Both dogs and cats often fall victim to minor cuts, scrapes, bites and stings- especially those with outdoor lifestyles and adventurous natures! Cuts and scrapes, abrasions, insect bites, and other mishaps are often a common occurrence, especially in active pets.
Most of these little injuries heal fairly quickly on their own and without long-term adverse effects, especially in healthy pets with strong immune systems. However, it is important to care for these wounds appropriately and this is where nature has all the answers!
How can natural remedies help?
Certain herbs are excellent for soothing the skin after everyday minor mishaps experienced by dogs, cats and other pets, thereby supporting comfort and a quick return to normal. Natural remedies have been used by herbalists for thousands of years and can be of great benefit to your pet.
