About once a year, our dog Sam would have an allergic reaction to some plant he would encounter in the woods behind our house. He would scratch and scratch until sores develop. It can be difficult whether or not to bring a dog to a vet or let the reaction play out. After a couple of days, his reaction would subside, but we always felt so terrible for him in the meantime.
That’s what inspired this Anti-Itch for Dogs Essential Oil Roll-On Recipe. This roll-on is easy to apply to itch areas and will help soothe dry, itchy irritated skin.
What I Love About This Anti-Itch for Dogs Recipe
No one likes to see their pet in an uncomfortable situation! This roll-on helps soothe the itchiness they are experiencing so they can go on with their day.
What’s in the Anti-Itch for Dogs Roll-On?
Juniper Berry Essential Oil
Juniper Berry Essential Oil has a fresh evergreen scent that is very uplifting. It has soothing properties that will help aid the itchiness your pet is experiencing.*
Ginger Essential Oil
Ginger Essential Oil is soothing as well. It has a warm and citrus aroma that will bring a sense of calmness to your pet.*
Almond Oil
Almond oil is the carrier oil in this recipe! A carrier oil allows the essential oils to dilute to a safe level so skin irritation will not happen. Carrier oils can also be interchanged, so if you have a favorite, feel free to use it!
10 ml Roll-On Bottle
The 10 ml roll-on bottle is the perfect size to carry around with you! If you are out for a hike and your pet gets an itch, you can have it along to give immediate anti-itch relief!
Things to Remember When Using This Anti-Itch for Dogs Roll-On
