Is Kurgo vegan?

Unconfirmed — the only Kurgo product we score has no vegan certification or ingredient record yet.

Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.

How to check this yourself

A vegan claim covers ingredients and materials, not testing. To confirm a specific product:

  1. Look for a registered vegan mark (Vegan Society, Vegan Action or V-Label) on the exact product, not only on the brand's website.
  2. Read the full ingredient or material list for beeswax, lanolin, carmine, shellac, collagen, silk, wool, down and leather.
  3. Check that colours, glues and finishes are covered too — they are where animal-derived inputs most often hide.
