Paperbark is an Australian native with anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and insect repellent properties, and it is calming, which helps if bath time is not your dog's favourite part of the week. Zesty lemongrass does the freshening. Made in Australia from 99%+ plant-derived ingredients, and Bondi Wash say it also suits other furry friends such as cats and horses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGentle, non-toxic formulation designed to suit a dog's skin and system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e99%+ plant-derived ingredients.

The only non-natural ingredients are food-grade preservatives, and they deliberately avoid raw materials with a bad production footprint such as palm oil and rosewood. Greywater and septic safe, so the rinse water off the lawn is not a problem either.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA dog-specific blend, not a human wash relabelled.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Paperbark and Lemongrass scent was made for dogs. Paperbark is an Australian native chosen for anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and insect repellent properties as much as for how it smells, and it happens to be calming, which is useful on a dog who has worked out what the hose means.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThey refuse soft-plastic pouch refills, on purpose.\u003c\/strong\u003e Bondi Wash say they are asked for them constantly and have decided against, because soft pouches are not fully recyclable and end up in landfill. Their refill route is a 5L bulk bottle instead. Most brands take the easier road here.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe cruelty-free claim has an asterisk, and it is a fair one.\u003c\/strong\u003e Bondi Wash do not test on animals, with one exception they publish themselves: the dog range is tested on local dogs with sensitive skin. That is willing pets in their own homes rather than a laboratory, and we would rather show you the sentence than pretend it is not there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere we would like more.\u003c\/strong\u003e The ingredient list is written by category rather than itemised: plant-derived surfactants, Australian bush oils, essential oils, food grade preservatives. Bondi Wash name every single oil on their baby wash, so they clearly can. On something going onto an animal's skin we would like the same, and Transparency scores 3 until it happens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe bottle is fully recyclable.\u003c\/strong\u003e That is Bondi Wash's stated packaging position across the range.
