If your dog has a stuffy nose, you can add a few drops of eucalyptus oil to the vaporizer. This is also an effective home remedy for dog runny nose and will give your dog immediate relief.

If your dog has a rash of unknown origin, take him to the vet for a diagnosis just in case it is something serious, like poison ivy. However, if your dog has a minor heat rash or has gotten into trouble with fleas, mosquitoes, ants or some other pesky little critter, he may have an all-over irritation that calls for more than what a cream can handle. The best way to soothe this type of skin irritation is with a cool bath. Use a shampoo made for dogs, but get one that has one of the following ingredients: Oatmeal, lavender, eucalyptus or baking soda. If you cannot find a dog shampoo containing oatmeal, you can use the oatmeal in your cupboard.
