Pets Have Emotions Too!

How exactly do the remedies work?
The Remedies offer a gentle means of relieving negative attitudes, and because they are prepared from flowers and trees, none of which are poisonous, they provide a harmless, non-habit forming system of healing. Animals will often react quickly and well to the remedies, so treatment is usually between 3 and 10 days. The aim of diagnosis is to establish the animal’s state of mind and to choose the appropriate remedies for them.

Please note: Bach Flower Remedies are safe and free of side effects, and there is no fear of overdosing. They are preserved in brandy however, so you should always dilute them before use. Seek veterinary advice if your animal is allergic to alcohol or is taking a medicine which is contraindicated with alcohol. Please note the remedies do not treat any medical conditions directly. Sick animals should see a vet first.

Larger animals- Ten drops per bucket of water or four drops on a cube of sugar.

If pets share water – remedies won’t have affects on other pets if they don’t need them.

Rescue Remedy

Simply give your pet four drops directly to mouth or in their food, water bowl or on a treat. It can also be rubbed directly on your pets nose, ear or paw. Choose what works best for your pet.

Rescue Spray
Just apply two sprays onto the animal’s skin. Do not spray in the eyes. Please consult a vet before use, particularly for exotic or small species.

Rescue Cream
Rescue Cream is a soft, non-greasy, lanolin-free cream. It contains Rescue Remedy and Crab Apple, which is chosen for its cleansing qualities. It is usually applied to physical problems such as skin disorders, rashes, minor cuts, bruises, etc.

There are many ways to give treatment bottle doses, so pick the one that suits you.

• Drip doses onto pads, paws, nose or ears so they will be absorbed through the skin or licked off.
• You can put four drops of the remedy mix on food or onto pet treats.
• If using a sprayer bottle spray in the mouth or around the pet.
• For larger animals put the drops on a cube of sugar, carrot or other acceptable snack.
