[Everything doTERRA] Re: Dog anxiety

When working with dogs, you can most of the same oils you would try
for humans. You just want to remember to dilute well if applying
topically and always let the dog choose. Allow the dog to sniff the
closed bottle. It will be obvious to you if it appeals to them.

Serenity is a very good choice. Lavender, Vetiver, Melissa and Roman
chamomile my be helpful as well.

I often make an inhaler by putting a loosely crumpled tissue in a jar
with a tight fitting lid then add one drop of oil to the tissue. My
dog will often sit and smell for several seconds. If he does and I
feel he needs it to stay with him a bit longer, I will put diluted oil
on the tips of his ears.

Just like with people it takes time, trial and error to find what
works best, which type of use and how often.

Serenity calms my dog beautifully. He is a Jack Russell terrier bred
to hunt and chase. We often have wildlife in our back yard that gets
his natural instincts going. We will never be able to take that out of
him, nor would we want to. But on a scale of 1 to FRENZY when seeing a
rabbit, serenity takes him down to about a 3 -- much better for his
enlarged heart!
