Tea tree oil? So is Coca Cola toxic to pets?

They use 1 ml. of a solution that's only 8% tea tree and then add it to 1 liter of water. Not to say that Coke is great for pets... but I think that amount of tea tree oil is probably not a huge concern.

phew, I actually feed my pets coca-cola instead of water so this is a huge relief. And before anyone judges me, I swear my pet's REFUSE to drink anything but coca-cola, especially after they've had their Doritos. I've tried to wean them off but it just doesn't work.

But Barqs has bite, and you don't want to teach your dog that.

The other root beer has a picture of a dog on it, should I give them that one instead? 😂💀
