"Here is my beautiful girl Bella. She is nearly 11 years old, a gorgeous springer spaniel and sadly like many dogs she has some age related conditions. Bella has been using Palmidol PEA as a part of her multimodal management for just over 3 weeks now. Since starting Palmidol there has been noticeable change in Bella's behaviour. She has become livelier, engaging and socialising more with the family, as well as picking up her toys more again and carrying them around, which is so lovely to see. Overall she became more interested in her surroundings again! I am a vet, and at first I was not sure what to expect, but I am very happy with the way Bella responded to Palmidol so far, and there were no side effects at all! If you also have a dog with an age related condition, I do feel it is worth chatting to your vet about introducing Palmidol into your dog's wellbeing management plan."

Here is a photo my sprocker Olly, he is 11
Since starting him on Palmidol PEA he is a different dog, he's runs round the garden every morning like a puppy with his younger brother! He seems much more comfortable and generally more happy. He has arthritis in fore limbs and hind limbs and has monthly injection of Librella.

'Her name is Winnie and she's 3 years old. I noticed that the left side of her nose was quite dry and cracked but unsure as to why? I tried Sensiderm Balm and within a couple of days I could see that it was already making a difference. I simply applied a tiny amount to her nose once a day and even after some got licked off, it still did the job and within a week her nose was beautiful again!"

"Perfect for Our Staffy!
We recently bathed our Staffy, Max, with Sensiderm Shampoo, and the experience was nothing short of delightful! The shampoo not only lathered up effortlessly but also rinsed out quickly— a major plus as many shampoos are overly bubbly, especially when your dog is eager to escape the bath! After drying, Max's coat was incredibly shiny and smooth. We always opt for gentle, fragrance-free shampoos since he licks his feet often, and Sensiderm was the perfect choice. It's our first time using it, and we are definitely impressed!"

"We have recently been using Sensiderm Omega from Samaxia, as recommended by our Vet as our dog Sid experienced an Auto Immune issue resulting in a lot of hair loss. Sid's always been a very fussy eater so I was a little nervous adding something into his food, but he absolutely loves it, and since using the Sensiderm Omega, I've seen a massive improvement in the re-growth of his hair, and he's actually gained some weight due to the increased appetite that he seems to have. I also use the Keratoderm Shampoo, which has really improved the condition of his skin and the Honeyderm is a fantastic balm that has worked wonders on any sore patches. I can highly recommend the products from Samaxia, and I will continue to use them."

"I recently used Sensiderm shampoo on my 13 year old Border Terrier Poppy as she likes to roll in anything smelly. It lathered nicely with the small amount of shampoo I applied and she was more tolerant of this than usual. Personally I can get a patch of eczema on my hands with certain products but Sensiderm was soothing on my skin and definitely non irritating.
It was very easy to rinse off and afterwards left her with a clean, smell free coat as there was no overpowering fragrance. I would definitely use Sensiderm shampoo again as it was easy to use and in my opinion an excellent product for my dog."

"I am really pleased with the results I have seen using Samaxia Ltd's Sensiderm shampoo and spray for my pony who has sweet itch. I have tried lots of products, but since using Sensiderm I have noticed a visible reduction in itching, scurf and skin thickening. The Skin Barrier Protect technology lasts for ages, and the spray is easy to apply, light and non-greasy. As a small animal vet, I am looking forward to seeing the results in my canine and feline patients! "

“I've seen remarkable results with Keratoderm Shampoo, in a patient with a very severe paw pad hyperkeratosis. His condition was so severe that make him very painful and reluctant to walks. After just a few weeks, the improvement in his paw pads were so profound, with a significant reduction of the thickening and discomfort, enhancing his overall wellbeing. Inspired by this success, I now recommend Keratoderm Shampoo regularly in my clinics. It's a new weapon to control keratinisation disorders in our patients!”

Here's Mags, one of the pets from the team at 'Vets for Pets - Oadby' having a little 'pamper' with some Sensiderm Balm being applied to her nose and paws.
Mags was a little star, loving having the Sensiderm applied with no resistance, illustrating its overall acceptance to pets due to no added fragrances and non-greasy effect whilst also being effective in soothing and protecting the skin. Sensiderm Balm is a must-have for every veterinary practice and pet owner as it offers a gentle yet powerful option for common pet skin issues including dry and crusty noses, pads and paw!!

“I've been really impressed with the palatability of Sensiderm Omega. My own dog is fussy, and he's been eating the liquid without fail. There's a huge bonus that despite being meat flavoured, Sensiderm Omega is protein free so great for dogs who could have food allergies.”

'I had been using Keratoderm in my mum's dog prior to him being PTS. He was quite dandruffy, worked well and did reduce the scale.
I've used the Sensiderm Balm quite a bit when my dog had sloughed a bit of his paw pad off and it worked great keeping things soft alongside his boots.
I've also used the Honeyderm Balm and the Sensiderm Spray for a couple of scraps and grazes and things healed nicely.'

"The Sensiderm spray has been amazing. I have been using it on my Chihuahua, since Christmas 2023. We go for a lot of muddy walks in the forest and as such Sophie needs a bath/wash down after. I found her coat was becoming dry and wire-like. When parting the fur it was also a little red and she was itchy. I was recommended Sensiderm spray. Within a few days of using it her coat was shiny and soft but most importantly no more itchiness!"

“So we have tried moisturiser and paw balm, Lilly has not yet complained, very happy to have both applied even on very sore skin. Moisturiser soaks in well, not noticing any scent with the products which is good as Lilly comes to have it applied rather than chasing to catch her. Also she has not had the urge to lick it off, which is also good. Leaves skin feeling soft and supple and not sticky. I will be able to give a better review when she gets into full allergy season but thumbs up so far.”
Lilly's Pet Parent from Leeds
“Cream is working well. One of my colleagues has started to use it on her Rottweiler's bald patches on her joints (pressure point areas on hock/metatarsal area) and reports that there is new hair growth in these areas so cream is definitely helping her skin! I'm sure we will be both be placing another order soon.”

“We have been using the Honeyderm both on his paws (as if he walks or play for longer they become sore and he chews them) and on his groin area. On the paws the Honeyderm works really great. The only minor downside is that it is very thick so you need to warm it up before using it otherwise a lot goes wasted."

“We have found Pyoskin Wipes to be highly effective and well-tolerated by pets. They have a mild scent, cause minimal irritation, and the cotton material is an eco-friendly choice. We confidently recommend them to pet owners too."

“Sensiderm balm is such a wonderful product and really fills a gap in the market. I have used it on my very sensitive labrador following a spinal incident which led to sore cracked paws, the balm gave her instant relief and healed them within a couple of applications.
The honey is a brilliant alternative to the more traditional honey, the gentle scent (essential lavender oil) reduces patient interest in licking at it and have successfully used it in a herd of guinea pigs and worked a treat! I would 100% recommend these products to everyone. The products are unique, fairly priced and a credit to Sam and Max.”

Sensiderm Spray: Does the job, well....
This spray is easy to use and a good option for pets with sensitive skin. I like that it doesn’t have a strong scent, so my dog doesn’t react to it the way he has with some fragranced products. It sprays evenly, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave behind any greasy residue, which makes it simple to apply without a fuss. I’ve noticed that it helps calm down mild irritation and dryness, especially on spots that tend to get itchy.
Keratoderm Shampoo: "Good thinner mixture, nice smell and lathers lovely!...
Smells lovely and it quite thin which I prefer in a dog shampoo as waiting for the thicker stuff to run out whilst your dog is also trying to run out can get tiresome, so a good thinner shampoo is welcomed.
This also lathers up nicely and so far working well on my shihtzu which currently has a very itchy flaky body (going through testing to see if it’s diet, environment or ear infection related) in the meantime this shampoo is helping soothe the skin whilst the steroids are keeping the symptoms at bay.
Also works good in the shampoo foamer
Keratoderm Shampoo: "Great shampoo for problem skin!"...
This shampoo comes in a tube containg 200mls.
It appears to be a good quality product, although a lot of the information is in another language.
I just applied it in the usual way, making sure to avoid the eyes and mouth.
It lathered up well and went on easily.
There was a faint scent but nothing overpowering.
I paid particular attention to my dog's paws as he's suffering from a yeast build up.
The write up said it was particularly useful for this, as it helps deal with skin prone to microbial overgrowth. It also supports skin balance and restores a healthy skin barrier.
It's non-irritating and non-drying, and the mild base means it doesn't strip essential oils, making it ideal for regular use.
My Staffy's paws have been a bit sore and crusty, with that cheesy doritos smell, that usually indicates a yeast flare up!
The shampoo seemed to be really gentle and nourishing, and the results are looking promising so far. I thinks it's helped to relieve the endless cycle of itching, and it doesn't seem to have caused any extra irritation. The skin/hair on his body was a bit greasy and that's shown real improvement. It's much cleaner, and looks and feels healthy again.
I'm hoping the results will keep getting better with continued use, but I'm impressed so far.
It's quite expensive, but it's a decent sized tube, and way cheaper than a visit to the Vet's! If it keeps helping, it's definitely value for money.
Obviously, if you're concerned about your dog, you should take them to the vets though!
I have already been, but the prescribed treatments seemed to make things worse, so I was desperate to try anything that might help.
I'll carry on using this and update if I have any relevant new information.
Keratoderm Shampoo:" Nice shampoo for dogs."...
Rubs up into a nice foam. Good smell and washed out easily. Seems to have reduced to irritation on my dogs tummy
Keratoderm shampoo: "Good quality shampoo for irritated skin"...
I ordered this shampoo as my dog is crossed with a hairless breed, and due to this has areas that has no hair and very sensitive skin. He suffers with dryness and gets oil filled pores in the same areas. Very difficult to keep on top of!
The ingredients look to be good and with a quick search, this brand appears to be trustworthy and good quality.
The shampoo arrived sealed and has a light fragrance, typical of other dog shampoos that I've used previously. I lathered this up on my dog and left for 5 minutes as instructed (it was fun trying to keep him occupied during this time) then rinsed it off.
He was clean and fresh and his hair was normal to brush. His irritation appears to be slightly improved but I expect better results over continued use. I'll update my review when he's had a few more washes but it's looking promising.
Keratoderm Shampoo: "Great shampoo to avoid aggravating sensitive skin"...
I tried this on my cat who tends to get a greasy coat, and it made a noticeable difference after just a few washes. It foams enough to clean properly but isn’t harsh, and her fur stayed fresher for longer than usual. The flaky skin has also improved, which makes grooming a lot easier. There is a subtle and inoffensive smell.
The packaging is practical and doesn’t leak, which is something I always look out for with pet shampoos. It’s a specialist product, but I’m glad I picked it up because it actually works.
Sensiderm Shampoo: "Worked really well for my cats"...
I got this for my two cats who have sensitive skin. It’s gentle, no strong smell, and easy to use. After applying it, their fur looked clean and fresh, and their skin seems calmer too. Handy tube and no leaks either, so I’m happy with it.
Sensiderm Shampoo: "Worked really well for my cats"...
This was for a family member’s cat who struggles with sensitive skin, and I wanted something that wouldn’t make things worse. The shampoo is fragrance-free, which I think is a good choice for pets prone to irritation. It lathers lightly and rinses out fairly easily, which is important when dealing with a cat who isn’t exactly thrilled about bath time.
After a couple of washes, the skin does seem calmer and the coat feels softer, without any dryness or itching afterwards. It’s not a miracle fix, but it does its job well enough and doesn’t cause flare-ups, which is the main thing.
The tube feels sturdy and hasn’t leaked, even when knocked about a bit in the cupboard, so that’s a plus. At 200ml it’s not a huge amount, so if you’ve got a larger dog you’ll probably get through it quite quickly, but for cats or smaller pets it lasts reasonably well.
Price-wise, it is a little on the expensive side for the size, but I think it’s fair if you need something specifically gentle and reliable. A pump bottle would make it easier to use with one hand, but that’s a small improvement suggestion.
Overall, a well-made, trustworthy shampoo that keeps things simple and safe for pets with sensitive skin.
Sensiderm Balm: "Gentle, Soothing and Effective Cream for Crusted Noses"...
My West Highland Terrier has a hard, crusty nose which may be due to a combination of sun exposure and rubbing her face into hard ground and grass, something she just loves to do. I've used other balms and creams but this one is specifically designed to treat the condition, and it's used by vets. It's very light and odourless. Only a minuscule amount is needed to treat the area. It absorbs quickly into her nose and settles into the cracked skin to get to work. Although she does lick a little afterwards, it doesn't come off. It must feel soothing, and I think, because it has no fragrance, the temptation to taste it simply isn't there. She doesn't mind me applying it and she doesn't try to remove it. I'm really happy with this product. It's so kind and gentle. It's working to soften and hydrate her dry nose and as the use by date is a year away, it will last long enough to see her through the summer and over the winter too to treat both nose and paws.
Sensiderm Balm: "Paw-some relief in a tube!"...
This balm is a game-changer for itchy, rough paws! My dog’s allergy flare-ups left her biting and chewing constantly, but after just a couple of uses, her paws are softer, calmer, and much happier.
It moisturizes with shea butter, soothes redness and itch, and has two bonus perks: it’s non-greasy (no slipping or frantic sock-chasing before the zoomies) and lick-safe (phew!).
The tube is small and a bit pricey at £17, but a little goes a long way, making it last. Perfect for paws, noses, or any irritated spots.
If your dog has rough skin, redness, or just needs some TLC, this balm is paws-itively perfect for everyday care and flare-ups alike!
Sensiderm Balm: "Good to keep in!"...
This has been put in my dog's first aid kit.. Occasionally, she will have an itchy spot, but none at the moment, so it's good to have it in. We have just had a heatwave with lots of sun, but no more now, so at least if the sun comes out again, I will have this to put on her nose to protect it.
Sensiderm Balm: "Very effective option for dry spots"...
We've been using this for a few weeks now, and I am impressed with the results for helping with dry spots on the dog and it's definitely effective and seems to be lick proof so far. I’ve been using this balm on my dog’s paws and nose, and it really does help with dryness. It goes on smoothly and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feel, which makes it easy to apply without him slipping around. I like that it’s safe if he licks it, so I don’t have to worry after applying. After a few days of use, I noticed his pads looked softer and less cracked. The tube is a good size for carrying around too, so it’s handy when we’re out and about.
