Can I use any dog shampoo with the RapidBath® unit?
Only the specially formulated RapidBath® shampoo cartridges work with the RapidBath® system since the system requires the shampoo to be highly concentrated. To ensure your satisfaction with the RapidBath® shampoos, they have been formulated to contain only the finest skin and coat conditioners and a professional grade, naturally derived, cleaning product.

How many baths with a shampoo cartridge last?
That’s a difficult question since dogs can vary tremendously in size, coat length and thickness, and how dirty your dog is – not to mention what the water pressure is at your house. On average, you will be able to bathe a standard Golden Retriever two times per cartridge. Smaller dogs may get five baths per cartridge, while an English Sheepdog that just rolled around in the mud might require an entire cartridge.

Does the RapidBath® system really clean down to the skin?
Yes, the finger like projections of soap, water, and oxygen will penetrate down to the skin and since this is an “active clean”, the dirt, dander, and debris is driven off your pet. Make certain you hold the devise at a 45 degree angle against the grain of the coat. You will be able to see your pets skin as you bathe when done properly.

How often should my pet be bathed?
That will vary based on breed, but on average, every 2 – 4 week. Check with your veterinarian for specifics on your animals. Make certain you always use high quality shampoos, such as those sold for use with the RapidBath® system. Less expensive shampoos frequently use harsher cleaning agents which can strip away essential oils from your pets coat and tend to use fewer skin and coat care ingredients. Also, the RapidBath® system is great for quick bathing after your pet has been in the pool or at the beach, as well as for bathing between grooming visits.

I have a low flow showerhead, will the water pressure be enough to work with the RapidBath® system?
While your shower head may have low pressue, the water source behind the showerhead probably has a significantly higher water pressure. The RapidBath® unit will connect between the two, so while your showerhead will remain low flow, your Rapidbath® unit will be receiving plenty of water pressure.

What can you tell me about the fragrance of the shampoo?
We tested over 100 different fragrances with dog owners all over the country. While opinions varied, it was virtually unanimous that everyone wants their pet to smell fresh and clean. The fragrance we selected will provide that desired result, with just a hint of botanicals.

Why is there no flea and tick shampoo available?
The RapidBath® system uses extremely highly concentrated shampoo. The chemical ingredient in common flea and tick shampoo should not be that concentrated and so for safety, we do not offer a Flea and Tick shampoo for use with the devise. However, flea and tick shampoo works best on a clean animal and flea and tick shampoo should not be used for cleaning purposes. Use your RapidBath® device to quickly and safely clean your pet, then hand apply the flea and tick shampoo. Then use your RapidBath® system to make quick work out of rinsing your pet!
