Pet Friendly Candles
So…what makes a pet friendly/dog friendly candle or wax melt? The majority of candles on the high street are created with paraffin wax, a derivative of petroleum which releases nasty toxins when burnt such as toluene, benzene, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde and acrolein, which should be avoided for humans, and most certainly our beloved dogs. Many also have lead wicks which when burnt, can emit potentially harmful substances, which if inhaled by your pet can cause sickness, dizziness and possibly seizures. The majority of candles on the high street include synthetic colours and fragrances which can cause allergy symptoms.
Paws Right There candles & wax melts guarantee: All of our candles and melts are created using 100% plant-based natural coconut and rapeseed wax. Our wax is free from palm, soy, paraffin, artificial additives and is also considered vegan friendly. Our candles and melts are hand-poured at our HQ in Cheshire using the highest quality, cruelty free, natural and sustainable ingredients. Our natural cotton (lead-free) and unbleached wicks ensure the cleanest burn possible. We use 100% natural essential oils and no synthetic fragrances, parabens, carcinogens or other nasties.
No Plastics… we use glass jars for our candles and glassine bags for our melts, and all of our packaging is 100% recyclable.

How to use: When you light the candle for the first time burn it until it creates a pool of wax across most of the diameter of the candle - this takes approximately 1 hour. This will ensure the candle remembers to burn to the edge rather than a tunnel for an even burn. The candle jar will be easy to clean with soap & water once finished so it can be recycled… keep hold of your vessel as we look to create eco refills in the near future!
Although we use the highest calibre natural ingredients if you or your pets become unwell or have any allergic reaction discontinue use immediately
