The best essential oils for Dogs

The best essential oils for Dogs

The wild and wondrous aromatherapeutic properties of pure botanical essential oils aren’t merely reserved for humans, with our furry four-legged friends also able to benefit from them. While some essential oils are off-limits for dogs, many boast potent mental and physical benefits.

Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal, sweet marjoram is a dog-friendly essential oil with calming properties. Well-suited to anxious or nervous dogs, sweet marjoram works to soothe tense muscles and alleviate stress, so the only thing your furry friend has on their mind is which puddles to jump in on their next walk! Sweet marjoram also helps reduce skin sensitivities and boasts insect-repelling properties, helping your dog’s coat stay free from unwanted visitors.

The relaxing yet energizing properties of rosalina extend to dogs, with the lemon-lavender aroma of this native botanical soothing the nerves as it nourishes the skin making it the perfect fit for anxious pets.

Our Natural Dog Wash is now available here.
