At Bug & Bun, hound care is approached with the same care, intention, and restraint found in fine fragrance and premium haircare. Their Deodorising Hound Shampoo is a gentle, cosmetic-grade formula designed to properly cleanse the
coat, removing dirt, odour, and build-up at the source while maintaining hydration, balance, and coat integrity.

Thoughtfully formulated for regular use, it cleans without stripping and is suitable for all hounds, including sensitive puppers. Because the coat is left soft, nourished, and balanced, there’s no need for a separate conditioner.

Lightly scented with their signature Courageux fragrance blend, the shampoo leaves a soft, zesty aroma with aromatic woods and citrus clarity.

Gentle, cosmetic-grade ingredients selected for safety, performance and coat comfort.

Natural Botanicals
Base Notes: Cedarwood, Vetiver
Heart Notes: Rosemary, Clary Sage
Top Notes: Lemon, Bergamot
Courageux is a fresh, uplifting fragrance designed to energise while remaining grounded and wearable.
Bright citrus notes open the scent before moving into aromatic herbs and clean, green facets —balanced by warm woods that provide structure and longevity.
Crafted to sit close to the coat — clean, refined, and never overpowering.

Perfumer’s Notes
"When I created Courageux, I wanted to capture a feeling of quiet confidence — something fresh, clean and energising, yet grounded.
It’s inspired by early morning light, crisp air, and that first moment of clarity before the day begins. The brightness of citrus brings lift and energy, while aromatic herbs add a sense of structure and calm. As it settles, soft woods provide warmth and balance, creating a fragrance that feels both refreshing and composed.
Courageux is about confidence."

How is this different to my current shampoo?

Bug & Bun is an Australian Made Certified, hand-brewed, cosmetic-grade formula made with 100% dog-safe ingredients. It’s free from DEA, sulphates, phosphates, parabens and enzymes, and uses gentle, plant-derived cleansers to remove dirt, grime and odour at the source — not just mask it.

It’s suitable for all dogs (puppies to seniors), won’t strip the coat’s natural balance, and leaves the fur soft and hydrated — so there’s no need for a separate conditioner.

Are these products safe for puppies & dogs with sensitive skin?

Yes. Bug & Bun shampoo is made with 100% dog-safe, gentle, plant-derived, cosmetic-grade ingredients and is free of DEA, sulphates, phosphates, parabens and enzymes, making it suitable for all dogs including puppies and those with sensitive skin.

How do i use it?

Apply to wet coat and massage gently to create a soft lather. Rinse thoroughly. Repeat if desired.

For best results and enhanced scent layering, follow with a light application of the matchingDog Fragrance on a dry coat. Designed to complement the shampoo and extend the
fragrance experience.

Frequency of bathing depends on your dog’s breed, lifestyle, and skin condition, but a good rule of thumb is every 2–4 weeks. Bug & Bun Shampoo products are suitable regular use.

Always dry thoroughly and take the opportunity to brush or de-shed.
