What should dog owners know about Colorant?

Clean Wise evaluates Colorant by the published ingredient reference and its dog-exposure sub-scores. Those scores help describe expected concern around paws, licking, breathing and age groups; they do not make a universal “safe” or “unsafe” claim for every concentration, product or use.

What this means for your dog

Plain-language read of the sub-scores above.

  • Around puppiesUse with normal caution around puppies — follow label directions and keep them out of the room during use.
  • Around pawsRinse or wipe surfaces and let them dry fully before your dog walks on them.
  • If lickedKeep dogs off freshly cleaned surfaces until dry, and store the bottle out of reach.
