Tink's Lavender Tea Tree Salve

This is Tink.

Tink is an awfully happy dog.

As you can see, she's very graceful.

Tink's also got a problem. Fundamentally, her skin doesn't work right, and sometimes she hurts herself and takes a long time healing. So Tink's mom rubs her with diluted tea tree and lavender oils, and then adds skin cream on top to keep her from itching.

This is a pain in the butt. And so, I set out to make things a little simpler for Tink and her mom.

I figured I might as well make the new salve available to everyone. Lavender and tea tree are a favourite combination of mine; I did a lavender tea tree soap a while ago, and though it's long sold out I remember it well. (Might even do another run soon, but I digress...)

It smells good. It feels nice. It's moisturizing. It makes itchy spots go away. It helps your skin heal when you've been chewing on it.

Which humans generally do less often than Tink, but you never know.

Tink is rather a princess (see the top picture if you doubt me), so it seemed only right to name my new product for her. After all, it should appeal to her natural vanity (and I'm assured that she's quite vain) and she was the one to inspire my new product. Or her mom was, anyway.

And, I'll admit it, I like dogs. I haven't gotten to meet Tink myself but I suspect that if I did we'd get along wonderfully. If she ever got over being offended at me for laughing so hard when she runs into her brother again.

In any case, I'm glad to be doing my part to keep Tink happy and healthy. And I'm proud to add Tink's Tea Tree Lavender Salve to my line of products. For the princess in all of us.
