As the population ages, the number of households raising companion animals is increasing. Companion animal industry has recently been diversified through a combination of various industries such as beauty, rest, and insurance, and the share of this industry in the economy is gradually increasing. Dandruid keratoses, ticks, and various pathogenic bacteria are parasitized on the skin and hair of a dog to damage the hair and cause skin diseases. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of natural ingredients on the oil and moisture content of dog skin when using natural shampoos and using these shampoos. In this study, we measured the water content of four poodles of 1 year and 4 years old. The natural shampoo used in 4 rats was prepared and used directly. The results of this study showed that the water content in the forelimb of the experimental dog was almost unchanged when using the ordinary shampoo, but it increased with the use of the natural shampoo. Especially, when using natural shampoo for 3 weeks, it was confirmed that the water content of ordinary shampoo increased about 55.71% over 3 weeks. On the other hand, when using a general shampoo, the water content of the neck of the experimental dog was almost unchanged, and even when using the natural shampoo, the moisture content was almost unchanged. These results suggest that natural shampoos will have a better effect on maintaining the moisture content of companion animals compared to ordinary shampoos.
