The Most Toxic Ingredients in Pet Products and How to Avoid Them
We groom pets because we care about them and have their best interests at heart. Grooming is an important part of a pet's healthcare routine. It helps keep their skin moisturized and clean, their fur soft and, of course, helps with that iconic dog smell. But your current grooming routine could be harming your pets without you even realizing it.
Just like with our own shampoos, soaps and hair care products, dog products are often riddled with toxic ingredients. But trying to read the ingredients list on a product label can feel like deciphering a cryptic code. Spotting those harmful chemicals and understanding which ingredients are safe is essential to protecting your pet and making sure that anything that goes on their body is beneficial for their skin, coat and overall health.
We've rounded up the most toxic ingredients in dog products and how to avoid them. Plus, we've included some safe and effective ingredients to look for instead!
Always check ingredient labels for these toxic ingredients.
Formaldehyde
While you likely won't see the word formaldehyde on your dog product ingredient list, it's often there hidden under other names. Pet grooming products often use formaldehyde as a preservative, but it can cause your dog's skin to blister, dry out and become incredibly itchy. The names you'll often see formaldehyde listed under are
Diazolidinyl urea
Imidazolidinyl urea
Quarternium-15
Isopropyl alcohol
Isopropyl alcohol (commonly known as rubbing alcohol) can often find its way into pet care products. As you can imagine, this is highly drying for both fur and skin. It also makes skin more porous, making it easier for other toxic ingredients to absorb into your dogs' skin. It can also be listed as SD Alcohol 40 or SD-40, but this is not to be confused with Oleyl alcohol, which is safe to use.
Cocamide MEA
Cocamide MEA is used in dog shampoos to make them thick and foamy. Although coconut fatty acids are used in the process of making Cocamide MEA, it is not a natural ingredient (but it's often marketed as one). It's made with a synthetic chemical called monoethanolamide (MEA). Studies have shown that MEA on its own is irritative and corrosive, and Cocomide MEA is toxic when inhaled in aerosol form. It's definitely not something you want to be putting on your dogs' skin.
Ethanolamine Compounds
Diethanolamine (DEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA)
Are both ethanolamine compounds, which, similar to MEA, are emulsifiers and help to make shampoo foamy. Both compounds have been linked to liver cancer, and DEA is also linked to hormone disruption, liver tumours, and buildup in the kidneys and liver, causing organ toxicity.
Parabens
Parabens are also used as preservatives in many dog grooming products. They are known to build up inside the body, and over time can lead to cancer, reproductive problems and estrogen disruption. Sometimes parabens are listed under different names, including:
Butylparaben
Propylparaben
Methylparaben
Essentially, if it has the word paraben in it, avoid it
Phthalates
Phthalates are used in dog grooming products to help bond the fragrance to the rest of the ingredients. The problem is that they are hormone disruptors, which can cause severe issues to your dog's endocrine system. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has listed phthalates as carcinogenic. Phthalates can also be found in vinyl flooring and used to soften plastic. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want that on my, or my dogs' skin.
7. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) & Propylene Glycol (PPG)
Polyethylene glycol (PEG)
Is a substance used to help retain moisture and water. It's often used in laxatives, as an ink solvent for printer heads, and to help make large, durable soap bubbles in dog shampoo. It's a synthetic ingredient made from petroleum, and it can be very harsh on fur and skin. On top of that, it's known as a penetration enhancer, which means that it encourages the absorption of other harmful chemicals into your dog's bloodstream.
Propylene Glycol (PPG)
Is a chemical that is used in cosmetics to ensure they maintain their consistency. It helps prevents products from melting or freezing, but it can also make skin more porous, allowing toxic and harmful substances to reach your dogs bloodstream. It can also cause skin irritation and the Environmental Working Group has added PPG to the list of chemicals causing moderate health issues.
Sulfates
Sodium Lauryl Sulfates or SLS is incredibly common in many household products, including toothpaste, engine degreasers, floor cleaners, soaps and dog products. The toxicity of sulfates has been highlighted in the media lately and is one of the top offenders when it comes to toxic chemicals found in products we use daily. There are many different types of sulfates, including Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Ammonium Laureth Sulfate.
No toxic ingredients in Groomer Swag Products EVER!
We're committed to using no chemicals in any of our products.
Mineral oil
Mineral oil doesn't sound like a nasty chemical, but it can have a negative impact on your dog's skin and fur. Mineral oil is a hydrocarbon derived from the petroleum cracking process. Not only is the process terrible for the environment, but the product itself creates buildup on the skin leading to itchiness and rashes. On top of that, it can prevent new fur growth since it clogs the follicles, inhibiting the skin's ability to excrete toxins or generate sebum, which is essential for skin lubrication and protection.
Silicones
Silicones are used in dog products and other pet products to make fur silky and smooth. The problem with silicone based ingredients is that they're very hard to remove and will build up on your pets fur and skin. This clogs the follicle. Silicone is similar to rubber or plastic. It makes fur look shiny, but that’s just because it’s coated in a plastically film, not because it’s actually helping the hair. Silicone may be listed as Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, and Cyclopentasiloxane. Basically, if you see something ending in cone or siloxane then it’s likely a form of silicone.
Synthetic dyes
Synthetic dyes are often added to dog products, but they have no purpose other than aesthetic. Companies put these colored dyes into products to make them look pretty, but they are typically made from toxic ingredients that are not good for your pet. There is still not a lot of regulation around the use of synthetic dyes in pet grooming products, so you need to read the labels and avoid them yourself. Synthetic dyes can prevent hair growth by blocking follicles and increasing skin sensitivity.
Petrochemicals
Petrochemicals, as the name suggests, are byproducts of the petroleum industry, and they are often found in hair care, personal care products, and dog products. Their purpose is typically as a moisturizing agent or to add fragrance, but there are some serious side effects associated with their use. Petrochemicals like aldehydes and benzene derivatives can cause allergic reactions, central nervous system disorders, and cancer.
Triclosan
Triclosan is found in many household and personal care products like toothpaste, soap and dog products. It’s used for its antibacterial and antifungal properties, but the long-term implications of triclosan are worrying. It’s now showing up in the urine and breastmilk of humans and in our waterways. The chemical is accumulating in our bodies and the bodies of our pets, which can lead to lung irritation, organ system toxicity, and endocrine disruption. This high hazard ingredient has been banned in some parts of the world, but not everywhere, so it’s still important to look out for it on your dog products.
Phenoxyethanol
Phenoxyethanol is a chemical preservative that is used in dog products. It has a pleasant odor, similar to roses, and has an oily consistency. It’s not always listed as phenoxyethanol on the label and may appear as PhE, dowanol, rose ether, phenoxetol, ethylene glycol monophenyl ether or beta-hydroxyethyl phenyl ether. Phenoxyethanol, while approved in small doses, have been shown to lead to hives, eczema, rashes and skin irritation in both humans and pets.
We always recommend doing your research before investing in a product to ensure that they operate in a way that aligns with you.
Safe and effective ingredients for dog grooming products
Many Dog Cologne, Face Wash and Dog Shampoo brands contain ingredients that we’ve listed above, and that’s not to say those products are bad, but it’s just unnecessary to use toxic chemicals when we have access to so many natural, safe alternatives. We have a choice, and so much more knowledge than we did before. Because of that, there are better options that have developed over the years, giving the same successful and positive results. Organic and natural chemistry has come so far, and with brands like Groomer Swag, you can be sure you won’t just be using toxic free products, but also very effective natural products with organic, safe ingredients.
Here are some safe and effective Dog Cologne, Face Wash and Dog Shampoo ingredients that will benefit their skin and coat.
Safe ingredients in Dog Cologne Face Washes and Dog Shampoo
These ingredients are nourishing and safe for your dogs coat and skin.
Aloe vera
Aloe vera is a type of succulent plant typically grown in dry and hot climates and is notoriously used to soothe sunburn. But this ingredient is also incredibly hydrating and promotes the healing of your dog's skin. It's great for dogs with sensitive skin and also helps strengthen and grow hair/fur. Aloe vera gel contains vitamins A, B, C, and E, magnesium, calcium, zinc, and amino acids.
Crambe Abyssinica seed oil
Crambe Abyssinica seed oil is extracted from Crambe Abyssinica seeds, a plant with small white flowers native to Africa and the Mediterranean region. The oil is high in omegas 6 and 9 and is a natural anti-inflammatory, helping to soothe irritated and sensitive skin. It also promotes skin plumpness, hair elasticity and strengthens follicles from the inside out. It's often called the "best-kept secret" in the natural skincare industry, but the secret's out! And now you can find it as a main ingredient in many of our products.
Phytosterols
Phytosterols are natural plant molecules which are found in a variety of different plants. In fact, there are over 200 different types of phytosterols, all of which have incredible benefits for damaged and irritated skin. If your pup is suffering from dry or damaged skin, regardless of the cause, products containing phytosterols can help to speed up healing. Phytosterols help to prevent the breakdown of collagen and help stimulate hair growth. This is great for dogs who have lost hair due to allergic reactions or ageing.
Hydroxypropyltrimonium inulin
While this ingredient name may look scary, it's entirely natural and provides many benefits to your dog's coat. You may also see it listed as agave inulin, as it comes from the blue agave family. It is well known in the natural hair care industry for its anti-static and hydrating properties, helping your dog's fur retain moisture. On top of that, when used in dog shampoo, it gives your dog's coat and skin more time to soak up all the other beneficial ingredients.
There are many other amazing natural ingredients that are both safe and effective for your dog. Find a complete list of ingredients.
ingredients in our Dog Cologne are aqua, essential fragrance oil
