What if my dog tries to lick it off?
Dermacton contains no harmful ingredients, though obviously you need to stop your dog licking as much as possible so that the spray stays on to work effectively. The ingredients in the Dermacton will naturally deter most dogs from licking, however if your dog is a persistent licker it may be useful to apply it prior to them being distracted eg prior to a walk, play or feeding, and rub it well in. As long as it gets a few minutes to soak in, it will start working.
Is the spray better than the cream?
Both the spray and cream contain the same Dermacton formula, and both work as well as each other. Whilst some of it is personal preference, PetNat generally recommend the cream when there is hair loss or thickened skin or for small isolated areas, and the spray when there is more coat or to cover larger areas.
