Herbs

Herbal remedies for dogs, cats and horses come in various forms depending on what requires treating and the animal itself. Usually a number of herbs are combined in a formula in order to address the body as a whole. Why it is not a good idea to buy something from the health shop yourself.

  • possible interaction with medication

  • the need to combine herbs in order to treat the whole body

  • not all herbs combine together well

  • animals are not given the same quantity as a human

  • some herbs are toxic to animals, especially cats
