Like in homeopathy, flower essences for dogs are among the most widespread natural remedies used in effectively treating various dog health problems like canine behavioral issues and emotional imbalances. These essences are extracts taken from certain parts of different kinds of flowers, trees, plants, and bushes. In recent times, this alternative solution in supporting and maintaining holistic vet care among dogs has been gaining popularity. Lots of dog owners have reported positive results upon making use of flower essences on their pets.

How to Administer Flower Essences

There are several ways that can be done when it comes to administering flower essences to Fido. You can try dripping the extract directly into your pooch’s mouth or simply putting it on his snout to be licked off.

However, ensure that the dropper never touches his mouth or skin since this contact would contaminate the bottle of flower water.

In addition, you can also try putting a few drops of the essence in Fido’s drinking water or rubbing the extract on some exposed skin such as his paw pads, inner ear flap, or belly. See to it that the part where you apply the essence to is not broken or irritated. Finally, you can try pouring a few drops of the flower water in a clean spritzer, mixing it well with little distilled water, and then spraying the extract onto your pooch’s skin.
