1 small vital lavender essential oil

1. Sprinkle several drops of each oil on the bandanna
2. Roll the bandanna and tie it loosely around your dog's neck
3. Launder the bandanna, retreat with oil when the scent fades

If your dog won't wear a bandanna, dab oil between it's shoulder blade where it can't be licked off.
