Her eyes told a story no words could touch—a story of fear, pain, and a heart that had almost given up. Some souls carry so much unseen weight, yet still have the power to teach us about love and healing 🐾♥️

Some days, my heart drifts back to the animals who’ve crossed my path—the ones whose eyes spoke of pain, resilience, and the quiet hope to be seen again.
Each one has taught me something sacred about healing, trust, and the unspoken bond between hearts.

Her name is Ahuva, meaning Beloved in Hebrew—and beloved she truly became.

She was found in 2019 in the middle on a lonely rural road and brought to Dassenberg Rescue, completely shut down.
Her body was safe, but her heart was locked away.
She wouldn’t look at us, wouldn’t let anyone close. It was as though she had given up. I remember how she hid in the kennel and attacked anyone coming to close with that wild terrified look in her eyes...

I began visiting her each day, not to push, but to gently offer support. Through Listening beyond words to the heart of God’s creation, I could sense the deep grief at the root of her emotional shutdown. She had known abandonment and fear, and she didn’t know if it was safe to trust again.

I brought essential oils for her to smell, allowing her to guide me in what she needed most. The oils work so beautifully with animals—their tiny molecules reaching past the blood-brain barrier to bring calm and release. Alongside this, I offered her a small selection of herbs to choose from—this process is called zoopharmacognosy, where animals instinctively select the plants that will help them heal. Ahuva showed me what resonated with her, and I followed her lead.

Slowly, her walls began to soften. Her carers Mayanna Muter and Isobel Elizabeth Briers supported her patiently—teaching her how to walk on a leash, showing her consistency, kindness, and safety.

And then, one day, Ahuva looked at us differently. Her eyes held light again. She began to play, to open her heart, and to call out with joy when I arrived.

From a soul too broken to connect, Ahuva became a dog who glowed with love and happiness. She reminded us all what healing looks like when we combine patience, natural therapies, and deep listening. I will never forget this very special soul

These are the moments that stir something sacred within me.
To see an animal’s heart awaken again—
to watch the light return to their eyes,
the softness to their spirit,
and the joy to their step—
is the greatest gift of all.

This is the heart of the work I do:
to listen deeply,
to walk gently beside them,
and to help each precious soul remember
the peace, the joy, and the connection they were created for.

Each animal I meet reminds me that healing is holy work—
slow, tender, and full of grace.
And for that, my heart is endlessly grateful. 💚

We have had a few cases of mycotoxin poisoning recently. Its not a poisoning that folks are generally familiar with, so we thought we'd share the information to raise awareness.-

Ingestion of mouldy food from the bin or a compost pile puts dogs, cats, horses, livestock, and even wildlife at risk for toxicity due to tremorgenic mycotoxins. These toxins may be found in MOULDY bread, pasta, cheese, nuts, or other decaying matter like compost. Clinical signs include vomiting, agitation, incoordination, tremors, seizures, and elevated body temperature. A specific mycotoxin called aflatoxin can even cause liver failure. Be sure to keep mouldy food and compost out of your pets reach!

Natural energy, mental focus and physical fitness

The perfect pair -
🍒 NingXia Red and NingXia Nitro 🍒

In today’s fast-paced world, everyone is looking for ways to gain an edge in their productivity and overall energy levels. This desire has contributed to an explosion in the energy drink market—a market that has become a $27 billion-per-year industry. With so much money on the line, many companies take the quick and easy route by slapping energy drink labels on simple combinations that contain copious amounts of caffeine, sugar, and other dangerous ingredients. These companies ignore the major underlying factors in low energy and proper nutrition!
This approach has garnered a rise in regulatory scrutiny, an increase in research, and the uncovering of energy drink-related health risks. Research on the ill effects of many of these energy drinks is published almost monthly; however, it appears to have little effect on the public. Sales continue to soar, while ER visits drastically increase.

So what can we do?

Let’s look at a couple of natural solutions to the energy dilemma:
NingXia Red® combines the extraordinary wolfberry superfruit with pure essential oils (Orange, Yuzu, Lemon, and Tangerine) in a powerful whole-body nutrient infusion. When taken daily NingXia Red replenishes energy levels and supports overall nutrition.

NingXia Nitro™blends pure essential oils (Peppermint,Spearmint, Black Pepper, and Nutmeg) with naturally powerful ingredients such as d-ribose, green tea extract, and B vitamins. These ingredients, in addition to a Nitro blend of vanilla, chocolate, wolfberry seed, and yerba mate, provide a lift to one’s mental clarity and focus, while also providing a surge of energy. Designed to be taken when a boost is needed and with less caffeine than a cup of coffee, Nitro is a perfect option for on-the-go use.
These synergistic products are designed to be the healthy answer to the energy question.
