Essential Oils for Dogs

We use essential oils for ourselves - don't we want the best non toxic options for our furry friends too?! Here are some natural remedies just in time for flea and tick season!

• Natural Flea & Tick Collar Recipe: Mix oils together and create your own repellents! You can play and see what works for you. Lemongrass, Eucalyptus, Cedarwood, and Peppermint oils are all great choices. Place 4 drops around your dogs collar, and repeat weekly. Geranium oil has been said to help with ticks and has calming properties. Why not have it serve multiple purposes?
•  Add 1-2 drops of essential oil diluted with at least 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, and rub in the base of your dog’s tail for extra bug repellent.
• Our organic dog soap can be custom scented with essential oils! We can add bug repellent oils to help combat flea season. Also, lavender is great for calming itchy dry skin and is also safe for puppies.
• After a tick removal, put lavender oil on the area immediately to help disinfect and heal the wound.
• Tea Tree oil mixed with a carrier oil can be rubbed on hot spots to help disinfect and heal the wound.
• Essential oils can be toxic to cats and other animals, so do your research before jumping in. Our essentials are therapeutic grade, and extremely concentrated. A little goes a long way!
