Balance is important in life - and for your bitch, this is especially true when it comes to hormones.Aside from being fundamental to the amazing ability to create new life, female hormones are involved in a lot of the things that we love about our entire bitches, such as their caring nature and their strength of character. Those hormones naturally fluctuate but if the balance gets thrown off too far, it can cause problems.
Our natural herbal supplements are designed for different hormonal challenges – so whatever stage in life, we’ve got you covered!
If your dog experiences phantom pregnancies, unfortunately they may have a tendency to suffer season after season. Raspberry leaf can hep your bitch better cope with the hormonal changes that can lead to pseudo-pregnancies. Prevention is key so start giving our Raspberry Leaf Tablets at the beginning of a season for 12 weeks.
To help restore hormonal balance and avoid that ‘moody’ phase that many bitches suffer from, we would always recommend giving our Evening Primrose Oil. Available in capsule or liquid form and should be given daily after a season or phantom pregnancy to help her feel more like herself again!
We're often asked about phantom pregnancies and how to prevent them, however not many dog owners know what signs to look out for when their bitch may be experiencing a pseudo-pregnancy.
Plan ahead to make sure your bitch is in the best possible health. If you’re planning a litter, remember to give our Raspberry Leaf Tablets to help ensure labour runs smoothly. Popular with breeders, raspberry leaf has been part of herbal tradition as a birth aid for centuries and is still recommended today!
Following the birth, your bitch may experience mood swings and hair loss. This is the time to start giving our Evening Primrose Oil. These not only enhance the skin and coat but also help maintain normal hormonal balance.
