Leucillin Antiseptic Spray
Leucillin Antiseptic Spray
Most things in the kit bag are for the dog.
This one's for everyone.
Dog comes back through the hedge with a scratch. Handler catches a wire fence on the way through. Someone's kid grazes their knee at the shoot. Darren gets a sore throat mid-week. Same bottle. Every time.
That's not a claim - that's just what Leucillin is. It's been given human-grade approval. The active ingredient, Hypochlorous acid, is the same chemical your own white blood cells produce to fight infection. It's not foreign to the body. It's already in there, doing exactly this job. Leucillin just puts it in a bottle.
What it is and why it works
Hypochlorous acid - HOCl - is what your immune system reaches for when it detects a threat. Leucillin replicates that, at a concentration that kills up to 99.99999% of germs on contact. Not 99.9%. Seven nines. The difference between them is not trivial.
It's antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal. It doesn't sting. It doesn't damage healthy tissue while it deals with the bad. It doesn't need rinsing off. Safe on eyes, ears, sensitive skin. Safe if ingested - by a dog who licks a treated wound, or a handler who uses it on a sore throat.
No steroids. No antibiotics. No alcohol. Nothing it shouldn't have near skin.
The body doesn't fight it. It recognises it.
Not just for dogs
Most antiseptics sold in the gundog market are animal products used on animals. Leucillin has human-grade approval. Darren uses it on himself - sore throats included. We use it on everything and everyone at Kirkbourne. Dogs, handlers, the lot.
That's a different kind of confidence in a product. You don't reach for something on your own sore throat unless you'd actually trust it.
The Kirkbourne favourite - the 60ml
Small enough for a game bag pocket. A jacket pocket. The glovebox. A first aid kit.
The 60ml is the one we reach for. It's with you when something happens - not sitting at home when you need it. If you only buy one size, make it that one.
Which size is right for you?
60ml - Kirkbourne's pick. Game bag, jacket pocket, car, field kit. Always on you.
50ml (flush spout) - Different nozzle. Designed for flushing wounds - deeper cuts, ears, anywhere you need the solution to get properly into the site, not just on the surface.
150ml / 250ml - Home, kennel, yard. The everyday bottle.
500ml - Utility size. Kennels, regular training, anywhere you get through it quickly. Goes further than you'd expect.
