#EssentialOils to Avoid Using Around Your Dog
By Organic Aromas
December 24, 2023
- Exercise caution when using essential oils around pets to avoid toxicity and health risks.
- Certain essential oils such as tea tree oil, cinnamon, citrus oils, wintergreen and sweet birch are harmful to dogs and should be avoided.
- Consult a veterinarian before use for safe practices with alternative non-toxic remedies available.
"Certain essential oils can pose risks to dogs, causing skin irritation, respiratory issues, and even toxicity if ingested or applied topically. Used improperly, some essential oils may cause changes in behavior, adverse central nervous system effects, and respiratory difficulties. Being cautious and knowledgeable about the potential hazards linked to essential oils for your dog is necessary.
Dr. Janet Roark, a veterinarian, emphasizes the importance of safety guidelines when using essential oils around pets. Cats, for example, are significantly more sensitive to the effects of essential oils than dogs, including rosemary essential oil. The same caution should be exercised when using essential oils around dogs, as they can also experience negative effects."
