Using Aromatherapy

Dogs can be even more sensitive to oils than people, thanks to those super powerful noses of theirs! When beginning using oils always dilute the oils in the YLO V6 base (recommended) or use a high quality jojoba oil, almond oil or such. I use a mix of about 1 part oils to 3 parts base.

If any redness or reaction occurs do NOT wash off, use more of the base oil to dilute the effect!
To make a spray or spritzer use the recommended amount of oils in an 8 ounce bottle of spring water.

Tips for Calming An Excited or Stressed Dog

• If you are trying to calm a very skittish dog down, apply Peace & Calming, Surrender or Acceptance on yourself

• The dog will begin to calm just from smelling YOU

• As time allows then rub the ears with oils (see above)
