Would this shampoo whiten my dog's beard that is discolored purple/brown from saliva due to excessive licking?

It will help to keep it clean but won't completely remove the stains. My maltese has tear stains and this product won't remove them.

yes, it helped our bichon's coat whiten and yes helped whiten her muzzle where she had food stains. We also use a product called Angel Eyes for tear and saliva stains. She looks beautiful thanks to these two products.

Yes, absolutely. Wet the coat, apply and lather it then wait a couple of minutes before rinsing. Works beautifully for my St Bernard who has lots of pure white on her coat, including all four of her paws. Smells nice too!

Yes, I think so. This is a wonderful product. You may want to use the M&J; Dog Essentials Nutrient Fusion Pre-Bath Treatment. I have a Black Pomeranian and have found if I use the pre-bath treatment, his fur comes out a lot softer and easier to manage longer term than using the Earthbath wash and conditioner by themselves.

The product itself doesn't impact your dogs shedding, however bathing your dog in warm water or the stress condition of being bathed can trigger a shedding incident or coat "blowout" similar to what happens when you take your dog to the vet (assuming your dog dislikes the vet as much as mine!). Otherwise it's just a great basic shampoo that lathers well and rinses easily and the dog smells great---once you get past the soggy-dog wet fur odor stage of course.

Brian, I think any whitening action would be accomplished by the toothpaste and/or mouthwash you use. The brushing action of the Sonicare is aggressive enough that it should remove surface stains but YMMV :).

We bought this product because we thought our puppy had mange. We were fortunate that he did not have it, but I loved this shampoo. Unless you have a very minor spot on your dog, I don't think this would act as a cure, but I do think it will make bath time more comfortable for them!!

Would this product clean up piddle spots my little yorkie makes sometimes on the carper?

I'm sure you could but, as a whole, I didn't find the product very effective. I have a hairless dog and using it made no difference in so far as her "tan". She got as dark (or overexposed, I suppose) as other summers when I used no product on her. I've heard about a baby-proof sunscreen that has no dangerous chemicals in case of licking and I'm trying to find out more about that since I'm hoping it would be more effective. In short, I wouldn't waste my money on this product. I'm surely not buying it again.

Pre-treat the stains, and it should work well. I have several dogs, so that's a big reason I have it.

You asked a question that is impossible to answer without knowing the source of the odor. But I will say that if your dog is otherwise healthy and in a clean environment, this shampoo will impart a slight citrus-like aroma to his/her coat. If your dog is always in a clean environment and bathed yet still has an offensive smell, you should consult a doctor for your dog for a physical exam in my opinion.

Potentially, as it would clean off the bacteria, I imagine it could help gum & tooth illness? However, my dogs wouldn't lick the stuff, so I can't answer with authority. We get our small dog's teeth cleaned ultrasonically (no anesthesia) every three months, and it makes a big difference in her breath. We also like a vanilla mint toothpaste (rarely use it, but when we do, the clean scent remains a good 12 hours minimum). The toothpaste is "enzymatic" and is called C.E.T. Enzymatic Toothpaste.

nor sure. My dog is picky because of his allergies. Some days he loves these some days he wants nothing to do with them. Cleaning his teeth does not enter into it

My Samoyeds have never had the tear stain problem. I liked this product except for its slight floral fragrance. I have since switched to the Natural Whitening and Brightening Shampoo by the Natural Chemistry company. My groomers really, really like this product. It is also available on Amazon. Sorry I can't help with your specific problem about tear stain removal.

Yes. I scrub my dogs with it all over the face and we have never had any problems. It's very gentle.

Yes. I am very pleased with the product. I purchased it under the recommendation of my groomer.

Plain water will still get the job done but I have on occasion used a drop or two of Dawn dish soap depending on how muddy their feet are. I'm sure dog shampoo works just as well if not better.

It would not lather up very well. I would say NO. You could rub your wet fingers in it and apply it to your face. It would be the same as rubbing bar soap on your face. Buy a boar hair brush.
