Myrtle has been chewing around her femoral artery, bladder area. She's a very sensitive soul tried several remedies for pain and kidney/bladder but she really settled with pink lotus 🪷 which is for kidneys but is also for balancing the chakras

This article is so beautifully written, it's from a nearly qualified instructor from the The Wolf and Dog Development Centre It is why I am so passionate about their teachings and it fits in so naturally with my other passion Applied zoopharmacognosy.

It's all about understanding the why, supporting them treating them as active beings not passive, giving them choices.

Then the understanding of yourself goes to a whole new level.

"Let your puppy jump up?" It might sound surprising, especially in a world where consistent training is emphasized. But what if there's a crucial missing piece to the puzzle? Today, we'll explore the often-overlooked unconditional period in puppy development from a neurological and natura

I hope that all those feeding insect or plant based food to their dogs please read this

Proper nutrition is essential for your dog to thrive, promoting robust health and vitality for the long term.

Neglecting your dog’s nutritional needs can result in health complications and disease. Simply knowing whether an animal is a carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore isn’t sufficient.

To grasp the concept of raw dog food, it’s crucial to consider what dogs would naturally consume. Every aspect of their physiology, from their teeth to their tail, indicates a preference for meat.

Their digestive system is optimised for carnivorous diets, featuring a short, rapid intestinal tract and a stomach with high acidity and elasticity. Additionally, their gut bacteria are tailored for digesting meat and struggle with plant fibres.

This is Cody he has numerous little issues going on , skin and diarrhea being the current ones. Today he just wanted to work with the antimicrobial, antibacterial, garlic, bitter almond, oregano and thuja. He worked very differently with them today he more or less lay on the sofa in a very deep almost asleep. He didn't give much away I could only tell by his deep breathing, occasional twitch of the nose which oils he was working with.
It's only now with new found confidence from the IMIM diploma course that I knew he was still working with the oils. Before I would have given up thinking he was asleep.
He worked deeply with them for an hour. He then got up stretched, yawned licked me wagged his tail and left the room looking bright and refreshed.

Great article, the benefits to your pets long term health by reducing as many chemicals as you can. It is frightening how many unnecessary chemical treatments are recommended we give to them by vets. Worm testing is also so good, then if the results are positive you can decide which route to go down. Myrtle is 7 and all her worm tests have come back negative, imagine how many unnecessary chemicals I could have been giving her

This morning I went to see Roxy, she had an unfortunate accident last week. Whilst she was running around with her best pal Ernie she somehow shattered her leg in many places.

It had to be amputated, we had great results and at the end of the session Roxy relaxed and stretched out for the first time since the accident.

Roxy first selected Garlic, bitter almond, but really worked with peppermint and German chamomile.
She then had some arnica which she allowed me to put on her wound, she also licked along with sea w**d.

She finished the session with Rose otto and frankincense

Myrtle is working here with Rose Otto , hops , violet leaf. After her escapades I thought she would work with the pain relief oils.
I was forgetting how traumatic the experience would have been for her, this is why I love this approach I am totally guided by Myrtle she let's me know what she wants and needs never what I think she needs or should have.

Had the pleasure of visiting this young man today Albert. He has had an infected paw for several weeks now.
Visited the vet was sedated and the paw cut to check if there was anything in there causing the infection. Put on a coarse of antibiotics but no luck.

Today he self selected rose hips, devil's claw and comfrey. I love leaving them to select for themselves. As its not always what we think they should have or need.

Albert went on to select Garlic , German chamomile, seaw**d absolute with green clay which he indicated he wanted on his wound.
