1/3 cup ethyl rubbing
alcohol
1 drop liquid hand soap (plain, unscented)

2 tablespoons mineral oil
In a small bowl
or jar, add ethyl rubbing alcohol and camphor oil, gently
stirring to combine. Then add citronella, continuing to gently

To use, spray mist
your dog lightly, avoiding the eye area, and any areas of
