Is it true that Plug-in air fresheners release volatile organic compounds that are harmful to dogs?
Unclear. Two sources partially support the claim: a screening study reports that plug-in air fresheners release VOCs associated with adverse health effects such as asthma, and a gel air freshener paper notes that a share of the U.S. population reported health problems when exposed to fragranced products. Neither source addresses dogs, so the animal-harm half of the claim is not covered.
