There are many reasons we keep chamomile on hand for our dogs. It’s a very versatile plant that’s been well researched for its many uses!

But before we start, as with any herb, some dogs may have an allergy to chamomile. If you know your dog is allergic to daisies, please don’t use chamomile. We recommend testing externally (on the skin) first. On a small, visible area (the tummy is usually a good spot)

If you don’t notice any reaction (rash, bumps, redness, itching, excessive licking, welts), you can move ahead with using it both internally and externally, as needed.

Also, if your animal is new to chamomile, you may want to start small, with a quarter of the recommended amount, and work your way up. 

 

What does  chamomile help with?

 

1. Anxiety

There’s a reason many people turn to chamomile tea before bed, or after a particularly stressful day. It’s well known for its relaxing properties, and that’s why it’s a common suggestion for natural anxiety relief, both for people and pets.

Chamomile is an easy way to help calm your pup when she is stressed or anxious. A chamomile tincture directly in the mouth, or added to food, or some chamomile tea on its own or with food are all ways to use it this way. 1-2 teaspoons for small dogs, 1-2 tablespoons for large dogs. You can also use homeopathic chamomile in this case!

 

2. Tummy Trouble

Because of its soothing anti-inflammatory properties, chamomile can be helpful for an upset stomach, vomiting, indigestion, or acid reflux. It can be helpful for reducing inflammation in the digestive tract, calming it down.

Most dogs don’t mind the taste, and will happily take it with their regular food. Some will even lap it up all on its own. 

Tea: 1-2 teaspoons for small dogs, 1-2 tablespoons for large dogs, 1-2 times daily. 

 

3. Skin Irritation and Inflammation

Again, we go back to those soothing, anti-inflammatory properties. Externally, chamomile can not only soothe irritated skin but also help promote wound healing. 

If your dog suffers from environmental allergies, a rinse after a romp outside, especially in the spring or fall, will help keep the skin microbiome intact but get rid of some of the environmental allergens. Make a rinse with 1/4 tea to 3/4 water. Pour it on and just let it soak in – don’t rinse it off. 

 

4. Anal Gland Issues

Those two small glands near the bum can be troublesome for many dogs. If your dog tends to suffer from anal gland issues, using chamomile as part of your regimen is a good idea. 

 

5. Worms

It is recommended chamomile can be used as a natural alternative for worms in dogs, specifically round and whipworms!

 

 

Chamomile is considered a safe herb. It is very gentle, and most dogs don’t mind the taste or have any issues with it.

That said, we don’t recommend it for long-term internal use. Instead, simply use it when needed.

It’s safe for puppies, but don’t use it with pregnant or lactating dogs.
