How I like to use my lavender oil indirectly with my dogs are when washing their dog bed covers. First, I wash my dog bed covers in the washing machine on a cool water gentle cycle. Then I like to air dry them and fluff them in the dryer. Before I close the dryer door, I put about 4 or 5 drops of lavender essential oil on my wool dryer balls, throw them in the dryer with the dog bed sheets and even a favorite sleeping blanket.
Does your pet sleep in a dirty bed? It is possible to think your dog bed is “not that bad” when in fact it could be grimier than you realize? Infections can be passed from pets to people extremely easily. Unfortunately, your pets often come in contact with feces, vomit, saliva, urine and other bodily discharges. Sounds disgusting but it’s true and we should pay more attention to these mostly invisible germs.
