Frankie may be cute, but he’s not exactly low-maintenance.
When you have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, you know that keeping their coat soft, tangle-free, and smelling good is basically a part-time job. After testing a bunch of grooming products, we’ve finally found our go-to pair:
✨ Isle of Dogs Coature No. 10 Evening Primrose Oil Shampoo
Frankie has sensitive skin, so we’re careful about what we use. This shampoo is super gentle and made with evening primrose oil, which helps soothe dry or itchy spots. It lathers nicely, rinses clean, and leaves him smelling fresh—but not overpowering. The scent is light and clean, which we love.
We also like that it’s concentrated, so a little goes a long way. (Pro tip: we dilute it with water and let it sit on his coat for a couple of minutes before rinsing.)
- Evening Primrose Oil for relief of dry skin and itchiness
- gentle cleansers for safe weekly use
- delicious scent for long-lasting freshness
💧 Isle of Dogs Coature No. 51 Heavy Management Conditioner
This conditioner is the secret sauce. After his bath, we work this through Frankie’s coat—especially around his ears, belly, and chest where tangles love to hide. It makes brushing afterward so much easier and helps keep his coat looking smooth and silky between washes.
It’s thick enough to do the job but doesn’t leave any greasy or heavy residue. Just a soft, manageable coat and a very happy pup.
- Seals the cuticle to prevent damage
- Formulated for luxurious softness
- Highly recommended second step in grooming process
