In fact, many pet shampoos share that pH range with human shampoos. There are, however, good reasons to use a good pet shampoo on dogs: Shampoos formulated for canine hair are designed to clean well and are often geared toward specific jobs or coat types. Human shampoos are designed for daily or weekly use and may not clean a dirty dog well. They are also mostly formulated to soften hair, which may not be desirable when scissoring a Bichon or maintaining a terrier coat. Human hair shampoos are less likely to have ingredients for whitening, promoting deshedding, or serious deodorizing. So, basically, it seems to be safe, but it may not be the most effective type of shampoo for your dog’s coat (you may need to wash him several times with human shampoo to get him clean, or a dog shampoo may contain whiteners that will make him look better). Personally… I absolutely HATE dog shampoos. Not only are they very expensive but have very strong smells, I admit I’m very sensitive to smells but that’s nothing comparing to what the dog is smelling.
