pet remedies?

[Guest guest]

I'd add MSM to his diet.

I'd also look at switching to a raw biologically correct (for dogs)

diet. My cat is raw.

Lot's of purified water too.

 

Canine Arthritis Relief Formula

4 Rosemary

5 Lavender, angustifolia

4 Chamomile, roman

3 Marjoram

2 Juniper

2 Cypress

1 teaspoon Trauma Oil (infused arnica and calendula)

 

fill 2 oz bottle with these oils and fill the rest of the way w/ a light

carrier oil

massage on area

 

This blend can also be sprayed if that works better. Don't add the

Trauma Oil- just spray on mixed w/ distilled water.

 

A simple pain formula is:

10 Lavender

5 Peppermint

1 teaspoon infused arnica/calendula

1 /12 tablespoons almond oil

 

blend and apply as needed

 

 

Good luck!!
