The Dog and I

2 in 1 balm to clean and protect skin folds in dogs.

A gentle, all natural wrinkle and fold balm, designed especially for dogs with facial folds and creases (think bulldogs, pugs, and other squishy faces). Many brachycephalic dog breeds fall into this category.

We all know they can get pretty stinky and need a lot of TLC. This natural 2 in 1 balm will make keeping on top of daily wrinkle maintenance easy.

Please note - this product is unscented/fragrance free which means there is no added fragrance - it does however, have a natural smell from the ingredients. It is not unpleasant but not floral or fruity.  It is not offensive to a dog's delicate sense of smell at all.

Postage is £3.50 for all orders.

Description

2-in-1 balm to cleanse and protect skin folds

A gentle, all natural wrinkle and fold balm, designed especially for dogs with facial folds and creases (think bulldogs, pugs, and other squishy faces).

Handmade in the UK with simple, safe ingredients, this balm is designed to clean and protect those awkward areas where moisture and grime can build up. ( It’s completely lick safe and fragrance free, making it ideal for sensitive dogs.

How it works. The balm uses gentle oils to dissolve excess oils and grime in the folds – a bit like an oil cleanser – so dirt lifts away easily when you wipe, while a light layer of butters and waxes stays behind to protect the skin.

Why Buy It?

2 in 1 Product - Great Value

Formulated to gently lift away dirt and grime from wrinkles and folds while leaving a light, protective layer on the skin.

Herbal Inspired & Fragrance Free

Made using calendula infused sunflower oil and raspberry seed oil, with no added fragrance or essential oils – ideal for dogs with sensitive skin or noses. Raspberry seed oil is rich in omega fatty acids and vitamin E, helping to nourish, soften and support the skin’s natural barrier without feeling overly greasy. Some studies and traditional use suggest it may offer a small degree of natural UV support, but it has not been clinically tested or rated as a sunscreen, so it should never be relied upon for sun protection.

Better for Squishy Faces

Perfect for breeds with facial folds, lip folds or other creases that can get damp, smelly or uncomfortable if not cared for and cleaned regularly.

Water Free Formula

Being water free and preservative free means the balm itself doesn’t provide the moisture bacteria need to thrive. You are not adding extra dampness into already tricky folds, just a thin protective layer.

How to Use

Apply a thin layer to clean wrinkles and folds, allow it to soften any build-up, then gently wipe away excess balm and dirt with a clean cloth. Use as often as required.

FAQ

Is a fragranced version available? No, this is available as an unfragranced product only. This is better for your dog, especially in areas that may be prone to irritation already. It does have a slight natural scent of the oils. It is not unpleasant although I would not describe it as floral or perfumed - your dog certainly won't find it offensive.

Are the products suitable for puppies? Yes, as this is fragrance free, it is suitable for puppies.

Is the packaging sustainable? All products are supplied in aluminium tins. Aluminium can be recycled forever. They do however, have an EPE liner to protect against leakage. Your labels will be printed on paper in most cases and you can read more about my printers eco credentials here. If however, your logo is of a low resolution it may be necessary to print on vinyl to achieve the best quality imagery. This does not happen often and in that scenario, I will make you aware. All ingredients used are of a cosmetic or food grade and sourced from reputable UK suppliers well known within the industry

Why does it smell a bit 'odd'? This a is completely natural product. There are no added ingredients that will mask those used. The raspberry seed oil does have a slight odour that you may not be familiar with, but it is not unpleasant, (like neem for example), and I promise your dog won't mind at all.


Why has my balm got little grainy balls in it? Don’t panic – it hasn’t gone off! It’s just the natural butters and oils (like shea or coconut) doing their thing. When they melt and cool at different rates, they can form little crystals. This can happen soon after being made or a few months later. It is normal. A bit like the white bloom you may see on chocolate occasionally. They melt straight into your skin with a bit of warmth and don’t affect the balm’s at all.
