Lower scores indicate a lower hazard rating: 1–2 Low 3–6 Moderate 7–10 High The rating is a useful reference point, but it is not a complete safety assessment. It does not take into account factors such as concentration, exposure or individual sensitivity. Lupito considers EWG information alongside other relevant research and safety information when selection ingredients for our dog-care formulations.
