Is Mint Safe for My Dog?Updated 4 days ago

It’s natural to wonder whether mint is safe for dogs — especially since some plants and essential oils can cause issues for pets. Here’s what you need to know.

Mint and Dogs: The Basics

• Fresh mint leaves: Small amounts of fresh mint (like spearmint or peppermint leaves) are generally not harmful to dogs.

• Concentrated mint oils: Pure essential oils or large amounts of concentrated mint can upset your dog’s stomach or cause other issues. These should be avoided.

• Our Natural Mint Flavor: In our Fresh Breath Dental Powder, we use a 100% natural mint flavor that is safe for dogs. It’s a carefully crafted blend made using natural processes like water extraction, alcohol extraction, oil extraction, or distillation.

This results in a light mint taste and aroma, without the concentrated compounds that can be harmful in larger or raw forms.

Why We Use Natural Mint Flavor

• Helps freshen your dog’s breath.

• Adds a pleasant aroma to make dental care more enjoyable.

• Used in very small amounts, designed specifically to be safe for daily use by dogs.

Your dog’s health is our top priority. Every ingredient we use is reviewed to ensure it is safe and effective. Our natural mint flavor has been enjoyed by many dogs without issue.

If your dog has specific allergies or health concerns, we always recommend checking with your veterinarian before introducing any new product.

✅ Bottom line: Mint in the form we use — a gentle, natural flavor — is safe for dogs and helps keep their breath fresh.
