Help Needed! Tea tree oil on dogs?!!

[ddnene]

I use that along with other essential oils on my dogs a lot with no issues.

You know my vet did some research… she said that most holistic vets use tea tree oil w/no issues. The conventional vets of course want you to spend the money on other meds… Since I have NO idea about essential oils (and Wally vomited) I'm going to stay away from it.

Yeah im about 90% holistic with my dogs. How much did you put on him? Did you dilute it at all?

Kelp Powder is a supplement that would be good for helping that hair come back.

I put several drops on a cotton pad, and then put it on him. And NO it wasn't diluted… when I googled it on the internet I about had a stroke. Do your dogs have a reaction to it at all?!!

Neither of mine have ever had any reaction to it and I use it on both quite often along with lavender. lemon oil, and peppermint oil one is almost 7 months and my other is 3. I even add it to their Shampoo/ Conditioners. I always dilute it you should never apply it full strength even its a little bit.

Well I think that was my FIRST mistake by NOT diluting it, but my vet never told me to dilute it. I guess I need to take an essential oil class… or leave it to the professionals!!!
