What Is the Age Well Aromatherapy Spray for Dogs?
The Blissful Dog Shetland Sheepdog Age Well Spray is a handcrafted aromatherapy mist designed to support canine ageing naturally. Made in northern Minnesota, this 82 mL spray uses a proprietary blend of essential oils to help ease the stress associated with canine cognitive dysfunction. Unlike harsh pharmaceutical options, this spray offers a gentle approach to promoting relaxation and comfort for senior dogs. Simply spray behind the ears, on bedding, in a crate, or around the room to create a calming environment for your Sheltie.
How Aromatherapy Helps Ageing Dogs
Aromatherapy uses the scent of essential oils to influence mood and behaviour. For dogs, certain aromas can help create a sense of safety and calm. As dogs age, they may experience cognitive decline, leading to confusion, anxiety, or restlessness. An aromatherapy spray like this one can be used as part of a holistic approach to support your dog’s emotional wellbeing. The mist can be applied to their environment or directly (behind the ears) to provide gentle sensory cues that promote relaxation. Always monitor your dog’s reaction and discontinue use if any irritation occurs.

Ingredients to Look For in Dog Aromatherapy Products
While the exact formula of this spray is proprietary, it is made with all-natural essential oils. Quality aromatherapy products for dogs often include calming oils such as lavender, chamomile, or frankincense.

If your dog has a known sensitivity, consult your veterinarian before use.
