The Simple Answer: NO


Can I Use Normal Soap on My Dog?
No & Here's Why:
Skin pH Differences:
Human skin has a different pH compared to dog skin. Using human soap on dogs can disrupt their skin's natural pH balance, leading to irritation and dryness.
Increased Vulnerability:
Human soaps can make dogs more susceptible to parasites and viruses due to their altered skin condition.
Irritation Risk:
Ingredients in human soaps can cause allergic reactions or irritations in dogs.
If I Can't Use Normal Soap on My Dog. What About Dog Soap?
Ingredients Matter:
Dog soaps, like the ones made by Megan & Willow, use all natural ingredients.
Coconut oil is antibacterial, antifungal, and a great moisturiser, making it suitable for all dog skin types, including sensitive or irritated skin.
Saponification Process:
Dog soaps are made through saponification, a reaction between natural oils and sodium hydroxide (caustic soda).
The soap cures over 4-6 weeks, resulting in a product safe for dog skin.
Packaging and Environmental Considerations:
Megan & Willow use Glassine Bags for packaging, which are 100% paper, fully recyclable, and biodegradable, reducing plastic waste.
Usage Tips:
Avoid Eyes and Sensitive Areas:
When washing your dog, avoid the eyes, mucus membranes, and any open wounds.
Do not use dog soap on pregnant dogs or puppies under 15 weeks old.
Scent Sensitivity:
Dog soaps have a mild scent to avoid overwhelming your dog's sensitive nose and to ensure the safety of essential oils used.
Cats Warning:
Do not use dog soaps on cats. Cats have a different skin pH, and using dog soap can cause skin issues.
