This comes up all the time in sessions. Please be very conscious of what cleaning products you use, they are highly toxic to people and especially animals. Anything with 'parfum' is toxic. I recommend using bicarb and vinegar to clean most things in the house.
A new peer-reviewed study in Frontiers in Veterinary Science found that 2 out of 3 dogs with lymphoma were exposed to benzene at DNA-damaging levels, and nearly 9 out of 10 were exposed to xylene. But hereโs what most people miss: over half of healthy dogs had similar benzene exposure, and nearly all dogs had xylene exposure too.
This isnโt rare, itโs everyday life. These chemicals, released from products like cleaners, air fresheners, candles, paints, furniture, and even gas stoves, are commonly found in indoor air and can damage DNA in lab studies. Most dogs are living in a constant background of exposure we rarely think about.
The good news is you can reduce it.๐ Focus on your indoor air, improve ventilation, use an air purifier with activated carbon if possible, avoid synthetic fragrances, switch to simpler low-toxin products, and eliminate smoke exposure. Itโs not one big toxin that matters, itโs the constant low-level exposure over time.
And while reducing exposure is step one, supporting your dogโs ability to handle what theyโre still exposed to matters just as much.
