What are the benefits of using our Anti-anxiety Blends?
So who is diffusing “Anti-Anxiety” Blend around their pets besides me? Groomers, Veterinarians, shelters and rescues, foster homes, boarding facilities, and breeding kennels and those sharing their home with anxious animals of all sorts, and even people on long road trips are doing it!
I love it when I get an email stating how impressed someone was with how their dogs rode in the car for thousands of miles - without their typical stress-filled antics, or panting (a sign of stress)! SUPER!
How Proper Nutrition and our Digestion Blend Can Help your pet Eliminate without irritation
YES, that is a dog butt! (and a very irritated one!)
Nothing is worse that smelling the secretion of anal glands, or having to extract them. Even worse, having your precious pup spread that nasty stuff all over your carpet!
It is much more common is some breeds. But just for your quick education:
Dogs have two anal glands, positioned at around 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock on the "Anus Watch". The anal glands sit just inside the rectum and create a nasty,
How Can I prevent Yeasty Ears?
It’s a fact that veterinarians become frustrated and just content to sit on one way of doing things when it comes to skin issues. They may be a bit burned out, and so continuing education regarding one of their least favorite topics - ear infections, allergies, and skin infections - are definitely at the bottom of their list, and they just stay with the ‘same old, same old” conventional way of doing things that they KNOW don’t even work! I don't

ESSENTIAL OILS AND FISH
Adding EO's to aquariums or even ponds can be a great way to allow them to benefit from the oils by ridding them of fungus, bacteria, viruses, and other health concerns.
Always start with a toothpick with the tip having EO's on it, and stick it into the tank first. You can build from there as you see how the fish react and the EO's begin to go to work. Two to three drops of an oil can
4 Causes of Hot Spots
Hot spots are open, red sores caused by a dog constantly licking the site of irritation. But what leads to the incessant licking?
A WET COAT
It is not uncommon for a dog that loves to swim to often develop hot spots, because they are constantly wet. Dogs tend to lick at wet fur, which in turn can actually lead to a hot spot. Be sure after swimming or bathtime, that you thoroughly dry your dog’s coat, especially if they have long
Bathing Your Dog with Essential Oils
Natural Anti-fungal Baths and Rinses
For skin yeast infections, I recommend a natural anti-fungal shampoo like our All Natural Pet Shampoo. I have formulated a blend that includes several essential oils targeted specifically at yeast, bacteria, and are anti-inflammatory, as well as anti-parasitic. You can bathe your dog as often as necessary, but once a week at a minimum if you have inflammation going on. Since grains and carbs feed yeast, I don't recommend using oatmeal-based shampoos for pets with allergies
What are some Alternatives to NSAIDs for Pain Relief in my pet? (And dangers of Steroids)
Alternatives to NSaids for Pain Relief
I’m sure you are familiar with the names of Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) like Rimadyl, Metacam, Deramaxx and Previcox.
These drugs are prescribed by vets to treat inflammation and pain, not only for long-term diseases like arthritis, but also for injuries and other conditions.
At some point during your dog’s life, your vet may recommend NSAIDs.
But, unfortunately, they will most likely leave out the risks associated with these drugs – information you need to make an
Understanding Pet Allergies and Treating Them Holistically
Skin and coat issues due to allergies are one of the greatest complaints that veterinarians see in their practices every day. They are the most annoying, and unfortunately, the least responsive to pharmaceutical treatment. Allergies can wear both you and your pet out! But many times the treatment is merely putting a “band aid” on the problem and not treating the root cause, therefore the problems keep returning. Fortunately, holistic veterinarians have a new modality to deal with these issues
