In 1993 Renee adopted a 2 month old chocolate Cocker Spaniel, Avo. She found herself quickly purchasing every pet product known to man, however, she could not find a pet shampoo that did not contain a warning label, “Harmful to Humans and Domestic Animals” or that simply did not work for Avo. She began researching dog shampoo products and discovered often times the ingredients listed were not in fact in the shampoos. She also started testing pH levels in dogs and cats only to discover they were similar to humans. She found that the utilization of essential oils and plant extracts benefit pets at an even higher level than humans. When experimenting with many essential oils, Renee discovered that the combination of Tea Tree oil and Lavender oil was an excellent natural repellent for fleas, itchy skin and hot spots. Avo was a wonderful test dog! Renee was also testing the same product on herself. For human hair and scalp, this shampoo provided moisture, intense shine, body and treated oily scalps without weighing the hair down.

It was through this research and a ton of baths for Avo that Fauna: Aromatherapy Hair Care For Pets & People was born, featuring the Tea Tree Oil and Lavender Shampoo, Shea Butter & Lavender Oil conditioner, Orange Oil and Lavender Oil detangling sheen, Marigold Petals & Lavender Oil Babies shampoo (can’t leave out the puppies and babies!  All of the products, for both you AND your pet, possess active healing properties, as well as aroma therapy elements that heighten sensory stimulation, yet sooth and calm the soul leaving you and your pet with the ultimate bathing experience every time.
