In which areas does Bulldog score poorly?
Unfortunately, although Bulldog has vegan-certified products, the brand receives a bottom rating for Animal Welfare. This is because Bulldog’s parent company, Edgewell Personal Care, permits animal testing when required by law. This means that despite Bulldog’s products being cruelty-free, the company it is owned by is still involved in inhumane practices towards animals.
