At the heart of our mission is Angela Ardolino, a renowned holistic pet expert with over 20 years of experience caring for animals. Angela’s passion for helping pets with natural plant & fungi medicine stems from her years running Beautify the Beast, a grooming and boarding salon, and Fire Flake Farm, her animal rescue farm. During this time, she worked with countless dogs suffering from allergies, itchy skin, and other chronic conditions caused by harsh grooming products and poor nutrition.
Angela saw firsthand how many grooming products on the market—packed with synthetic chemicals, detergents, and artificial fragrances—exacerbated skin issues and disrupted the delicate skin microbiome. Inspired by the pets she cared for, she set out to create a better solution: natural grooming products infused with the power of Full Spectrum Hemp Extract.
Her years of research and collaboration with veterinarians helped her understand how hemp’s anti-inflammatory, soothing, and healing properties could transform skin and coat health. The result? Replenish Hemp Dog Shampoo and Restore Hemp Groom Spray, two natural grooming products that reflect Angela’s commitment to clean, safe, and effective grooming solutions for our pets.
The two dogs featured on the product labels, Jolene and Rhemi, are Angela’s own beloved companions, who inspired her to create these products with love and care. As she often says, “If it’s not safe enough for my dogs, it’s not good enough for yours.”
Angela’s years of experience taught her that holistic pet care starts with healthy skin and a balanced microbiome. With these natural grooming products, she hopes to empower pet parents to support their dogs naturally, without harmful chemicals, and provide relief for issues like itching, dryness, and irritation.
