Thanks for these Les - these are useful to print off and pop in to the dog medical box :-)

I always have Charcoal tablets in my "box", if a dog gets the rumble tums I give 4/5 charcoal tablets and it clears up with a couple of house. Also I have Manuka honey 10+ which is brilliant for upset tums, restoring the natural balance after AB's and if they get a cut or wound put some into the wound/cut and it heals within days.... manuka honey is like a wonder drug...

Forgot to say propalis cream for sores, burns, scrapes, and you can also get propalis liquid which if put onto wounds also heals them very quickly.

Oh wow - good tips thanks Lynn.

Perhaps Mar can make this a sticky along with the Bach Flower thread - pretty please Mar

BTW Acidophilus is also good for restoring good bacteria in the gut. It is like live yoghurt only you would have to eat bucket loads to get as much.

Most need to be kept in the fridge once opened.

I am thinking and planning, especially w/plants or flowers, possibly reverting back to Bach flower tinctures for a friend's border collie, named Maggie. She's always been very spooky, skiddish, and I thought when I boarded her for 2-3 weeks at 3 months old then, that she'd become a fear biter or nearly...she has, and (my friend named Cheryl, also) stopped by today while Boris and I were fishing to ask what she might do...I think there were at least two essences I would try, and I really don't think its her thyroid either. She's very smart and responsive but you have to be wary if she doesn't know you, w/me, just alert, so avert;) To calm before a reaction and I told Cheryl (friend) to continue utilizing a crate inside the home when other than the family is home until more research and ordering if we cannot find the plant/herbs locally in the field...any suggestions?

[greyghost]

Spooky to me suggests Aspen. Aspen is for anxiousness and unknown fears. If she has known fears then it is Mimulus.

Not seeing the whole picture it is difficult - maybe Holly is the other one.

Holly is always a good opener anyway if there are many issues.

Cheryl I have added to the original list of Bach Flowers remedies for animals - take a look here:

Thanks Lesley:)

I printed out the calming signals for her, and am suggesting; Aspen, Cherry Plum, Holly, Mimulus and Rock Rose. If I had to choose 2, which would you recommend? I'll have to remind her again that she's got a "working breed" and make sure she understands something must be done w/Maggie, a job of some sort, like working w/her sheep regularly, even if its a very short time period but often. I think "the whole picture" is mostly no job for Mags and also not socialized to enough as a pup, they live out in the country and have customers/visitors since they run a couple businesses like greenhouse and aquarium seasonally.

[greyghost]

You don't have to choose 2. Use the stock bottles to make up a solution of up to 7 but be aware that less can sometimes be more.

From Bach Flower Therapy - The Complete Approach by Mechthild Scheffer:

How many Bach Flower Remedies may be taken at one and the same time?

According to the Bach Centre, a maximum of six or seven. The principle however is not 'the more the merrier', but rather 'less is more'.

Very much as in classical homeopathy, the energetic impulse of a single flower will have a deep and more profound effect than six different impulses in a bunch. The correctly chosen single Remedy, most appropriate to the current problem, will usually also make any lesser symptoms that may be present disappear.

On the other hand experience has shown that severe emotional states may temporarily require more than one or two Remedies, even more than six.

[greyghost]

Not much help am I. That's because I am not an expert and it is just an interest. Kinesiology would sort the correct Remedy.

Would you say his reactions are fear based?

One thing I will say is that Cherry Plum, Rock Rose, Aspen and Mimulus are all from a similar group i.e. anxiety/fear.

I'm non the wiser at the moment.

[juscanis]

Once I gave Rock Rose (recommended by a friend) and my dog had no changes. Than I asked a friend that uses a lot of flowers therapy to dogs and he said Rock Rose is more for people that have panic, and the best for animals are the other ones.
I'm giving now Rescue Remedy and Aspen + Mimulus + Dill several times a day to my girl and she is too much better. She is a Dobermann that feels too much afraid in the car, when there's a lot of noise or when she is in strange places with lots of strange people. She was better with a lot of work, but I felt something else was necessary and went to flowers therapy - that's working!!!

You can add to the list Silecea 30c. to eject foreign objects.

Thank you so much. It is a great resource. I will bookmark it.
I even tried some of the remedies and they worked fine.
