a bath. Cat owners know it’s no fun giving a cat a bath… but add to that a long-coated Persian, and blow drying which drives the cat mad, and you’ll understand why I was really upset when Nature’s Miracle didn’t work. Actually, not only was it inefficient, it made his dandruff worse.I tried Virbac Epi-Soothe Shampoo, 16 oz next. I was a bit worried about how the cat would accept waiting in the bath for 10 minutes with the shampoo on, but he was fine. As soon as the fur started to dry I was able to see that 90% of the dandruff was gone. Once completely dry, I was also able to appreciate a silky, shiny fur like my cat didn’t have in a long time. And I also liked the fact that there was no ‘tropical mist’ or other equally chemical flavor; although it’s nice when a cat smells good, I don’t think it’a a good idea for possible allergies and/or dry skin; plus, I’m sure my cat and I don’t have the same tastes in perfumes :)The relief was instantaneous; he was able to sleep without interrupting to scratch. Additional bonus: no more tufts of hair all over the carpet!Two days later I noticed that he still scratches from time to time (this time rather lazily, not furiously), and I’m sure he would benefit from another bath; but because of the reasons previously explained, I think I’ll try to use the spray in between two baths set quite far apart. However, if your cat/dog has shorter hair and tolerates baths better, I’m sure the shampoo will completely relieve the itch after 2-3 uses. This shampoo is a huge difference from other pet shampoos I tried – it leathers nicely while applied, the coat feels silky afterwards, and most importantly: it provides great relief for itchy skin.If I pluck enough courage to give him a second bath soon, I’ll come back with an update.

An itchy dog’s best friend
We’ve been using this product for years now on our very yeasty, often itchy senior “puppy.” This product is fantastic and absolutely has saved him from many miserable days and nights. It is important that you use as directed. If your dog gets that yeasty smell and coating on his skin, wash thoroughly, working down to your dog’s skin, TWO times in one bathing session. Let this product sit for a full 10-15 min, EACH time. After the second wash, ensure that you rinse your dog well. The patented formula will create a thin, protective coating on your dog’s pelt. And he or she will smell wonderful, as will your carpet & home, while they go many itch-free days and nights. We’ve taken recently to mixing this shampoo with Virbac’s Pyrogen shampoo as our guy also has flea contact dermatitis and gets these little crusty scales which the Pyrogen treats perfectly. But the Epi-soothe truly does get rid of the yeast & bacteria some dogs suffer through while also protecting and lubricating their skin. Their fur will look fluffy and feel so soft after bathing. I do not know what we would do to alleviate our dog, Bear’s, suffering if I had not found this product. I could not recommend it enough. P.S. our dog has very dry skin so we also finish with the Virbac conditioner and just leave it in for him, but you can use a gentle conditioner or cream rinse of your own if your pet has dandruff or dry skin as well.

The one and only
Epi-soothe is awesome and has been for decades. If you got a dog with skin problems then this product is for you. Even kills a lot of fleas if you need it to. But donât use it as a flea solution, go get a proper one

Such a relief
This has been a lifesaver for my pup. She is the pit-bull breed and all my previous pups have had skin issues and get hives for many reasons. This is great when they have a break out. Works really quickly to relieve their scratching.

My dog has sensitive skin and his skin is allergic to many other shampoos. I think we found the right shampoo for him this time. He is not scratching after using it and his fur is very soft.

Episoothe is the perfect shampoo for digs with sensitive skin like puppies or those with allergies. It doesnât dry out skin and can be used frequently if needed. It doesnât have a strong scent, and will not alter the colour of your dogs fur. It lathers well and rinses out of a dense coat easily. I am very happy that Amazon.ca is selling this product.
