When treating your dog's sore throat, avoid using human medications like cough syrup—they can be ineffective or even harmful. Skip saltwater gargles too; they're not natural for dogs. If an allergic reaction or abscess is suspected, inspect your dog’s teeth and gums and consult your vet. To ease discomfort during recovery, hydrate your dog's dry food to make swallowing easier.
🍯 Manuka honey: Manuka honey, among numerous other medicinal qualities, is a natural remedy for sore throats in dogs. Feed 1 teaspoon of Manuka honey per 10 pounds of body weight. You can mix honey with pure lemon juice. Do not feed more than 2-3 times per day; too much honey may lead to weight gain.

🍵 Herbal tea: Lemon, sage, peppermint, and thyme are effective herbs for soothing your dog's throat.

🧄 Fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has impressive antimicrobial properties that will help soothe your dog's sore throat.

How to use: Feed the garlic fresh, as dogs find it easy to chew. Don't worry about it being too hot — dogs do not perceive its spiciness as humans do. The best way to get the medicinal qualities of garlic is to use a fresh-cut clove. Jarred chopped garlic provides flavor but no medicinal qualities.

Be sure to follow our feeding guidelines to reap the most out of garlic's healing properties:
5 pounds of body weight: ⅙ teaspoon
10 pounds of body weight: ⅓ teaspoon
15 pounds of body weight: ½ teaspoon
20 pounds of body weight: ⅔ teaspoon
30 pounds of body weight: 1 teaspoon

🛁 Soaking in warm water: Soak your dog in a tub of warm water for 20 minutes every day. Let your dog breathe in the steamy air to open their nasal passages and soothe their sore throat.

🌶️ Cayenne pepper: Cayenne has capsaicin, an active component that blocks pain receptors. Mix a pinch of cayenne with the water and honey. Your dog may not enjoy the initial burning sensation.

🥥 Coconut oil: Coconut oil's anti-inflammatory properties will help address the underlying cause of the sore throat. Feed 1/2 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight daily. Do not feed to dogs with pancreatitis, who find it difficult to break down and absorb fats efficiently.

🍲 Bone broth: Warm bone broth is soothing for a dog's sore throat. It's also nutritious and can help if your dog doesn't feel like eating their regular food.

Rawhide chews come in various shapes and sizes, appealing to various dog breeds and chewing styles. They are marketed as being made from natural animal hides, creating a perception of them being a healthy, natural choice. 👎

Despite these perceived benefits, like cooked bones, rawhide chews are not as safe as they seem. ⚠️ The reality is that rawhide dog chews pose significant health risks, including choking hazards, digestive issues, and exposure to toxic chemicals.

✅ Marrow bones are a great rawhide alternative, offering natural nutrition and several benefits. Packed with essential vitamins and minerals, they support your dog's health. Chewing on them helps clean teeth by removing plaque and tartar, promoting better oral hygiene. Plus, they last longer than rawhide, making them perfect for aggressive chewers.
✅ Split elk antlers, naturally shed by elk, are a safer and more nutritious chew option. They’re less likely to splinter compared to rawhide, making them safer for your dog. The exposed marrow is irresistible, and their durability ensures a long-lasting chew experience for dogs of all sizes.

At Volhard Dog Nutrition, we are dedicated to providing your dogs with the highest-quality, nutrient-rich diets. As part of our commitment to excellence and transparency, we have recently updated our NDF2, Rescue Base, and Veggie Pak mixes to adhere to both state regulations and AAFCO guidelines. As an E-commerce company we must maintain compliance with the individual states with whom we do business. Although AAFCO are just guidelines, the states are using them as regulations.

This update involves:

NDF2 - Burdock Root will be removed and increased amounts of Ginger and Dandelion Root will be added.

Dandelion Root: A natural detoxifier that supports liver and kidney health, aids digestion, and helps remove toxins from the body.

Ginger: Known for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, Ginger aids digestion, reduces nausea, and supports overall gut health.

Rescue diet and Veggie Paks - Milk Thistle, Frankincense, and Burdock Root will be removed and replaced with Turmeric.

Turmeric: A powerhouse herb that supports joint health, aids digestion, and strengthens the immune system with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Despite this slight change in ingredients, the quality, balance, and effectiveness of our formulas remain uncompromised. Our mission has always been to nourish your dogs with the best possible diet while adhering to the highest standards in the industry.

If you have any questions about this update or how it benefits your dog, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always here to help!

Ever wonder if your dog has a favorite? Well, they most probably do! 😬

A pup’s favorite person is the one who gives them the most high-quality time and attention. It’s the person who shares the most positive energy and shows they genuinely care.

Their favorite person is whoever.....gives them attention and affection. The favorite is the person who makes them feel safe and secure and gives them a warm, fuzzy feeling. This is the person whom they will follow around the house like a shadow. ..has a unique personality. Every dog has their own, unique personality, just as we do. Similarly to how we choose our best friends with similar personalities and energy levels, dogs choose their most compatible human companions...have encountered them in the early months. The first six months of a dog’s life are the most vital for socialization. The people they encounter in that period can largely determine who they bond with later in life.

A dogs’ favorite person is associated with their most positive experiences, especially those surrounding feelings of love, shelter, and comfort. They love someone who can make a bad situation better or spend time with them doing something they enjoy. In a dog’s mind, they equate this person to fun, safety, affection, and other good things. Who wouldn’t want to be around a person like that? 💙

So, WHO'S YOUR DOG'S FAVORITE? 😆

🎂🐶💖HAPPY BIRTHDAY💖🐶🎂to our sweet fur baby Takini who turned 1 on 14 January and we celebrated this past Saturday here at K9 Basics with a few clients and staff. Takini enjoyed her fruit and beef heart birthday cake and was showered with multiple gifts!

If not for NorthStar CVT, Cathy K (Maple Shade), who took immediate action to save her life and get her treated, the subsequent emergency care provided by NorthStar Trauma/ER Dr Berg (Maple Shade), the weeks of care/medical procedures provided by the many surgeons at NorthStar (Robbinsville) and the love and attention of her foster mom, Jennifer B, we would not have been able to celebrate this very special birthday!

We also would not have been able to do this without the Love, Prayers and Donations received from our many clients, friends and complete strangers who stepped up to help upon hearing Takini's story. We are truly grateful to all of you!

Fondly,

Lisa & Brian Berg
