Iv San Bernard Green Apple Conditioner | Long & Curly Coat Dogs | Detangling & Moisture

Shampooing alone is not enough to maintain a long or curly coat in good condition. After washing, the hair shaft needs moisture and emollients restored — without them, long coats dry out between baths, knots form faster, and brushing becomes harder on both the coat and the dog.

The Iv San Bernard Green Apple Conditioner (Mela Verde) is the dedicated conditioning step in the ISB Green Apple bath routine, formulated specifically for long-coated breeds. Its natural coco-oil-based formula penetrates the hair shaft to restore moisture and lipid balance, softening the coat and dissolving even difficult tangles so they can be removed without pulling. With added menthol, it also supports scalp circulation — beneficial for coat health over time.

What it does:

✔ Deeply conditions the hair shaft — restores moisture and lipid balance lost during washing
✔ Dissolves difficult tangles in long and curly coats — reduces brushing resistance and coat stress
✔ Reduces static electricity and frizz — leaves the coat smooth and manageable after drying
✔ Increases shine and volume without heaviness or product build-up
✔ Menthol promotes blood circulation at the scalp — supports healthy coat growth
✔ Over 90% biodegradable — professionally formulated in Italy by Iv San Bernard

How to Use

Apply after rinsing the Green Apple Shampoo. Work the conditioner gently into the coat, massaging from root to tip for approximately 3 minutes. For additional deep conditioning, a small amount can be left in the coat. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Dilute 1 part conditioner to 3 parts water for standard use.

Why We Selected It

The ISB Green Apple line is a coat-type-specific system, not a general-purpose range. The conditioner is formulated to work in direct continuation of the Green Apple Shampoo — together they address the two-step need of long coats: cleanse and restore. We stock both products because using the shampoo without the conditioner leaves the routine incomplete, particularly for breeds that are prone to dry coats, tangles, and mat formation between grooms. The apple kernel oil extract and coco-oil-based emollients make this a substantive conditioning treatment rather than a surface-level detangler.

Iv San Bernard holds the Safe Pet Cosmetics® certification (Certificate No. 18001) — the first European pet cosmetics brand to do so.

Suitable For

Long-coated and curly-coated dogs and cats. Particularly well suited to: Poodles (Toy, Miniature, Standard), Cavapoos, Cockapoos, Labradoodles, Goldendoodles, Havanese, Shih Tzu, Coton de Tuléar, and Maltese. Also appropriate for trimmed long-coated breeds — the underlying skin and coat type remains the same regardless of clip length. Not the primary recommendation for short or smooth coats.
