Frequently Asked Questions

We currently offer two luxury grooming ranges: Mr Dudley’s No-Nonsense Range (Crisp Linen fragrance) and Lady Lucia’s Love Potion Range (Cashmere Powder fragrance). Each range includes a Shampoo, a Dry/Waterless Shampoo, and a Post-Groom or Leave-In Coat Spray.

Mr Dudley’s No-Nonsense Range is all business — crisp, clean and utterly no-fuss. Fragrance: Crisp Linen. Built for dogs with high standards and questionable behaviour.

Lady Lucia’s Love Potion Range is glamour in a bottle — soft, luxurious and impeccably presented. Fragrance: Cashmere Powder. Built for dogs who believe presentation matters.

Both ranges share the same core hypoallergenic, prebiotic formulation. The difference is personality — and fragrance.

Yes — every product in our range is suitable for all breeds and coat types. Our formulations are hypoallergenic and gentle enough for regular use, including dogs with sensitive skin.

All products are formulated for regular use. The shampoos are gentle enough for frequent bathing. The dry/waterless shampoos and sprays can be used between washes as needed — they’re designed to refresh, not overwhelm.

Never. All House of Filthy Animal products are cruelty free. We’re inspired by real dogs and made for real dogs — testing on them in anything other than a loving grooming session is not something we’d entertain.

Mr Dudley’s No-Nonsense Range — Crisp Linen. Clean, fresh and appropriately no-nonsense.

Lady Lucia’s Love Potion Range — Cashmere Powder. Soft, warm and suspiciously expensive-smelling.

Every product in our range is built on the same core formulation:

• Prebiotic Complex — supports the skin’s natural microbiome for lasting odour control
• Aloe Vera — soothes and conditions the skin and coat
• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) — strengthens and softens the coat
• Vitamin E — nourishes and protects
• Essential Oils — naturally derived scent, no synthetic nasties
• Coconut-Derived Cleansers (shampoos only) — gentle, effective cleansing

Prebiotics support the skin’s natural microbiome — the ecosystem of beneficial bacteria that keep skin healthy, balanced and comfortable. Rather than simply masking odours, our Prebiotic Complex works with your dog’s skin to help neutralise the source of unwanted smells. The result is genuine odour control, not just fragrance layering.

Yes. All products are formulated to be hypoallergenic — free from harsh chemicals, unnecessary irritants and overpowering synthetic fragrances. They are suitable for dogs with sensitive skin, though we always recommend a patch test if your dog has known allergies or skin conditions.

Our fragrances are composed using Essential Oils and fragrance compounds that meet cosmetic safety standards. We do not use overpowering synthetic perfumes. The goal is a clean, considered scent — not a dog that smells like a duty-free counter.

All House of Filthy Animal products are Made in the UK. Standards must be maintained.

Our formulations are hypoallergenic and use gentle, skin-friendly ingredients. However, we always recommend consulting your vet before using any grooming product on a puppy under 8 weeks, or a puppy with known skin sensitivities. When in doubt, ask the vet — not the internet.

House of Filthy Animal was founded by Sarah, lifelong dog lover, professional overthinker and full-time servant to a wonderfully dysfunctional pack of dogs.

Like so many owners, we've spent years battling itchy skin, allergies, mystery rashes, suspicious smells and the sort of scratching that makes you wonder if your dog is trying to dig their way to Australia.

After one too many disappointing products, we decided enough was enough.

Every product is inspired by a real member of our gloriously chaotic family. Mr Dudley (AKA Kev) thinks he's royalty. Lady Lucia believes every room is a catwalk. Eric specialises in impeccable comic timing. Betty is basically a tiny dermatology patient. Dee Dee has never met a muddy puddle she didn't like.

If your dog sheds on your sofa, rolls in fox poo five minutes after a bath or has skin that needs a little extra TLC... congratulations, you've found your people.

Because dogs are, occasionally, exactly that — and we love them for it. The name is a nod to the real, muddy, chaotic, devoted nature of dogs and the people who adore them. We’re not pretending otherwise. We’re just making sure they smell impeccable when it matters.

Currently our products are available exclusively through our online store at filthyanimal.uk. If you’re interested in stocking our products, please reach out to us at woof@filthyanimal.uk.

The best way to reach us is by email: woof@filthyanimal.uk. We aim to respond within 1–2 business days. Standards must be maintained — including response times.

Not yet — but watch this space. We’re always working on ways to reward the kind of dog owner who takes standards seriously. Join our mailing list to be first to know.
