Essential Oils - Only the Best for Your Pet

Any pet owner knows that our furry friends are more than just pets. They are truly part of the family. We're willing to do anything for them - especially when it comes to health care. But more and more pet owners are becoming dissatisfied with conventional therapies. As a result, there has been a growing interest in alternative treatments. To cater to this clientele, veterinarians are turning to Young Living.


One such veterinarian is Dr. Mary Hess. According to Dr. Hess, "I think more veterinarians are getting into alternative care because clients are demanding it. In order to have a more complete veterinary practice, veterinarians are exploring other avenues to satisfy those people."



Monica Goldberg and her fourteen-year-old yellow lab, Oats, called on Dr. Hess when it was discovered that Oats had five tumors, one of which was cancerous. The tumors were surgically removed and Oats was sent home bandaged at the midriff. Conventional painkillers weren't providing relief. In fact, Oats was so uncomfortable she couldn't even lie down to rest. Monica applied a specially formulated oil blend that Dr. Hess provided to help relieve Oats' discomfort. According to Monica, "In a matter of minutes, I turned away from Oats and when I glanced back she was lying down asleep."



After the surgery, Monica treated Oats' incisions with essential oils and Animal Scents Ointment, which helped seal in the oil. To her surprise, Oats' suffering was minimized and her recovery was quick.



According to Dr. Hess, essential oils can be used on animals just as they would on humans. However, she recommends following a veterinarian's care in diagnosing specific conditions.

Our pets mean everything to us. Why not give them the best?

The above was extracted from an article in Essential Lifestyle Vol. 3 No. 1

Which Oils to Include When Creating Your Emergency Pet Care Kit 

Dr. Mary Hess recommends that every pet owner carry an essential oil emergency kit for pets. Based on her experience as a veterinarian, Dr. Hess suggests these ten Young Living Essential oil blends to keep pets feeling their best.



Thieves Oil Blend

This blend is perfect for attending to minor skin issues. Thieves is also utilized for addressing dental concerns. This blend is safe for kittens and puppies.



Melrose

When used in conjunction with R.C. and Raven, Melrose provides respiratory support. It can also be used on minor skin issues if Thieves cannot be tolerated



Di-Gize

The gastrointestinal system responds well to this blend. Nutmeg and ginger can be added for additional support.




Peace & Calming

If stress, fear, anxiety or other similar conditions are present, Peace & Calming can be used to calm a pet. If the pet is injured, Peace and Calming can relax the animal enough to administer other treatments. This blend can also be used on cats who are resistant to other forms of treatment for urinary problems or excessive grooming resulting from stress.




Purification

This blend is useful for external parasites such as fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes.




R.C. Oil (short for Respiratory Congestion)

Ideal for respiratory and urinary tract support. R.C. is practical for cats that require bladder fortification, which does not respond to conventional therapy. (It can be paired with Raven for added support.)




Raven

Also utilized for respiratory and urinary tract support, Raven is more powerful than R.C. and features essential oils not found in the latter. Combined, the two oils are highly effective.




Releive It

Especially beneficial for relieving discomfort, Relieve It can be be alternated with PawAway for a wider spectrum of pain relief.




M-Grain
Provides relief from head discomfort resulting from sinus pressure.




PanAway

With osteoarthritis common in older pets, PanAway is valuable for relieving discomfort and relaxing the muscles, ligaments, and tendons. This oil blend can be used alone or in addition to other essential oils that aid in general discomfort. Using a hot or warm moist towel over the area increases the effectiveness of the oils.


Cat Washroom - Be Discrete 

Merry Pet Cat Washroom / Night Stand Pet House

Amazon Price: $95.39 (as of 12/18/2009)Buy Now

A great solution to hiding the cat box and a nice piece of furniture.

Give Your Pet a Raindrop 

You can give your dog or horse a Raindrop. You must be much more careful though with cats. Humans, horses and dogs can walk away from a Raindrop technique feeling so much better, pain-free, immune supported.

We also have other products for your pets, which I recommend - one is Animal Scents Ointment for cuts and scrapes, and the other is Animal Scents Shampoo, which were both formulated specifically with your pet in mind. I personally LOVE this magical creme! I use it on my dry lips in the summer and it actually HEALS them - not just moistens them. I have a friend who healed an ulcerated place on her foot overnight! It's really magical, believe me you'll be very happy you tried this product.

Young Living Essential Oils Featured on NBC's Today Show 


Lehi, Utah

On the July 11 episode of NBC's Today show, Dr. Susan Wagner, an animal neurologist, along with animal behaviorist Dr. Terry Curtis promoted the use of Young Living essential oils.

During the Today's Pets segment, Dr. Wagner addressed the fear issues of several dogs including Bailey, a Labrador mix, who is afraid of water. Dr. Wagner suggested the use of lavender essential oil as a treatment option for Bailey's phobia, and explained that, "When we talk about essential oils, we're not talking about fragrances that you buy at a bath and beauty store-these are therapeutic-grade essential oils, and lavender is one of the most calming plants. So we can take a couple drops of oil and put it on a piece of clothing next to Bailey or even one drop and rub it between the hands and rub it down the back and it has an amazing calming effect."

When Today host Meredith Vieira asked if the lavender essential oil was enough to make Bailey not scared of water any more, Dr. Wagner, author of Through a Dog's Ear: Using Sound to Improve the Health and Behavior of Your Canine Companion, replied, "It will definitely help."

Thieves Household Cleaner is a chemical free all purpose household cleaner made with clove and cinnamon oils. It has been shown to kill 99.5% of bacteria. Thieves cleaner works very well in almost all household cleaning situations. Thieves cleaner takes its name from the Thieves oil blend which is formulated on a blend that kept grave robbers healthy during the Black Plague in Europe.

Fun Pet Things 

Ethel Olson submitted the following tip:

"My puppy was lost for three days and when she was returned, she was very anxious. I placed three drops of Peace & Calming essential oil blend in the palm of my hand and stroked the pads of her paws each day for three days. I also diffused Peace & Calming for several days. She settled down very quickly. The following week when we went to the groomer, she became anxious all over again. Out came the Peace & Calming and the groomer said she behaved better than she'd ever done in the past."

Review by By Pet Travelers

As pet owners who have been told that nothing could be done for a beloved dog who was dying, we found "Unexpected Miracles" to be an uplifting and educational book on the virtues of holistic medicine for pets and the value of not giving up. Written by a vet, the book presents a series of vignettes detailing the stories of pet owners and their pets as they struggled with various illnesses ranging from mundane allergy issues to end-of-life struggles. The book also details the author's journey from a near-skeptic to full blown believer in holistic medicine for pets. Over and over, the message is "don't give up" and "try a different type of treatment" as the stories unfold. Realistically, not all the stories have storybook endings--indeed, pets do die, and sometimes there is nothing medically to be done. More often than one would realize, however, pets do make miraculous recoveries using alternative approaches when traditional vets have given up. Those stories provide hope for all of us who will face these issues with our pets multiple times over our lifetime, and it is gratifying to know that there is someone like Dr. Shawn who cares enough to try anything for pet owners who are looking for that miracle. While the book is close to 300 pages, it is an easy and quick read. Highly recommended.
