🐾 Are Wax Melts Safe Around Dogs? Here’s What You Need to Know

As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to make sure everything in your home is safe for your pets – including your wax melts.

If you’ve been wondering "Are wax melts safe around dogs?" or "Are Chandlers wax melts pet friendly?", here’s a simple, honest answer šŸ‘‡

Ā 

āœ… Are My Wax Melts Safe to Use Around Dogs?

Yes – my wax melts are safe to use around dogs when used as directed. I use high-quality soy wax and carefully chosen fragrance oils that meet safety standards.

That means:

  • No paraffin wax
  • No harsh additives

It’s important to remember that any kind of fragrance product can trigger respiratory or allergic reactions in humans and pets, so always use them in a well-ventilated area and test a small dose at first if you or your dog is prone to allergies.

All my wax melts have CLP labels on them, this lists the main ingredients, including allergens. if you do notice that a particular scent seems to have an adverse effect on anyone in the household, make a note of the allergens or keep the label safe. Then if it happens again you can see if there are any patterns, and learn which ingredients to avoid in future.

🐶 Are Chandlers Home Fragrance Products Pet Friendly?

The short answer? Yes – I make every product with pet safety in mind.

I don’t use essential oils known to be toxic to dogs (like tea tree or eucalyptus).

Every product is tested in my own home – which includes 2 four-legged friends – so I can confidently say they’re suitable for homes with dogs.

That said, just like with any home fragrance, you should always:

  • Use in a well-ventilated space
  • Keep wax warmers out of reach of pets
  • Never leave a lit or heated wax warmer unattended
  • Don't allow pets in to any room whilst you have carpet freshener powder down - vacuum well before letting them in.

🐾 Quick Safety Tips for Pet Owners

If you’re using wax melts around pets:

  • Choose soy-based wax melts with quality fragrance oils (like mine)
  • Keep your wax burner high up or in a pet-free zone
  • Watch for any unusual behaviour – if your dog is sneezing, sniffing more than usual, or seems uncomfortable, stop using that product until you know why.

šŸ’¬ Final Thoughts

My wax melts and home fragrance products are designed to be used in real homes – with real pets, kids, and families. I always put quality and safety first, so you can enjoy beautiful fragrance without worry.
