Epi-Pet K-9 Care Sunscreen - Paw to Tail Protection

Description

The Epi-Pet K-9 Care Sunscreen is a great product for protecting your dogs and horses from sunburns. It comes in a convenient 3.5 oz bottle with a bag-on valve design, allowing for easy application at any angle. This sunscreen is the only FDA compliant sunscreen for pets, making it a safe choice for your furry friends.

All dogs and horses exposed to sun need sunscreen, especially those with short and thin hair, white and light hair, white and pink skin, and pets subjected to excessive sun exposure like boaters, swimmers, hikers, and snow skiers. It is also suitable for dogs at the dog park, outside living pets, shaved down pets, working dogs, and pets with allergic and inflamed skin.

This sunscreen not only protects your pet from the harmful rays of the sun but also acts as a skin and coat conditioner. It provides aroma therapy and is a non-greasy and non-oily solution. You can be assured of its safety as it is the only FDA compliant pet sunscreen available.

Now, let's address some frequently asked questions about the Epi-Pet K-9 Care Sunscreen:

Q: I have a Chinese Crested (a hairless dog). Can I put this product directly on her skin? Has anybody else used this on a hairless animal?
A: My dog is not hairless, but I spray it directly on her stomach, which has no hair and tends to burn easily. I have had no issues.

Q: What does FDA compliant mean exactly?
A: The Epi-Pet Sun Protector is the only sunscreen in the pet industry that meets the FDA's ingredient testing standards. This ensures that the product is legal and safe for use on pets. Human sunscreens are not formulated or prepared to be compatible with pets' skin. The Epi-Pet Sun Protector Sunscreen is safe if licked by the dog once it is applied.
