The latest trend is to use essential oils to scent our homes. They relax us, they energize us and they fill our air with scents that can be overwhelming for our dogs. They can also be toxic.

As with anything, we need to be careful around our pets. We should research any product to make sure it is pet safe.
That would also include cleaning products, especially floor soaps. Some products contain essential oils. With floor soaps there is a high possibility of a pet, especially a dog ingesting some of the product when it licks its feet.
Another caution is to never mix products. They can react to create chemicals that are enough to sicken and even kill a pet.
Always be careful about how and what you use in your home. Our pets depend on us to provide a safe place to live.
