All Homeopathic Remedies have a number behind the name. Go for the 30 if you can get it. So it would read &#8216;Arnica 30&#8217; or &#8216;Aconite 30&#8217; on the bottle.<\/div>\n<div>\n<p align=\"left\">You shouldn&#8217;t eat or drink for a few minutes before and after taking Homeopathic Remedies otherwise they might not work. Elke crunches them up between two tablespoons and I lick the them of the spoon. They taste really nice. It&#8217;s really important that your human doesn&#8217;t touch the remedies when trying to give it to you otherwise they might not work!<\/p>\n<div>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong>Arnica<\/strong> we use for any kind of injury or physical shock. <strong>Arnica<\/strong> is brilliant for bruising, takes away the pain and helps heal muscle tissue very quickly. It&#8217;s also really good to take when you&#8217;ve been out on a walk for too long.<\/p>\n<p>We also use a combination remedy of <strong>Arnica \/ Hypericum \/ Ruta grav 200<\/strong> when I start to limp for whatever reason (We needed it a few times when I was growing quickly). A few doses one hour apart usually sorts the problem out.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong>Apis mel<\/strong> is a really good remedy for wasp stings or bee stings. My friend Jack had 6 wasp stings the other day &#8211; some of them in his ear flaps, poor lad, and he didn&#8217;t want to come out of his basket. But 10 minutes after <strong>Apis<\/strong> he came out and said hello and stuff.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aconite<\/strong> is an excellent remedy when you get <em>really<\/em> scared. It&#8217;s useful for <em>any <\/em>complaints that begin after a fright, any kind of shock. This is a great remedy to give during the <em><strong>Bonfire Night Fireworks<\/strong><\/em>!<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re not so scared but the noise of Bonfire Night gets you really worked up and excited (like me!) then <strong>Phosphorus<\/strong> is probably a better remedy for you.<\/p>\n<p>When I have a cut on my paws Elke bathes it with a <em>herbal tincture <\/em>&#8211; <strong>Calendula and Hypericum <\/strong>combined in a little bit of warm water. That&#8217;s really nice and I happily hold still for that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hypericum<\/strong> is a really good remedy when one of your claws gets injured or torn off. That can really hurt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Calc phos<\/strong> is a remedies for Airedale puppies that grow too quickly and are really thin. Combined with a natural diet it helps with the Calcium metabolism and helps build strong bones and joints.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symphytum<\/strong> is a remedy Mum&#8217;s used a lot for when Nelly twists or hurts her leg and it makes her limp. In fact Mum&#8217;s used it for Dad&#8217;s Frozen Shoulder as well and he got better very quickly. Symphytum is made from Comfrey or Knitbone (as it is also called). It has a special action on tissue that is injured or torn and will knit it together quickly.<\/p>\n<p>We successfully used <strong>Petroleum<\/strong> for my hot spot in September 07. Though it&#8217;s treatment must include diet changes as well. <strong>Petroleum 30<\/strong> also helps Nelly with her <em><strong>carsickness<\/strong><\/em>. Mum just gives her one tablet (crushed between 2 spoons and she licks it off)\u00a0 before we load up into the car and she is fine. Other carsickness remedies are <strong>Cocculus 30<\/strong> and <strong>Tabacum 30<\/strong>. All three can be made into a combination remedy (can be ordered from <a title=\"Helios Homeopathic Pharmacy\" href=\"http:\/\/www.helios.co.uk\/\">Helios<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t get injections\/immunisations, instead I get <strong><a title=\"Homeopathic Nosodes\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oakleigh-homeopathy.co.uk\/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=12&amp;Itemid=14\">Homeopathic Nosodes<\/a><\/strong>. They are remedies made from a specific disease process, tissue or a vaccine. They are prepared like all other homeopathic remedies in that they are subjected to a series of dilutions and succussions, rendering them very safe indeed. And they taste great!<br \/>\nYou can buy most of these remedies at any good wholefood or health shop. We&#8217;ve added a link to <strong>Helios<\/strong> our Homeopathic supplier for the last 18 years. They do mail order to anywhere in the world and they are really helpful if you have any kind of question. Helios can supply the <a title=\"Nosodes\" href=\"http:\/\/www.holisticpetsupplies.co.uk\/product_info.php?products_id=344\"><strong>Dog Vaccination Nosodes<\/strong><\/a> also.<\/p>\n<p>There are lots more Remedies and we will be adding them bit by bit.
