Jo-Anna contacted The Healthy Hound with a question about the safety of essential oils for dogs.
Essential oils are highly concentrated natural plant oils extracted from leaves, roots, flowers, bark, and stems. While most often used topically or in aromatherapy, some people do allow their dogs to ingest certain oils.
Before treating your dog with essential oils in any way, we recommend doing your own research and consulting with a holistic vet. If you are not 100% sure that an essential oil is safe for your pet, it’s best to err on the side of caution and avoid it.
