Answered by Dr. Jeff Feinman
The real quick answer is yes. How you use them and especially if you use them on yourself or your pets, the source and quality of the essential oil is very very important. I do recommend the AnimalEO.com oils. Dr. Shelton does a great job at sourcing her oil. Another good oil blend for calming is an essential oil blend called Pet Remedy and you’ll get a lot of sources from around the world. It goes into their diffuser to help calm pets. But in general, to go back to the question about using strong odors or essential oils around your pet. The best strategy is to upgrade your pet’s diet to improve their balance and their ability to withstand any external influences. Strong odor can be a stressor to the body and by upgrading the diet you build the resilience of your pet and decrease the chance of any problem.
