โIs it time to consider some liver support and whole body support for your pets?
We really like the quality of @augustineapproved products with comprehensive information on their website to explain in more detail about each product and how best to use them.
In this reel Iโm showing you Faithโs Cleanse & Detox so you can see what the product looks like inside the container. Iโll be looking to mix the powder with some coconut mct oil to make it easier to blend in with Gus & Mindyโs meals.

๐ฆดLamb Neck Bone from Canine Country
These are long lasting meaty bones that provide overall teeth and gum workout.
Itโs also the overall diet you feed your pets that can either help or hinder your petโs teeth and gum health.
Another reason to feed fresh whole food diet such as muscle meats, offal/organ meats, bones including raw meaty and ground bone in your petโs meals.
As well as organic blueberries, super greens powder, seaweed dental powder, and other anti inflammatory foods. Nourish their gums.
You can buy these bones from

๐ฆด Do you give your dog or cat the opportunity to chew on raw meaty bones?
๐ถ๐ฑYou can offer your dog or cat raw meaty chicken or turkey necks, lamb or beef brisket or necks etc. Choose non weight bearing bones, sizes suitable for your pet and always supervise from a distance.
Great for dental health, enrichment, meets their primal needs as dogs and cats are designed to rip and tear on their prey.
Youโll keep their head, jaw and neck muscles strong too.
(If your dog is only on a high processed kibble diet I donโt recommend giving your pet raw meaty bones as they can be harder to digest but instead offer dehydrated single ingredient chews such as roo jerky or tendons, moo chews, lamb, roo or venison ears etc)

Itโs easy to grow your own parsley.
I grab my scissors and cut some leaves and soft stems into small pieces, mix in with my dogs meals.
Also great to add to your own meals too.

โค๏ธ Mindyโs Claw Clipping routine ~ Pawdicure
When I first adopted Mindy I wasnโt sure if Iโd ever be able to trim her claws. After allowing plenty of time to settle into her new home we started to slowly work towards claw clipping (nail clipping).
Mindy has been amazing and now volunteers her paws for clipping, as long as we have treats for her efforts ๐คฃ๐ฅฐ
โค๏ธGus patiently awaits his turn and eagerly jumps on the lounge for his nail clipping after we have finished doing Mindyโs pawdicure.
There was one time I just nicked her quick and only saw a spot of blood on her nail, however this sent us way back to earning Mindyโs trust again to let me clip her nails. We got there eventually using food and only clipping one nail working towards clipping all of her nails.
During all the months of thunderstorms, I held off clipping her nails as frequently as I wouldโve liked. I knew she was already anxious from all the storms weโve had. Thankfully these storms โ๏ธ have subsided now and weโre back to keeping her usual routine.
๐ถI purchased new nail clippers but found the old antique nail clippers pictured in these photos have worked better for Mindy

So what was in the parcel yesterday from Augustine Approved for Gus & Mindy?
1.๐ Little Universe Mushroom Supplement
2. A special free gift Augustineโs Superbalm
1.๐ถ Since Gus had his acute pancreatitis episode and then some months later a paralysis tick, Iโve been trying to get his immune system back into a healthy condition.
Having gone down a few paths with Gus to help him, I decided to order the mushroom supplement to see if it will help improve his immune system as well as get rid of papilloma growth (wart) on his right eyelid. It has been there for a number of years then shrunk down to almost nothing. The past month or so it has started to multiply at a fast rate.
The main concern here is that it can cause problems with his cornea if it rubs on his eye or if he starts scratching his eye due to it irritating him.
So firstly I want to try and see if I can treat it internally using the mushroom supplement.
Some varieties of mushroom have been shown to reduce or completely get rid of the papilloma virus. So Iโm a little excited to see how it works for Gus.
The conventional approach is generally to have it surgically removed, however they often grow back, hence I want to try and address it from the inside first.
Iโve started with 1/4 teaspoon twice daily mixed in with his raw food.
Iโll increase this to 1/2 teaspoon twice daily once I see he is digesting okay and increase again if I feel necessary.
I purchased the 125g container, it says to use within 3 months, so if youโre not sure if youโll use it all up, I suggest purchasing the smaller container to start with.
From previous experience mushroom powders will start to solidify as time goes by so being mindful of correct storage is important for longevity of the product.
