Using the power of essential oils to help dogs behaviour, health and wellbeing, naturally 🐾

🌟 WHAT CAN YOU USE INSTEAD OF CHEMICAL FLEA & TICK TREATMENTS? 🌟

If my last post made you feel a bit uncomfortable… I get it.

Most of us have used these products at some point.
We trusted they were safe. We were told they were safe.

This isn’t about guilt.

It’s about doing better once we know better.

Because the good news is… you have options.

You don’t have to choose between protecting your dog and risking their health.

There are gentler, more natural ways to support your dog through flea and tick season — without loading their system with harsh chemicals.

Things like:
• Supporting their immune system so they’re less attractive to pests
• Keeping their skin and coat healthy (this matters more than you think)
• Using plant-based repellents as a barrier
• Reducing the overall toxic load in and around your home

It’s a more holistic approach.
Not a “quick fix”… but a safer one.

And no, it’s not about being perfect.
It’s about making small, informed changes that add up over time.

Because every time you choose a lower-tox option…
you’re taking pressure off your dog’s body.
You’re supporting their long-term health.
Not just ticking a box for “protection.”

If you’ve been feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or even a bit scared after learning more about this…

Take a breath.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

There is a better way to protect your dog, start with using my flea and tick repellent spray (recipe in graphic).
Please be sure to use quality, 100% pure essential oils. If you need to get your hands on some reach out and I can help.

Or, alternatively, you can purchase the blend premade, ready to mix with water here

🌟 WHY I REFUSE TO USE CHEMICAL FLEA & TICK PREVENTATIVES ON MY DOGS 🌟

This might ruffle a few feathers… but I’m ok with that.

Because this matters.

I will never forget the moment I realised the very thing I trusted to "protect" my dog… is what took her from me.

Seizures.
Neurological damage.
And in some cases (like my girls)… death.

These aren’t rare, “one-off” reactions. They are documented. They are happening. And they are being brushed off as “safe when used as directed.”

Let that sink in.

We are told these products are necessary. That without them, our dogs are at risk. But no one talks about the risk of the product itself.

No one tells you that you are applying a neurotoxin.
Designed to attack the nervous system… of a living creature.

And we put it directly onto our dogs’ skin.
Or worse, into their bloodstream.

Dogs aren’t just “pests with fur.”
They are sensitive, complex beings with detox pathways that can easily become overloaded.

And when that toxic load becomes too much?

It shows up as:
• Itchy, inflamed skin
• Anxiety and behavioural changes
• Digestive issues
• Chronic illness
• Or something far more devastating

I’m not willing to take that gamble anymore.

Not when there are safer, natural ways to protect them.
Not when I’ve seen firsthand what can happen.

This isn’t about fear.
It’s about awareness.
It’s about asking questions.
And refusing to blindly trust something just because it’s common.

Your dog relies on you to make informed choices.

So before you give that next dose…
Ask yourself... at what cost?

There is another way. And your dog deserves it.

Why essential oils can be a game-changer for dogs 🐾

If you’re looking for more natural ways to support your dog’s health and wellbeing, essential oils can be a beautiful addition — when they’re used correctly.

Here’s why so many dogs benefit from them 👇

✨ They support the body naturally

Essential oils work with the body, not against it. They can help support calm behaviour, healthy skin, joints, digestion, immunity and emotional balance — without adding to your dog’s toxic load.

✨ Dogs are incredibly scent-driven

A dog’s sense of smell is far more powerful than ours. Because of this, aromatherapy can be especially effective for stress, anxiety, fear, over-arousal and emotional challenges.

✨ Gentle, not harsh

When the right oils are used at the right dilution, they’re gentle on the body while still being effective. This makes them a great option for dogs who are sensitive or don’t tolerate harsh products well.

✨ They allow dogs to self-regulate

With aromatherapy, dogs can be offered choice. Many will instinctively engage with the scents they need and move away from those they don’t — something I absolutely love about this approach.

✨ They support a low-tox lifestyle

Modern dogs are exposed to a huge number of chemicals every day. Essential oils can help reduce the overall chemical burden when used as part of a more natural, low-tox way of caring for your dog.

⚠️ Important to know:

Not all essential oils are safe for dogs, and using them incorrectly can cause harm. This is about dog-specific education, correct oils and proper use.

💚 If you’re curious but unsure where to start, learning how to use essential oils safely for dogs makes all the difference. With the right guidance, they can become a simple, effective part of caring for your dog — without overwhelm or guesswork.

🐾 Diluting Essential Oils for Dogs 🐾

When using essential oils topically on your dog, which means applying to their skin or fur, you need to dilute them first in a carrier oil.

Diluting the essential oils not only helps the dog to absorb them quicker and more effectively, but also helps limit the chance of any sensitivities or reactions.

You need to dilute even more for puppies, small dogs and when using certain oils on the Use With Caution list, like the hot oils.

💧Dilution Guidelines.
🐾For puppies and small dogs(under 10kg) use a 0.5% dilution rate. This equates to 1 drop EO to 10ml carrier oil.

🐾For dogs over 10kg you can use up to 3% dilution rate. This is 6 drops EO to 10ml carrier oil.

🐾For oils in the caution list the 0.5% dilution rate is best.

For a carrier oil I like to use fractionated coconut oil, but there are others you can use like olive oil, jojoba oil, almond oil etc.

This is a guideline. Some of the gentle oils you can use more of, but with essential oils, more isn't always better.

And please remember to always observe your pet when using a new oil on them for any sign of distress or sensitivity. It is rare, but all dogs are different, so it's worth keeping an eye on them for a little bit

If you see any unwanted reaction occur, DO NOT attempt to clean oils off with water. Instead, apply more carrier oil to dilute it even further. Water will drive the oils in more.

There are so many benefits to using essential oils topically for your dog when used correctly. Give it a try!

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! Comment below or shoot me a message.
