Dogs and cats may be polar opposites, but one thing they have in common is shedding. If you are a dog or cat parent, chances are you have found what seems like an endless amount of pet hairs on your clothes and around the house. Luckily, we have some helpful tips to help reduce pet shedding!

- Stimulation of oxygen-rich blood to feed and nourish the skin's surface
- Detoxification
- Helps to remove toxins along with other unhealthy debris.
- Bonding time for you and your pet
