Ouch Away Hydrosol Spray for Dogs
|
Hydrosols are gentle and mild and are safe to use on all dogs, even puppies and oldies. Tea tree essential oil may not be suitable for use on some dogs (especially puppies and smaller dogs), the hydrosol of tea tree is totally fine. Like the essential oil, tea tree hydrosol also has antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties. It is perfect
for use in a blend to heal minor wounds.
Make this simple hydrosol spray to soothe pain on a fresh minor cut, scrape, or
bruise.
60 ml (2 oz) German Chamomile hydrosol
30 ml (1 oz) Tea Tree
hydrosol
30 ml (1 oz) Lavender hydrosol
Blend the hydrosols in a 120 ml (4 oz) spray bottle. Gently spray the blend directly on the
affected area.
