Using Tropiclean Coconut Hypo - Allergenic Shampoo is easy. First, wet your puppy or kitten's coat thoroughly with warm water. Then, pour a small amount of the shampoo into your hands and lather it gently onto your pet's skin and fur, avoiding the eyes and mouth. Massage it in for a few minutes to let the coconut, oat, and aloe extracts work their magic. Rinse the shampoo out completely with warm water until the water runs clear. As for the packaging change, don't be surprised if you receive either the new or old look. This shampoo is safe for pets 12 weeks or older, but always keep an eye on your pet during the bath. Store the shampoo in a cool, dry place. With regular use, your pet will have a clean, soft coat and a great tropical scent.
