{diy} Moisturizing Puppy Shampoo

Happy Monday!

Today's post is going to be short and sweet. As some of you know, there's a new puppy at one of the Blonde Brunette and Brass headquarters. We've had her for not even two full days and she's been taking up 98% of my time. Phew- I really did forget how much work these creatures of cuteness are!! Without further ado, I'd love to intoduce you all to Polly:

We got her from the Humane Society on Saturday and have been non stop with her ever since! 

Her and Manolo inspired me to do this little DIY for today, since there's nothing I wouldn't do to make sure my pups are happy and healthy. 

Homemade Moisturizing Puppy Shampoo

+supplies+

Distilled white vinegar

Essential oils (Doterra is my must have!)

Dr. Bronner's pure-castile soap

Glass airtight jar

Rosmary

Coconut oil 

First I boil about 3 cups of water on the stove and drop a bit of rosemary in to steep. Remove the water from the heat and let it cool down to a tiny bit warmer than room temperature.

Once the water is cooled, remove the rosemary and pour the liquid into a bottle. I use a glass bottle with an airtight seal. Then add 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar (for odor removing) a heaping tablespoon of coconut oil (also moisturizing), 5 tablespoons of Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile Soap and 3-4 drops of grapefruit essential oil. Close the lid tightly and give it a good shake until everything is combined.

I'll be sure to include little Polly and Manolo pics in future posts!!
