care goes beyond the routine.
we believe caring for dogs means caring about everything that touches their lives — from the ingredients in their grooming products to the materials we use, the impact we leave behind, and the dogs in our community who still need a home.
that's why we've chosen to hold lil luv dog to standards that go beyond what's required.
(01) pet care deserves a higher standard
because what's in their products matters.
pet grooming products aren't held to the same standards consumers have come to expect from their own personal care. terms like “clean,” “natural,” and “gentle” can mean different things from brand to brand, leaving pet parents to figure out what's actually inside the products they use on their dogs.
we didn't think that was good enough.
from the beginning, lil luv dog was built around greater transparency, thoughtful formulation, and independent standards — because dogs deserve products made specifically with them in mind.
(02) why EWG Verified®
we didn't want to define “clean” for ourselves.
instead of creating our own definition of clean, we looked to an independent standard.
EWG Verified® requires ingredient transparency and screens formulas against strict criteria for ingredient safety. when EWG introduced its first pet grooming category in 2025, lil luv dog was the brand they launched it with.
for us, the mark is more than a certification. it's independent
accountability behind the choices we make — and one less thing for pet parents to have to figure out on their own.

(03) the lil luv dog blacklist
what we leave out matters, too.
our formulas begin with a simple question: does this ingredient need to be here?
we carefully consider every ingredient we use and avoid ingredients that don't meet our standards for safety, function, and transparency. our formulas meet EWG Verified® criteria, and we've created the lil luv blacklist to make it easy to see what you'll never intentionally find in our products.
(04) better choices, at every step
climate label certified
we chose independent accountability for our environmental commitments, too.
lil luv dog is certified by The Climate Label, which recognizes brands that measure their full carbon footprint annually, commit to reduction plans, and contribute to the transition toward a lower-carbon future.
for us, sustainability isn't a one-time claim. it's something we measure, revisit, and work to improve.
materials matter
we look for ways to reduce unnecessary waste and incorporate lower-impact materials throughout our products and packaging.
(05) care beyond our products
a lil luv can have a big impact.
care doesn't stop with our own dogs.
we're proud to partner with Wags & Walks, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to reduce euthanasia through rescue, foster, adoption, and community programs.
with every purchase, a portion of lil luv dog sales helps support their work caring for dogs in need and helping them find their forever homes.

because giving back isn't an initiative for us. it's part of what caring for dogs means.
our commitment
we'll keep doing better.
care isn't a finish line.
as research evolves, better materials become available, and our company grows, we'll keep asking questions, measuring our impact, and looking for ways to improve.
better formulas. better materials. better choices for dogs, people, and the planet.
that's our pawprint.
