The microbiome is the community of beneficial microorganisms — including bacteria, fungi and other microbes — that naturally live on your pet's skin. This ecosystem plays a vital role in maintaining skin health by acting as a protective barrier against harmful bacteria, allergens and environmental stressors that cause the most common pet skin problems. Supporting the skin’s microbiome is key to overall skin and coat health.
As the first ever pet skin care products with prebiotics and probiotics to receive this certification, Skout’s Honor continues to push innovation and technology boundaries in the pet grooming and wellness categories, providing superior solutions that support pets and their unique skin care needs.
“We have made a name for ourselves by changing what people expect from a pet product,” said Pete Stirling, CEO at Skout’s Honor. “Our probiotic and prebiotic technologies set us apart from other solutions by delivering real, science-backed results that improve pets' lives. Officially validating each product is an important step in the process. Validation gives pet parents peace of mind and the confidence that they're choosing the very best for their pet.”
Skout’s Honor’s life-changing pet essentials cover multiple product categories including Skin Care (probiotic/prebiotic grooming and wellness), Oral Care, Cleaning (plant-powered stain & odor solutions), Flea + Tick (nature-based solutions) and Training Aids.
