FOREST DOG Herbal Rinse
A slow-infused botanical rinse handcrafted in small batches to support healthy skin, a balanced coat, and the skin’s natural microbiome. The skin microbiome refers to the diverse community of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses, that reside on the skin's surface. These microbes play a crucial role in protecting the skin, supporting the immune system, and maintaining overall skin health.
Unlike many grooming products that rely on detergents, fragrances, essential oils or harsh ingredients, FOREST DOG Herbal Rinse is made with organic herbs slowly infused for weeks in raw organic apple cider vinegar to gently extract the beneficial constituents of each plant.
Our blend of calendula, chamomile, oat straw, nettle, and plantain has been traditionally used to soothe irritated skin, calm occasional itching, support the skin barrier, and promote overall skin health.
Because healthy skin begins with a healthy microbiome, Forest Dog Herbal Rinse is designed to work with your dog’s skin—not strip it. Use after bathing, between baths, after outdoor adventures, or anytime your dog’s skin needs extra support.
Five botanicals. Each chosen with intention to soothe, nourish, and support your dog’s skin—naturally:
NETTLE
Mineral-rich nettle has a long history of traditional use for itchy, reactive skin. Its naturally occurring plant compounds help soothe irritation while supporting a healthy skin barrier and comfortable coat.
CALENDULA
Known for its affinity for the skin, calendula is traditionally used to calm redness, soothe irritation, and support the skin’s natural repair process. It’s especially lovely for tender, sensitive, or easily aggravated skin.
OAT STRAW
Gentle and nourishing, oat straw is naturally rich in minerals and soothing plant compounds. It helps comfort dry, itchy, sensitive skin while supporting softness and hydration without harsh ingredients.
PLANTAIN
Plantain leaf has been used traditionally as a soothing skin herb for everything from minor irritation to bug bites. Its naturally cooling, calming properties make it a beautiful botanical for itchy, uncomfortable skin.
CHAMOMILE
Chamomile is prized for its gentle, calming properties and is traditionally used to soothe redness, itching, and skin irritation. It brings an extra layer of comfort to sensitive or stressed skin.

Ingredients
Organic calendula flowers, organic chamomile flowers, organic oat straw, organic nettle leaf, organic plantain leaf, and raw organic apple cider vinegar.
Directions
General Use
Dilute 1–2 tablespoons of concentrate per 1 cup of water. For larger dogs, simply make more using the same ratio. Pour or spray onto a wet coat after bathing, between washes, or as needed. Massage into coat with hands and focus on belly, armpits, groin, skin folds and itchy areas. Towel dry or let coat air dry. Do not rinse off. Avoid eyes and inner ears.
Paw Soak
Dilute 1–2 tablespoons of concentrate per 1 cup of warm water. Soak paws for 5–10 minutes, then gently pat dry. Do not rinse. Use as needed after walks or for routine paw care.
Small Batch Notice
FOREST DOG Herbal Rinse is handcrafted using a traditional slow-infusion process that requires several weeks to complete. While we strive to keep products in stock, occasional production times of 2–4 weeks may occur when a fresh batch is infusing. We believe quality is worth the wait.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, inside the ears, and open or severely irritated skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult your veterinarian if needed. This product is intended to support normal skin health and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.
