Can you use tinctures (aka alcohol-based herbal extracts) with your pets?

Short answer: YES!

Let’s clear this one up, because it’s a common worry, and honestly I get it. The word alcohol next to “give to your dog or cat” sounds scary. But here’s the truth: when you use herbal tinctures correctly, the actual amount of alcohol your pet gets is incredibly small, less than what’s in some ripe fruit or even some liquid medications.

Alcohol is a solvent, meaning it’s what helps pull the beneficial compounds out of the herbs. It’s also what keeps tinctures shelf-stable for years without the need for artificial preservatives.

Why it’s safe (when used properly):

-The dose makes the difference. Toxicity only happens at huge amounts, we’re talking several ounces of straight alcohol, not the few drops in a tincture.

-Dilution helps. You can always add the tincture to a bit of warm water or broth and let it sit a few minutes before giving it. The warmth lets some alcohol evaporate.

-The alcohol content in tinctures is lower than you think. Once herbs are macerated and strained, the final extract contains far less alcohol than what went in at the start.

When given by weight, the total alcohol in a pet-safe dose is nowhere near enough to cause harm, but it is enough to pull and preserve the good stuff from the herbs.

So yes, when made with the right herbs and used properly, tinctures can be a safe and effective way to support your pets naturally. Don’t let the word alcohol scare you off; it’s simply what helps extract and preserve all the herbal goodness.

As with anything, always start small, pay attention to how they respond, and you’ll be giving them gentle, long-lasting herbal support in no time. 🌿🐾🫶🏼

This week’s shoutout goes to Root and Splendor!

They have the BEST toxin-free laundry products that actually WORK!🙌🏼

I used their stain spray (let it sit maybe 30 minutes) and then washed with their laundry concentrate, using vinegar in place of softener. The before-and-after speaks for itself, y’all.😳👏🏼

Even with hard water, our clothes come out fresh, soft, and actually clean. None of that “smells fine but doesn’t feel clean” situation.

Bonus for my cloth diapering mamas👉🏼their detergent is gentle + effective enough for those too!

*Not an affiliate, just a big fan of clean products that truly deliver.🫶🏼

Allergies are one of the most common struggles for our dogs, and they can show up in a lot of frustrating ways, like itchy skin, paw licking, hot spots, watery eyes, and ear infections

The tricky part is that underlying allergies are usually the driving force, but not all allergies are the same.

🌱Seasonal / Environmental Allergies:

These often flare up at certain times of the year due to things like pollen, grasses, and mold. If your dog only struggles during a specific time of the year, chances are it’s seasonal.

Natural options that can help:

-Stinging Nettle Extract: a natural antihistamine that’s gentle enough for longer-term use, great for calming allergy responses.

-Quercetin: sometimes called “nature’s Benadryl,” supports histamine balance.

-Chamomile or Calendula rinses: soothing for irritated skin and paws.

-Omega-3s: support healthy skin from the inside out.

-Diluted ACV paw rinse: helps wash allergens off after outdoor time.

🥩Food Allergies:

These are usually year-round and can look very similar to seasonal allergies, like itchy skin and chronic ear infections, or can manifest through stomach issues. The biggest difference though is that they won’t improve much with things like nettle or quercetin. The solution is all about the diet.

-While grains can be inflammatory, it is actually protein that is the most common food allergen for dogs.

-Chicken and beef specifically are the most common culprits.

-A properly balanced raw diet is often the best option, but I know that’s not feasible for everyone.

-If you’re feeding kibble, food trials can be tough because of cross contamination. The only way to be sure there’s no cross contamination in kibble is with prescription diets.

So, if your pup gets ear infections every spring or starts up with itchy paws every fall, herbs may be your best friend. But if the problem is constant, diet changes should be seriously considered.

This week’s shoutout goes to PiperBlue Organic Makeup!

They’ve created truly toxin-free makeup that still gives beautiful, natural coverage.😍

Each color, foundation, highlighter, contour, blush/lip, and eyeshadow, comes in its own refillable tin. So when you run out, you can replace just that one instead of buying a whole new palette.👏🏼

Their formulas include non-nano zinc oxide, which adds a touch of natural sun protection, as a bonus.
(I’m actually wearing it at a baseball tournament today because I ran out of sunscreen).

It’s super easy to apply and honestly takes me less than 5 minutes to do a full face. Mom approved, no-fuss, toxin-free beauty.🙌🏼

We see pink ribbons everywhere in October, but what if instead of a marketing campaign companies actually pulled the cancer-causing ingredients out of their products?

Awareness is great, but change would be better.

This is why I’m so passionate about low-tox living and herbal alternatives…because real change starts with what we bring into our homes and put onto our bodies.🌿

It’s not left vs right.
It’s not red vs blue.

It’s good vs evil.
It’s light vs darkness.

The battle is real. But so is the hope. ✝️

There’s been a lot of talk about natural pain relief lately, so I wanted to share & explain two extracts I make, plus share a couple simple options for young kiddos.

🌿Deep Relief Extract🌿
For when you need stronger, targeted support.

-Willow bark: aspirin-like salicylates for pain + inflammation

-Turmeric + Black Pepper: anti-inflammatory synergy; pepper boosts absorption

-Ginger: warming, improves circulation, eases stiffness

-Yarrow: anti-inflammatory, supports tissue recovery

-Clove: natural numbing action (thanks to eugenol)

-Mullein: soothing, gentle inflammation support for tissues/joints

-Lavender: calming, antispasmodic, helps ease tension

👉🏼Multidimensional support that tackles pain and inflammation from several directions at once.
❌Not for pregnancy, nursing, or younger children.

🌿Mother’s Comfort Extract🌿
For gentle, nourishing comfort: herbs are all generally considered pregnancy + nursing friendly.

-Mullein: soothing for tissues, gentle anti-inflammatory

-Chamomile: calming nervine, mild pain support, relaxes tension

-Oatstraw: deeply nourishing to the nervous system, builds resilience

-Marshmallow Root: demulcent, coats and soothes irritated tissues

-Ginger: gentle warmth + circulation support

-Lavender: calming for both body and mind

👉🏼Instead of “tackling” pain, this blend softens discomfort, eases inflammation, calms the nerves, and nourishes.

🌿Single Herb Options for very young children🌿
Because sometimes the simplest choice is the best.

-Chamomile Extract: gentle nervine and mild pain reliever; often used for teething, tummy upset, and helping little ones relax when they’re fussy or uncomfortable.

-Catnip: calming nervine for children; helps ease irritability, supports restful sleep, and can gently soothe tension or digestive upset.

We all know shopping small matters, but sometimes it’s easy to forget just how much of a difference it makes.

Small businesses are families, dreams, and people hustling to create something better. And when we support them, it’s a win for ALL of us.🫶🏼

So through the end of the year, I’m going to be highlighting another small business every Saturday. Some are local to me and some are online, but all are worth sharing!

This week’s Small Business Saturday Shoutout goes to Bubble & Bee Organic

If you’re looking for toxin-free swaps that actually work, this company is one of my go too’s!

Products I personally have used:

Deodorant: clean ingredients and it holds up! I personally love the honey almond.

Toothpaste: both the spearmint and lemon are favs here. The kids like the lemon, as they’re find the spearmint too spicy.😂

Bubble bath: great shampoo for those with hard water. Also doubles as a dog shampoo too!

The owner is also very knowledgeable and caring.🫶🏼

*Note: I am not an affiliate for this company. I just genuinely love and recommend them. We believe in here and will never compromise that to make a few 💵s.
