Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiseptic and Antifungal Medicated Shampoo for Dogs & Cats, 16 Fl Oz – Helps Alleviate Scaly, Greasy, red Skin – Paraben, Dye, Soap-Free (1 Pack) by Veterinary Formula

My German shepherd gets the occasional skin problem on his belly and legs. We still don’t know what causes it but when it pops up I bathe him with this soap and he seems far less itchy and it seems like the problem goes away for a whole. His skin will calm down and go back to a normal color after we’ve used this. Perhaps it’s yeast infections he keeps getting. But this stuff definitely works. You just have to let it sit on the skin for 5-10 minutes before rinsing. I think it smells perfectly fine too.

My dog had two big sores on his feet; he was chewing on them ripping out his fur. I put this spray on him, and he stopped chewing, and they are healing up quickly. I would definitely recommend this product and will purchase again.
My dog didn’t seem to mind the spray; the bottle is a pump bottle so no loud sounds when you put it on. Great product and happy with the results, so is my pup.

My cocker struggles with yeast production. I was recommended a different shampoo from my vet that was around $40. There was one ingredient that my vet was looking for in different shampoos. And it is in this product!! I have used it for months now and my cocker no longer itches uncontrollably. And he smells soooo good. Rinses very well. And cleans him perfectly! This was definitely the best choice and the price is affordable.

After months & months and I don’t want to even think about how much money I’ve spent on sprays, ointments, shampoos, different foods etc. I finally figured out what an M.D. was able to diagnose unlike a veterinarian. My poor little 11 lb Chiweenie has been suffering with a yeast infection. His skin was just getting worse & worse & constant itching and shaking his head. It was so bad he couldn’t hardly sleep at night for itching & scratching & shaking his head. It was driving both of us out of our minds. This incredible shampoo arrived two days ago and I immediately bathed him with it. Like someone else on here said, it kinda looked worse after his 1st bath and he did scratch some but nothing like he has been for months. It recommends leaving it on 5 to 10 minutes. All we could make it to was 5 but I’m seeing great improvement. I gave him bath 2 today. Big difference. So far I’ve only seen him scratch under his front left shoulder/leg pit. The areas that are or have been afflicted on him are: his entire back and back of his neck, the outsides back of his ears and nape of his head & his tail. Today after this second bath I notice after a couple of hours that a big section of his back, ears & tail are not as red and seem to be returning to their natural color. The neck area is still pretty red but he has stopped scratching at it with his back paws. It’s been the worse area so I expected it to take a little longer to begin healing. When you realize he was scratching constantly non stop it’s like a miracle to watch him now go for hours and NO scratching. I will continue to bathe him with this shampoo a couple of times per week until it’s all cleared up and the hair has started coming back good. Then, I’ll go to once a week then, once a month. He’s been afflicted with this horrible fungus twice and both times it’s been immediately after I’ve boarded him while out of town. Two different places. One is a very clean reputable groomer & the other a dog setter at their clean home. It’s not a contagious condition so it’s something environmentally and I think it’s bc at both places he was out in grassy fenced areas playing and rolling around in the grass. He doesn’t get to do that normally. I live in an apartment and he doesn’t get to run lose. He’s always on a leash with me. In any case I believe he runs & plays so hard while boarded that he probably sweats a lot. That moisture combined with grass he’s somewhat sensitive to has evolves into a full blown yeast infection. I will give him bath number 3 in a couple of days and further update our progress or lack there of. If you’d like to LIKE this review it will help to keep it to the top of the list so you’ll be able to find it and follow along.
7/29/25 UPDATE:

I just gave my little fellow bath #3.
Since his bath 3 days ago there is amazing improvement on his back from shoulders to tip of his tail. Redness is gone, hair is already starting to grow back and skin in that large area that was very red & inflamed before is pretty well back to its normal color. The backs of his ears that were a mess are now definitely on the mend and look very very good. The nape of his head (back neck area) and now the front of neck still are inflamed but will hopefully start healing now that he’s had bath number 3. I might add that in between baths I’ve been spraying all areas with a solution of apple cider vinegar (a natural topical & internal antifungal) every evening before he heads to bed to keep the yeast at bay. Bath #4 will take place in 2 more days and I will update.
UPDATE 8/6/25:
Actually today was bath number #5. He continues to improve. Bath was 4 hours ago he’s resting nicely and no scratching. This is a wonderful product.

8/13/25 UPDATE :
ok, this week I’ve given my little guy baths numbers 6 & 7 and this yeast infection is still continuing to improve each time. His back and ears are pretty much healed. Both sides of his rump and his chest area are showing improvement but not quite there yet. This dog’s skin felt hot in the beginning but each bath that temp is going down down. The scratching is very very minimal. I’ll just say this again. I highly highly recommend this shampoo and I will never bathe this dog with anything but it again. I will only update on the future if there is some unanticipated failure on it’s part .

I had 2 cats dealing with chin acne. There were many open wounds and hair loss on their chins from it. I was hesitant buying this shampoo because I wasn’t sure if it would really work for chin acne and I had already spent a couple weeks washing their chins with warm water (which didn’t seem to help) and I knew my cats weren’t going to be pleased with me touching their chins and having to wash shampoo off near their faces, but the reviews looked hopeful. I was very surprised! All it took was for one cat to have one wash and the other took two, but their chins cleared up and their fur grew back within a week. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures to show how well it works. I only had to use a dot amount of shampoo for the 3 times I used it so I have plenty left to use, but I will definitely be recommending this to anyone else who needs it for their pets. The texture was nice, it had a nice orange smell and it lathered up good. The shampoo didn’t seem to bother my cats as much as the water did for rinsing it off.
