Does your beloved Blissful Dog have a dry, cracked, basically yukky nose! We cannot have your little darling out and about with an unattractive nose.

Once upon a time, in a land so far far away, Minnesota, I mixed a batch of pure, unrefined Shea Butter with some and slathered it on my poor dry summer feet and legs. I trotted into my office and sat down in front of my trusty Mac. The next thing I knew a horde of leg licking, toe tickling French Bulldogs were attacking every inch that had been buttered! It tickled so, yet felt strangely good, hmmm, I digress. Anyway, the creaky wheels began to turn and the light bulb popped on! "Hey, I bet this would be good for their noses!" I exclaimed!

Before you could say greased Frenchie, I had added some Vitamin E Oil, homeopathic Trauma Oil® and a dash of Blissful Dog Vibrational Essences (just for extra love) and I was buttering up every nose I saw. Even the ones that loathe having anything done to them ran forward to get buttered up. THEY LOVED IT!

Ok, what exactly IS Shea Butter? If one is going to slather a substance all over their beloved dog's nose, one MUST know what it IS.

SHEA BUTTER is made from the fruit of the Karite (Shea) Tree that grows in West Central Africa. This tree is grown without the use of ANY chemical pesticides and is 100% organic. Living up to two centuries, the Shea Tree is fruitful after 15 years and has peak production at 25 years. Before the Shea Nuts are collected to prepare shea butter, a prayer is said, as has been the practice for hundreds of years in Ghana.

Its skin smoothing benefits are legendary and have recently been discovered by people outside the continent of Africa. Hair care, body care, soaps, lotions, body butters and now (drum roll please) FRENCHIE NOSE BUTTER are all made from this fabulous nut. We use only unrefined Shea Butter!

TYPES OF SHEA BUTTER:

UNREFINED: Pure, straight from nature, YES!

REFINED: bleached but has some of it's original components intact. Wimpy!

PROCESSED/INDUSTRIALIZED: Stripped of its natural components. Non natural components like hexane is added to yield more shea butter. YUKKY!

FAKE SHEA BUTTER:  Hard,  green or some odd color, smells off, is mixed with various ingredients. An atrocity!
