Is it safe for dogs to lick oils of aromatherapy (carrier oils and essential oils mix) when I massage them ?
Most would be ok but there may be some of the essential oils that should not be taken internally.
Why would you put oil on the dog to massage them? That would not be the best for their coat and maybe not great for their skin either.
You can do T-Touch massage on animals and it does not require the use of any oil.

No keep in mind if it not safe for you to lick then it is not safe of him and could make him very sick. try buying ones at pet store that are safe for him

Make sure they don't say for external use ony if they do it could hurt the dogs so make sure you give them a bath afterwards!

That really depends. Are you shaving the poodle before the massage? The mixture of hair and scented oils can cause a hairball. I usually use strait mineral oil when massaging my basset hound, and i trim, not shave the beast.

Just like humans there are certain essential oils which can be harmful if ingested. Also some oils are harmful to pregnant humans as well as animals. Please use caution with some oils.
