Due to a lack of regulations, many pet grooming products are not as safe as they claim to be. Pet skin is also as thin as baby skin (approx 5 x thinner) depending on breed. Therefore much care needs to be taken when buying pet skincare products.
In this episode of The Petropolist podcast, Dr. Poonum Wilkhu discusses the difference between pet grooming products and why the consumer needs to tread cautiously when choosing pet shampoos, conditioners, paw wipes, and any other grooming products that may expose your pets to toxic chemicals which may cause harm.
