Using Essential Oils to Treat Dog Illnesses

First, groom your pet to rid its coat of any mats or knots. Bathing will not remove these and in fact will worsen them. Innova pet food is considered as the first holistic food that is healthy for all the pets. The Innova pet food is specifically manufactured, keeping in mind the requirements of cats and dogs.

Let dry completely before putting on your pet, it should keep the fleas off for about 30 days. Blood is the flea’s only food, but when garlic is detected in it they will leave well enough alone. I’ve also read a number of articles citing very sick pets, and sometimes sick humans, resulting from the flea killers. We did however, wash a lot of pets after we came up with this formula. We are sure your pet will like it as much as they did.”

Also - never use essential oils undiluted on pet or human unless they are specifically stated to be safe for application in that sense. We must exercise due caution in using essential oils, herbs, homeopathic remedies, and other natural treatments on our pets, just as we would on ourselves or other people. Spray the carpet, furniture, etc. Basically do the same as above, but on this oil you do this recipe ONCE every 3 months.

These disgusting little predators can carry disease and make your pet miserable. Until now, the only solution has been harmful chemicals like Pyrethrins and Pyrethoids. In many cases the best treatments could use nutritional supplements in addition to the prescribed drug and regularly I find that many pets do very well on the nutritional supplement alone. A combination of antioxidants and herbs that prevent and fight inflammation, some natural pain relievers and supplements, which strengthen the immune system, are incredibly beneficial in the healing process.

Adult fleas live on the dog, but during earlier stages of the fleas life they live in your carpet or in the dog’s bedding. A female flea can lay 10 to 50 eggs a day, and 2000 eggs in her lifetime. Natural medicine can help your pet just as it can help you. While there is always a place for conventional veterinary medicine, natural medicine can compliment conventional veterinary care and in many cases cure your pets just as well - without the side effects and damage to health that can accompany synthetic drugs and antibiotics.

It has become a popular addition to natural pet care products. Several companies offer shampoos and coat sprays that contain Tea Tree. If you or your pet has a medical problem, you should consult your medical doctor or veterinarian. The ideas and information on this site have not been endorsed or approved by the FDA.
