Regularly washing and shampooing the coat of a horse is not just an exercise in keeping the horse looking well. It is also an essential part of good grooming, ridding the coat of accumulated dirt, sweat and waste, which can harm the skin by clogging the pores, thereby diminishing the skin's capacity to 'breathe'. However, great care must be taken, in cases when frequent washing is necessary, not to rob the coat of it's natural oils and proteins, which do much to protect the hair and skin against environmental assaults.

Many shampoos contain aggressive detergents, which can ruin the horse's natural skin protection, leaving the coat appearance flat and coarse. N.A.F. Teatree Oil Shampoo is an effective, specifically formulated shampoo, containing the essential oils and proteins necessary to the health and vitality of the equine coat and skin, permitting frequent washing whilst aiding the natural, balanced protection system.
