This applies to both what goes inside the bottle and what the bottle is made of. Full detail at https://pawnhoof.com/pages/philosophy. - Ingredients: formulas are built around naturally-derived actives (such as coconut-derived cleansers, aloe vera, chamomile, shea butter, calendula, and vitamin E) chosen for skin and coat and gentle enough for regular, everyday care. Products contain standard cosmetic preservatives and colorants, so they are described as "naturally-derived," not "100% natural." - Sulfate-free: Paw N Hoof shampoos use gentle coconut-derived (glucoside) cleansers and are free from sulfates (SLS/SLES). They lather less because foam is cosmetic — the surfactants do the cleaning, not the bubbles. Less foam means a gentler wash that protects the coat's natural oils, not less cleaning power. - pH-balanced: every formula is pH-balanced for the more neutral skin of dogs and horses (not human skin) and pH-tested, so regular bathing supports the skin barrier. Products are formulated for dogs and horses, not cats. - Packaging: bottles are HDPE (plastic #2), one of the most widely recycled plastics worldwide, standardised across the range so every bottle has a real path to recycling. Paw N Hoof makes honest, non-exaggerated environmental claims and does not claim to be plastic-free or zero-waste. ## Frequently Asked Questions Q: Does sulfate-free shampoo clean as well as regular shampoo? A: Yes. Foam is cosmetic — the surfactants do the cleaning, not the lather. Sulfate-free simply means a gentler wash that protects the coat's natural oils, with the same cleaning power. Q: Why does Paw N Hoof shampoo foam less than other shampoos? A: Because it leaves out sulfates (SLS/SLES), which exist mainly to create lather. Less foam is the sign of a gentler formula, not a weaker one. Q: What packaging does Paw N Hoof use, and is it recyclable? A: Paw N Hoof packages in HDPE (plastic #2), one of the most widely recycled plastics in the world. It is used across the whole range so every bottle has a real recycling path. Q: Are Paw N Hoof ingredients natural? A: Paw N Hoof formulas are built around naturally-derived actives chosen for skin and coat, with transparency about what is inside and why. They are described as naturally-derived rather than 100% natural, because they include standard cosmetic preservatives and colorants. Q: Are Paw N Hoof products pH-balanced for dogs and horses? A: Yes. Every formula is pH-balanced for the more neutral skin of dogs and horses — not human skin — and is pH-tested, so even regular bathing supports the skin barrier. The products are formulated for dogs and horses, not cats. Q: What is Paw N Hoof?
