From BPA-free toys to food made with human-grade ingredients, pet parents are demanding more clean, safe and high-quality products for the furry members of the household than ever—as there are many animal lovers who are frustrated by a lack of regulations in the pet grooming industry, 4-Legger took it upon itself to create a new line of certified organic dog shampoo products.
Three years ago, 4-Legger unveiled a line of USDA Certified Organic to Food Grade Shampoos and has now set out to share a better way to communicate the fact that its products are made with all-natural, organic ingredients. The new aloe-based product line displays both the USDA seal and the words "Certified Organic," as approved by the National Organic Program.
The five new products from 4-Legger include varieties like soothing lavender, cooling peppermint and tea tree, as well as a hypoallergenic option for dogs with sensitive skin.
