Valerian root as a calmer for dogs

I’m a great believer in natural remedies for my dogs and horses – apart from when they need antibiotics to kill bacteria! So is valerian root a good natural remedy as a calmer for nervous dogs, or in special circumstances like thunderstorms and fireworks?

Video

From Galgos Rescue Almeria.

The story of a tiny, incredibly fragile podenca puppy who was only 2 days old S when she came to us. She weighed just 308 grams. Today, that little girl has grown into a beautiful, healthy young dog weighing an amazing 8 kg! What an incredible journey she has already been on.

Yesterday it was time for another visit to the veterinarian, and once again Vida was an absolute star! She learns so quickly and continues to amaze us every single day.

With her microchip, European passport, and rabies vaccination, she has now completed the very last step in preparing for a bright future.

Never give up working with a fearful dog – the rewards are wonderful

Video

From Bev Farmer

Pepe .. the same dog a very different moment

For those who have recently joined us this is Pepe… a podenco born in the countryside with his 8 siblings, and their mother, for months trying to survive.. It left him with a deep rooted distrust and fear of humans. Once rescued he was completely shut down and if approached in his kennel would pee and poop himself and out of self preservation he was a fear biter. I’ve been working with him for 7 months now, and he is a very different dog..

Trust replaced fear, one day at a time.

Months of quiet, consistent kindness.

When a dog feels safe, everything changes.

This is why I never give up.

(It took me over 2 years working with a very frightened galga to gain her trust for her to become a ‘normal’ dog_never give up)
