Dog Remedies





The emotional well being of your dog.

It is easy to see why dogs are called ''man's best friend.'' Dogs are loyal, forgiving and love you unconditionally. Dogs like humans, experience different emotional states in different situations, and because your dog lives in close proximity to you, he/she is particularly sensitive and vulnerable to your emotions. An effective way to help the emotional wellbeing of your dog is the use of Flower Essences.

Nature's Solutions (TM) Flower Remedies for dogs

Each formula is a combination of 4-6 different essences. The formulas are to help deal with some of the more common problems that can arise with dogs.

The essences can be put in your dogs drinking water, or you can lift the lip and squirt directly onto gum or inner lining of mouth. The dosage is 4 -7 drops once daily, except in the case of Emergency Essence and Calming Essence, which are given more frequently as needed. The appropriate formula is usually given for 1-2 weeks and repeated later if needed.

The following is a list of some common conditions to help you choose the appropriate essence. Trust your intuition and knowledge of your dog in choosing the appropriate essence as different needs arise.

When selecting essences for your dog, it is also helpful to first try and establish what is “going on” with him/her.
e.g. is he barking because he is lonely when everyone is at work, school etc?

In other words, try and establish if something is causing the behaviour / symptoms. If so, its usually very helpful to address the cause alongside the symptoms. Hence, the barking dog could be given Lonely as well as Barking.

In addressing the cause as well as the symptoms, the animal is usually afforded a much greater chance to heal his imbalances and achieve greater emotional wellbeing. This is then reflected in a more positive and obvious change in their behaviour
