Griffon Shampoo Bar (Show Formula)

Engineered for Harsh, Wire, and Sporting Coats

A professional-grade, solid syndet shampoo bar developed specifically for the demands of wire-haired breeds and field-working dogs. Unlike standard liquid shampoos that strip moisture or heavy conditioners that soften natural harshness, the Show Formula cleans down to the skin while preserving the essential crisp, rugged texture of your dog’s jacket. Naturally scented.

What Makes It Superior

• Texture-Preserving Clean: Powered by gentle, coconut-derived Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) to cut through thick field mud, grease, and grime without blowing out or softening a proper wire coat.
• Hydrolyzed Rice Protein: Binds directly to the hair shaft to enhance volume, reinforce hair fiber strength, and add natural body and grip—crucial for ring presentation and rugged field protection.
• Skin-Soothing Recovery: Formulated with colloidal oatmeal and pro-vitamin B5 (DL-Panthenol) to calm post-hunt irritation, hydrate dry skin, and relieve brush burn.
• Concentrated & Long-Lasting: One 96 g (~3.4 oz) solid bar outlasts multiple 16 oz bottles of liquid show shampoo, eliminating plastic waste and messy spills in your grooming bag.
• Pure Cleansing, Zero Coat-Softening Conditioners: Formulated strictly as a dedicated shampoo bar without heavy conditioning waxes, silicones, or quaternary agents that collapse wire coat structure or ruin natural harshness.

Key Active Ingredients

• Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI): Ultra-mild "baby foam" surfactant that produces a rich, dense flash lather that rinses effortlessly clean.
• Hydrolyzed Rice Protein: Natural plant peptide that supports coat thickness and maintains the natural harsh, wire structure.
• Colloidal Oatmeal: Finely milled avenanthramides that lock in dermal comfort and prevent post-bath itch.
• DL-Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Penetrates the coat cuticles to support moisture retention and elasticity without leaving a silicone slick.
• Golden Jojoba Oil: Mimics natural canine sebum to condition the skin without weighing down furnishings or jacket hair.

Directions for Use

1. Wet: Thoroughly saturate your dog’s jacket and furnishings with warm water.
2. Lather: Rub the bar directly along the spine, chest, legs, and beard until a dense, rich lather builds.
3. Work In: Massage deep into the undercoat right down to the skin to lift embedded field dirt and grease.
4. Rinse: Rinse completely until the coat is clean and squeaky.
5. Care: Allow the bar to air-dry on a well-draining soap dish or deck between uses to ensure maximum longevity.

Groomer's Note: This is a dedicated cleansing bar formulated without coat-softening conditioners to protect proper harsh, wire jacket texture. If you own a soft-coated dog or prefer extra slip on beard and ear furnishings, feel free to use your own favorite leave-in conditioning spray on those targeted spots after the bath.

Show Ring Prep Tip: For competition, wash your Griffon 3 to 5 days before ring day (or 1 full week prior depending on jacket density). This lifts field grime and adds protein-backed volume while giving natural canine sebum just enough time to replenish that crisp, signature wire snap.
