"Our cattle dog has been battling yeast and bacterial skin infections for years. When I heard vets were starting to recommend 4-Legger Tea Tree instead of harsh chemical alternatives, I was so happy. This is exactly what she needed."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Verified Dog Parent — Cattle Dog Owner

When your dog won't stop itching — and you've tried everything — the problem usually isn't what you're putting on their skin. It's what you're NOT leaving off.

COOLING is the only dog shampoo that combines organic tea tree, peppermint, and eucalyptus essential oils in a formula Certified to Organic Standards by the USDA National Organic Program — making it a true, holistic alternative to medicated dog shampoo without a single synthetic chemical.

✓ Targets yeast and bacteria at the root — organic tea tree oil is recommended by holistic veterinarians as a safe, effective alternative to harsh medicated shampoos for fungal and bacterial skin conditions.
✓ Cools and soothes instantly — peppermint essential oil reduces inflammation, calms hot spots, and brings immediate relief to red, irritated skin.
✓ Naturally deodorizing — eucalyptus lifts odor at the source while organics leave the coat clean, fresh, and residue-free.
✓ Supports skin barrier recovery — every certified organic ingredient works with your dog's natural oils, not against them.
✓ Trusted by holistic veterinarians — recommended as a safe alternative to chemical-laden medicated shampoos for fungal and bacterial skin conditions.
✓ Safe for reactive and sensitive skin — every ingredient is readable, certified organic, and free of synthetic detergents, parabens, and synthetic fragrances.
✓ Concentrated formula — a little goes a long way. Far more baths per bottle than conventional shampoos.

How to use: Because it's concentrated, this formula activates with water — add more water as you wash to build a light, effective lather. Wet your dog thoroughly before applying, work a small amount through the coat, and keep adding water as you go. More water = more lather. It's a different technique than conventional shampoos, and once you get it, you won't go back.

Not recommended for cats or puppies.

What’s Inside — And Why It Matters

Every ingredient is carefully chosen to support healthy skin.

No fillers, no shortcuts, no synthetic detergents.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Tea tree oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree, native to Australia. Entirely plant-derived, no synthetic substitutes.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Recommended by holistic veterinarians as a safe, effective alternative to medicated shampoos for yeast and bacterial conditions. Deeply cleanses while reducing fungal and bacterial overgrowth. Energetically supports confidence and strength. At the concentration used in 4-Legger's formula, tea tree oil is safe for adult dogs — it is NOT recommended for puppies or cats.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Peppermint essential oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of the Mentha piperita plant. 100% natural, no synthetic reproduction of the scent or benefit.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Natural antibacterial and antifungal. Cools hot spots and reduces inflammation on contact. Helps balance oily skin and moisturize dry, itchy patches. Also helps to tone the skin and balance sebum production. The cooling sensation you and your dog will feel immediately is real — it's the menthol in peppermint working to soothe inflamed, red skin.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Eucalyptus essential oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of the Eucalyptus globulus tree. Entirely plant-derived.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Provides relief for bug bites and skin irritation. Naturally deodorizing and aids in the reduction of bacteria, fungi, and inflammation. Uplifting and clarifying — the fresh, clean scent of eucalyptus is recognizable and long-lasting without synthetic fragrance. Part of the tri-blend (tea tree + peppermint + eucalyptus) that gives COOLING its distinctive therapeutic profile.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Aloe juice is pressed from the inner leaf gel of the Aloe barbadensis plant. 100% natural and plant-derived.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Soothes dryness, flakiness, and minor skin irritation on contact. Acts as a natural conditioner that adds moisture and shine to the coat without buildup. Long used as a natural healer for skin conditions from dry flaky skin to minor infections. Helps carry other active ingredients deeper into the coat and skin for enhanced effectiveness.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Vegetable glycerin is a naturally occurring compound derived from plant oils. 4-Legger sources from USA-grown, non-GMO organic corn.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards. Derived from USA-grown non-GMO organic corn.

What Does It Do?
A natural humectant that draws moisture from the air and locks it into the skin and coat. Helps give the formula a smooth consistency that spreads evenly through the coat without synthetic thickeners. Supports hydration between baths and contributes to the soft, residue-free finish after rinsing.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Coconut oil is pressed from the fruit of Cocos nucifera. Saponification is the traditional process of turning oils into a gentle, effective cleanser — no synthetic detergents needed.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Deeply hydrating and protective. Creates a gentle moisture barrier while remaining mild enough for inflamed, irritated, or sensitive skin. As a saponified oil, it forms the cleansing base of the formula — lifting dirt and residue without stripping the skin's natural protective layer. This is why 4-Legger cleans without synthetic surfactants or detergents.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Olive oil is cold-pressed from the fruit of Olea europaea. One of the oldest and most well-documented natural skincare ingredients in the world.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
Rich in vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and antioxidants. Nourishes, rejuvenates, and protects the skin and coat. One of nature's oldest and most trusted skin conditioners. As a saponified oil it contributes to the gentle cleansing base, leaving the coat soft and conditioned — not stripped.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Jojoba "oil" is technically a liquid wax extracted from the seeds of Simmondsia chinensis. Entirely plant-derived and remarkably stable.

Is It Organic?
Yes – Certified to USDA Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
A natural cleanser and excellent moisturizer. Jojoba's fatty acids closely mimic the skin's own natural oils, helping to rejuvenate and restore dry, flaky skin without clogging pores or leaving residue. Its similarity to sebum means it absorbs readily and leaves the coat feeling naturally conditioned rather than coated.

Is It Natural?
Yes – Rosemary extract is derived from the leaves of Salvia rosmarinus (formerly Rosmarinus officinalis). Entirely plant-derived.

Is It Organic?
Yes. USDA Certified to Organic standards.

What Does It Do?
A powerful natural antioxidant that preserves the formula's freshness without synthetic preservatives or parabens. Also provides anti-inflammatory benefits for the skin. No parabens, no synthetic preservatives — just rosemary doing what it has done for centuries: protecting, preserving, and soothing.

What Pet Parents Ask Most About This Shampoo

Because it's concentrated, a little goes a long way — you'll use far less per bath than conventional shampoos. Wet your dog thoroughly, apply a small amount, and add water as you work it through the coat. The 16oz bottle typically outlasts several bottles of a standard shampoo.

The 1-gallon size is the best value for multi-dog households or frequent bathers.

Many pet parents choose this formula specifically for dogs dealing with yeast, fungal, or bacterial skin conditions. Tea tree oil is well-known for its natural antifungal and antibacterial properties, and peppermint cools inflamed skin on contact. It's a popular holistic alternative to medicated dog shampoo. Results vary by dog and severity — if your dog has a diagnosed skin condition, consult your vet before switching products.

No.

Tea tree and peppermint are potent essential oils and are should not be used on puppies under 12 weeks of age.

This formula is designed for adult dogs only. If you have a puppy, we have some great puppy shampoo recommendations for you.

You must be new to a true organic dog shampoo.

The trick is adding more water — not more shampoo. This concentrated formula activates with water. The more saturated your dog's coat, the better the lather. Wet thoroughly before applying, then keep adding water as you massage it through the coat. Most people who struggle with lather are simply not using enough water — once you adjust the technique, you'll get a great result every time.

Start by thoroughly wetting your dog’s coat with warm water. Apply a small amount of shampoo and gently massage it into the coat, working from head to tail while avoiding the eyes.

Because this is a concentrated, natural formula without synthetic thickeners, it has a thinner consistency than conventional shampoos. For best results, add more water—not more shampoo—to help create a light, effective lather. Rinse thoroughly and repeat if needed.

For an even easier application and richer foam, you can dilute the shampoo in a 4-Legger Foamer Bottle. This helps distribute the shampoo more evenly, reduces product use, and makes bath time quicker and more enjoyable for both you and your dog.

The simple answer is all the bad stuff you find in traditional dog shampoo!

4-Legger is committed to clean ingredients so you won't find any synthetic chemicals in our dog shampoo!

Medicated shampoos use pharmaceutical actives like chlorhexidine or miconazole — which work but can be harsh on the skin barrier with regular use.

This formula uses certified organic tea tree and peppermint to address the same concerns naturally, without synthetic drugs, sulfates, or artificial preservatives.

We get this question a lot. So much so that we wrote an article about it. You can find it here.

Bottom Line: At the dilution levels used in this formula, organic tea tree oil is safe for adult dogs and is recommended by holistic vets for dogs with skin sensitivities.

The key word is dilution — pure (undiluted) tea tree oil is toxic to dogs and cats (and quite frankly not safe for humans either). Our formula uses a carefully measured concentration of certified organic tea tree oil, not the concentrated raw oil. Never apply undiluted essential oils directly to your dog's skin. We also carefully select our tea tree so it is the highest quality.
