Hi All,

I have formulated a new shampoo which would be at least 70% organic. But before going further, I wanted to have more input from professional groomers and pet owners. I need your help to understand better how we could make the product even better.

Here some questions:

what do you expect from a dog shampoo?

What brand do you uses when you groom your dog?

What will you make you buy a product more than another?

What is important for you in a product? What do you look at?

What would you modify in the current products you use? Why?

Would you buy an organic shampoo instead of the regular shampoo?

I have more questions and for those who would accept to take 5 minutes to answer to my little survey, please send me your email address.

Thank you very much for your help!!! I hope to hear from you all!!

Best,

Marie

What I want most from a shampoo is that it cleans without drying the coat or skin. I want it to rinse easily. And I want it concentrated, so I can dilute it, making it economical to use.

I use a variety of brands, depending on the individual needs of the dog in question. My main brands are Davis and Groomer's Edge. I also use Espree Hypoallergenic shampoo.

The things that influence my choices are effectiveness, gentleness, and how well the manufacturer stands behind their products. I'd also like to have the ingredients listed on the label, which few shampoo manufacturers do.

The things that are important to me are the things listed above.

I like the products I use. I'm not sure I'd change anything, other than price, LOL. Free shipping wouldn't be bad, either.

I don't know if I'd buy an organic shampoo over my regular shampoos or not. It would depend on how well they work and price. I don't necessarily look for "all natural" either. Natural and organic don't always mean high quality or even safe.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

May I ask you if you are a vet or a groomer?

I'm a vet tech/groomer who works in a vet clinic.

Would you have 5 minutes on the phone that I can ask you more questions?

I am sure you are busy, but I would love to have more input from you, especially coming from a professional like you. We need more comments from people who take care of the dogs.

I promise it won't take more than 5 min.

Would you accept?
