Can dogs have Jasmine oil?

Overview

No. Jasmine oil should not be administered to dogs orally. However, dogs can benefit from jasmine oil through inhalation and aromatherapy. With its calming effects and sedative properties, jasmine oil can help nervous and anxious dogs. Start with a small amount of jasmine oil to use with a diffuser.

Benefits

Jasmine oil can be used in aromatherapy for dogs. It's not meant to be ingested or for topical use. When used in a diffuser, jasmine oil can have sedative and calming effects on dogs with anxiety.

Risks

Jasmine oil is not recommended to be given to dogs orally. It may trigger allergic reactions in dogs. In some cases, consuming jasmine oil can cause difficulty breathing, weakness, paralysis, and a slow heartbeat.
As dogs have a keen sense of smell, excessive inhalation of jasmine oil can cause irritation and respiratory problems.

Servings

Use 3 to 5 drops of jasmine oil for a 100 ml diffuser. You can increase or decrease the amount, but starting from the lowest amount is recommended.
When diffusing jasmine oil, make sure you do it on well-ventilated areas. Don't use diffusers around your dog's sleeping area or crate.
