Well I was trying to wait until I had her in my arms. But I just couldn’t help it. I have to let you all in on a secret. That’s right I did it again. This beautiful little Isabella loveabull is joining our family. I can’t wait for the puppy snuggles!

In our home we use essential oils for many things.

We diffuse them, on the vacuum filter, for owies on the kids, when someone has a cold, headache, for calming, sleep, in our hair and body products, in the laundry, in our household cleaners the list goes on. I use them in my home on my children, and on my little fur babies. (Not the puppies and/or pregnant dogs)

The ongoing joke with the kids is that our house smells like a metaphysical shop.

Something that many may not be aware of is that some oils can be toxic to your pets causing everything from stomach upset to organ failure and even death.

So it’s very important to know which oils are safe for both you and your pets, and just how to use them safely in your home and around or for your pets.

Below are some lists of oils that are safe, and ones to avoid when you have dogs in the house. As well as some tips and tricks on just how to use them with your fur babies.

Essential Oils To Avoid With Dogs

Animals, including dogs, metabolize essential oils differently than humans. Certain essential oils are not safe for use around dogs, because they’ve been shown to produce negative side effects. These essential oils include, but are not limited to:

Birch Oil
Cajeput Oil
Camphor Oil
Cassia Oil
Celery Seed Oil
Cinnamon Oil (All)
Citronella Oil
Clove Bud Oil
Eucalyptus Oil (All)
Fir Needle Oil
Juniper Berry Oil
Nerolina Oil
Niaouli Oil
Oregano Oil
Peppermint Oil
Pine Oil
Rosalina Oil
Rosemary Oil (All)
Sage Oil
Spearmint Oil
Spike Lavender Oil
Spruce Oil
Tea Tree Oil
Thyme Oil (All)
Wintergreen Oil

Safety Considerations

From the outside, it’s clear that animals and humans have different exteriors. But as it turns out, our insides aren’t quite similar either. As previously mentioned, dogs have unique physiology, and cannot metabolize most essential oils like we can and it’s why we must be careful with how we use essential oils around dogs.
And just as essential oil blends for humans aren’t always one-size-fits-all, essential oil blends for dogs should often be tailored to their individual needs and concerns. For example, if you find a blend for dogs online, does it specify what size dog the blend was made for? Or perhaps, offers adjustments to the blend based on your dog’s weight? If not, how are you to know if the blend will benefit both a Great Dane and a Chihuahua?
Therefore, when choosing which oils to use with your pup, keep the following in mind.
Your dog’s:
Age
Size
Medical history
Allergies
Needs

Safe Essential Oils For Dogs

Fear not! There are still so many essential oils that can be enjoyed around your dog, including:
Grapefruit
Lemon
Lime
Tangerine
German Chamomile
Roman Chamomile
Jasmine
Neroli
Patchouli
Ylang Ylang
Cypress
Palmarosa
Petitgrain

Essential Oils Your Dog Will Love

We all need a little more goodness in our lives–pups included. Here are some of our favorite essential oils we use to help soothe these common, doggone problems.

COPAIBA

If you could only own two dog-friendly oils, they should be Lavender and Copaiba. Highly regarded in Veterinary Aromatic Medicine for its ability to ease joint discomfort and reduce inflammation, Copaiba is a great topical oil for your pup. A 3-5% dilution is recommended for achy joints.
Copaiba essential oil has a subtle, pleasant aroma for sensitive dogs. It’s also a skin-loving oil and can be used added to a salve of soy wax and a carrier oil for cuts and wounds, or diluted and added to their bath to help resolve dry or stinky skin.

CLARY SAGE

Cooling and herbal, Clary Sage can be paired with Geranium and applied topically for relief on hot days. This oil is immensely calming and sedative, much like Lavender. It’s pleasant, herbal aroma is enjoyed by humans and pooches alike. Dilute Clary Sage to .5%, transfer to a spray bottle and apply to your dog’s fur.

GERANIUM

Floral and sweet, Geranium is antifungal and cooling. A good oil for topical application when the temperatures are skyrocketing. Anecdotally, it’s also said to deter ticks. Dilute Geranium to .5% in Neem oil, transfer to a spray bottle and apply to your dog’s coat.

LAVENDER

Just as Lavender essential oil has a gamut of purposes for humans, this all-purpose oil is great for dogs too. Calming, sedative, anti-itch and wound healing, diluted Lavender oil should be in everyone’s arsenal – dog owner or not.

ROSE

Have an anxious or skittish dog? Then choose Rose. Calming and skin-soothing, Rose is a treat to the senses (both yours and your dog’s). Try applying a diluted drop to your dog’s collar.

SWEET ORANGE

Citrusy and uplifting, Sweet Orange is a good choice when your dog is in the care of others and possibly missing you. Sweet Orange is also emotionally supportive when your dog is down in the dumps or fearful.

How To Use Essential Oils With Dogs

After choosing oils to use around your four-legged friend, follow these safety tips to ensure the wellbeing of everyone in your home.
The most important thing I want to stress is that your pets do not have a voice and cannot tell you when something is hurting them. A major sign to watch out for would be behavioral differences, such as whining, scratching or acting loopy. These types of signs are a red flag and a prime reason to stop using EOs around them.
With that said, here are some of our top dog-safe essential oil tips.
Don’t use essential oils on or around puppies under 6 months old.
Don’t use essential oils on or around small dogs, such as Chihuahuas, Boston Terriers and Dachshunds, frequently.
Don’t use essential oils on or around pregnant or nursing dogs.
Start with low dilutions when topically applying oils that are new-to-your-dog, such as 1 drop in 30 ml of coconut oil should do the trick.
Don’t apply essential oils to sensitive areas such as the nose, mouth, snout, ears, privates, etc.
Don’t use essential oils undiluted.
Don’t administer essential oils via oral route.
And with a sense of smell 10,000 to 100,000 times more acute than human’s, animals are more affected by essential oil diffusion than one might think. What this means is that diffusing 10-15 drops of essential oil in your Ultrasonic Diffusers is like diffusing 100,000 drops of essential oil or more to your pets.
When diffusing around your dog, follow these guidelines:
Keep your oil diffuser out of your dog’s reach.
Diffuse in a well-ventilated area.
Ensure your dog has the ability to remove itself from the area of diffusion (leave doors opened).
If an adverse reaction occurs, discontinue use and seek medical attention from a veterinarian.
Diffuse for 10-15 minutes intermittently.
Opt for a passive diffuser, such as the Reed Diffuser.

When In Doubt

You can still enjoy aromatherapy to the fullest if you’re feeling iffy about using essential oils around your pup. Apply your essential oils topically, diffuse in an area your dog isn’t present, or reach for a personal pocket inhaler filled with your favorite blend. Use these aromatherapy techniques and you’ll soon find you can have the best of both worlds.

We always want to treat our little fur babies.
With the weather getting warmer more fruits and vegetables become abundantly available.
The problem is not all fruits and vegetables are safe for dogs. Some can have detrimental effects on their health. Everything from discomfort and gas, vomiting, diarrhea to kidney failure and liver problems, even death.
So with that being said I thought I would post a few informational pictures to show which are safe, unsafe and which should be given in moderation.
Also remember when introducing new foods to your pets, that some may cause an allergic reaction.
So in order to be able to know exactly which foods cause those reactions and don’t work well with your little guy remember to introduce new foods slowly and one at a time for a period of time until you know they can safely be eaten without any reactions.

Welcome everyone to our page. I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Rebecca, I am a busy mom of four, who loves French Bulldogs. When I was a young girl I wanted to have a house full of puppies. I found my life’s purpose in becoming a mother, however I never forgot my puppy dreams.

We now have four beautiful little frenchies. Who are first and foremost family members.

Stella our blue brindle who carries cocoa and is the sweetest most cuddliest dog I’ve ever met.

Enzo the king of our program and major stud muffin. He is a blue with tan points short and compact and son of Flash Harry. He carries chocolate (b), cream, and cocoa to make those beautiful Isabellas and new shade Isabellas.

Mabel (Sweet Mabel) our beautiful blue pied who carries chocolate (b) cocoa, and fluffy!! 🔥

Freya our sweet little lilac fawn carrying chocolate (b)

They are the base of our program and I will introduce you all to our new tribe members as they come.

I have spent a great deal of time picking the best quality dogs for our program. Most of our dogs come from Loveabulls and West Coast lines.

Each of our little tribe members comes from amazing pedigrees, are health tested clear, have great structure, and are well loved.

They live in our home with us, as will all their puppies being raised underfoot and socialized with other dogs, children, and so much love.

In about six months time we will be breeding our beautiful Stella to our Enzo and have a litter of beautiful blues, lilacs and some will be carriers of both cream and chocolate (b).

Here you will find all the newest information on our breeding program. As we are just starting up this may take a little time.

Please feel free to message anytime with questions, and like and share this page.

I look forward to sharing our journey with you all.

Rebecca.
