Chamomile Tea Eye Wash

It’s always a good idea to keep your dog's eyes clear of debris. I like to give Morgaine an eyewash after we hike so that I can remove any dirt that may have gathered in her eyes throughout the day.

One of the best ways to do this is by making a cup of chamomile tea.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• One Organic Chamomile tea bag
• One cup of filtered water
• Cotton balls

Directions:

• Boil a cup of water
• Pour the water into a cup with the Chamomile tea bag
• Let the tea steep for fifteen minutes.
• Let the tea cool down to room temperature (be REALLY careful to make sure the tea is brought down to room temperature)
• Soak a cotton ball in the tea and gently squeeze the solution into you dog’s eyes. You can gently wipe away and grim that has gathered in the corners or under the eye.
• That’s it! All done. Just watch your dog and make sure they don’t try to roll around and undo all your hard work!
