Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! There are parts of the Aloe Vera plant that is toxic to animals. If the shampoo is made for dogs and cats it should be fine for puppies. If you are unsure then use an oatmeal based shampoo or just use Dawn dish soap. I hope this helps!
