Hello,
Meet Benji the Bouvier.
Benji is 8 months old and full of energy and fun. He comes from a Young Living home some of you may know Donna and Gus Jackson. Benji was the answer to my prayers as I was looking far and wide for a puppy for my grandson Gordon, who lives with me.
It has. been a wonderful adventure so far for us all. When we picked Benji up he came with Y.L.Animal Scents
Shampoo. I must confess I take him to a groomer as he too much for my bathtub. I have found a great use for our products for example the Raindrop in a bottle has been a great help.
It is very handy to apply and it sure keeps me going. With all the activities we do. I have found there is nothing like a good soak in the tub after our busy days. I have mixed up the Raindrop Detox Bath Salts. here is the recipe for that.
In a glass bowl add 6 cups of Epsom Salts.
10 drops Oregano
10 drops Thyme
10 drops Basil
10 drops Wintergreen
10 drops Marjoram
10 drops Cypress
10 drops Peppermint
10 drops White Angelica
10 drops Aroma Seiz
Mix well and store in an airtight glass container.
When having your bath add 1-2 cups of the mixture to your warm bath and soak for 30 minutes.
It is awesome.
I also have my diffuser going since our weather has gone from snow to melting it makes for a very wet dog. As much as I love him the house begins to smell of wet dog so I fire up the diffuser and that takes care of all the unwanted odors.
I love spring and being out in the yard and this year my yard will be different ie puppy proof so I am in the midst of planning a kennel and securing a friendly place for us all. I have found just by googling one can learn so much ie what plants dogs do not like. Would you believe helichrysum is one? I am making a list of what I hope to plant and such thoughts keep me happy on these snowy spring days.
I hope you find my blog interesting if not amusing to think that in this season of my life I am raising an 11-year-old and a Bouvier Puppy. I have said for years that I have oil in my veins and I am sure it is what keeps me going. On April 14 I will have been with Young Living for 23 years! It does speak well for the Company and the product.
I have also found that what I send out to keep you informed goes to your spam folder. I hope this reaches many of you.
Keep well and be kind.
Warm regards,
Vicki-Lynne

I have used the oils on my dogs for years. Now my Heidi is no longer with me but I remember how she laid on her back and let me rub the oils on her. I also made her cookies and added Ningxia Red to them.
Here are some ideas for you.
I have in the past applied Peace and Calming to the paws of my cousins dog who was petrified of thunder storms and it was so helpful the dog looked for the oil in my purse when she could feel the pressure of the storms. These are my own experience with the oils and animals.
I love dogs and I am always posting doggie posts on my Face Book. Here is one that will get to your heart. A Rescued Dog's new forever home.
Please contact me if you would like more information on products or if you are looking for an easy way to share the oils I have a series of emails I can send you help with that.
Also on a personal note I learnt today that my cataract surgery was a huge success and I no longer require glasses. That is huge as I have been wearing glasses since grade 3 and that was a long time ago.
Have a super week and please stay in touch.
Warm regards,
Vicki-Lynne
