Trying to lean toward a more natural lifestyle has me looking at natural products for my two Pomeranians, as well.  I’ve had them for years and they’re a part of my family.  They deserve the best and Sentry Natural Defense Flea Shampoo for dogs is one of the best natural dog shampoos I’ve found so far.  My other review for their Squeeze-On tubes of flea treatment is here: natural defense flea squeeze-on review.

Let’s face it: products like K9 Advantix, Advantage, and Frontline are essentially chemical pesticides and when confronted about the reactions and seizures that some dogs are having to these products, the manufacturers act like they’ve never heard of such a thing. I’m tired of dumping a bunch of chemicals on my pets and on myself, so I’ve also chosen this and Natural Vet Blends products to keep fleas away.

The active ingredients in Natural Defense products, according to the manufacturer’s website, are cinnamon oil, lemongrass oil, clove oil, thyme oil, and peppermint oil. The explanation behind why these products work so well is simple: neutotransmitters help control your heart rate and your metabolism and only in insects like fleas and ticks, a neurotransmitter called Octopamine is produced. The ingredients in Natural Defense products block this neurotransmitter, killing the insect almost instantly. Because humans and animals don’t produce this neurotransmitter (only insects), it is safe to use unless your dog has an allergy to one of the listed ingredients. Thus, your dog will end up smelling a bit like Christmas, but will be flea free.

Keep in mind, though, that this product won’t help keep the fleas off of your dogs if you don’t get rid of the fleas in your home, too. If your pets have had fleas for a long time in your house, you will need to treat the inside of the house (including carpets, furniture, etc). Looking for a natural way to do that, too? Try Natural Defense Household Flea Powder.
