The reason? So many animal-guardians try homeopathic combination remedies, and the number is staggering and scary!Sometimes I literally have my mouth drop to the floor when I see how many combinations clients have tried or continue to try. Some have great success, while others don’t see the results they hoped for.Don’t get me wrong: there’s absolutely nothing wrong with combination remedies. They have their place in supporting an anim...

They trot in confidently, recognise familiar staff, enjoy the company of other animals, and settle quickly into the boarding routine.For other pets, however, staying in kennels or a cattery - especially for the first time - can be deeply unsettling.Why Kennels and Catteries Can Be Stressful for PetsImagine sud...

But for our pets, it can be an entirely different story.I remember when my dogs used to become so unsettled at the sound of constant door knocking and children shouting, “trick or treat!” Their bodies would tense, ears would perk, and every knock seemed to send a jolt through them. My cat, Harley, would vanish completely - usually retreating to his favour...

Left unaddressed, anxiety can deeply impact your dog's wellbeing, behaviour, and overall happiness.The most prevalent form? Separation anxiety. Whether it’s a few minutes or a few hours, many dogs struggle the moment their beloved humans walk out the door.What Causes Separation Anxiety in Dogs?Certain dog breeds are naturally more prone to anxiety, especially intelligent and high-energy w...

And it’s not just “bad behavior.”As an animal homeopath, I’m here to share something fascinating with you: when your dog or puppy eats indigestible objects, they might be telling you exactly what they need.Recently, I noticed my own 6-month-old puppy eating things like wood, pumice, and flax bushes. What looked like strange (and a little concern...

But what many of you may not realize is that these treatments, while effective for fleas, is putting not only your fur-baby and family at r...
