Adopted dogs will have their issues, and Sadie has hers. She is the sweetest thing, but she did have severe separation anxiety. Upon me leaving, she would scratch and tear at doors and windows. She knows to go outside, but continued to have housetraining issues. She escaped my house jumping through screens and windows a number of times and eventually ripped up the carpet and tore off the door frame in my room just trying to get out. She wriggles out of almost any collar or harness when left for even a minute to run into a store. She was obviously getting extremely stressed and, along with having huge bills to pay for her damages, I felt terrible letting her feel so anxious. Last weekend I went and got a mix of flower remedies specifically for separation anxiety and I have noticed a HUGE difference. She has calmed down so much. She still has energy and is excited when I come home, but is not so stressed. My roommate forgot to put her in her crate when she left the house the other day (which I had to resort to after all the damage even though Sadie was strongly opposed) and when we came home she was out, but was content and nothing had been damaged. I give Sadie 8 drops of the oil 2x/day directly on her food (since I feed her 2x/day). The specific mix that I got includes: Aspen, Beech, Cerato, Chicory, Heather, Holly, Red Chestnut, 5-Flower Remedy, Sweet Chestnut, Vervain, Cat's Claw, Mariposa Lily, St. Johns Wort, Blackberry, Tomato, Snowberry, Cathedral Rock Vortex, Mt. Moran, Kinnickinnick, Fox. Feel free to mix and match and research the purpose of each essence and how it relates to your pet. You can get essences separately, or already mixed. I highly recommend!

My precious rescue dog "Sunshine" has OCD, the vet has used Cortisone shots, oral meds, I have tried bitter apple, Malaluca Oil, Tea Tree Oil, etc. The vet now wants to give her Prozac and I am dead set against giving her drugs. Does anyone have any suggestions that won't traumatize my poor dog, she has been so severely abused in her previous life and I don't want to hurt her in anyway. Thank You anyone!" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/Pets/anxiety-and-stress.html&name=RN_27723 /Pets/anxiety-and-stress.rss3 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 00:00:00 EDT [QUESTION] Dottiec from Richland, Indiana 47634 writes: "I have 2 outside dogs that have storm anxiety, this took place about 3 years ago when a tornado went through. Now when there is a storm in the area, they have fits and have even busted through the privacy fence that is on the west side of their pens. I live in the country and have a neighbor across the road that just got 2 labs pups, probably 6 months old, when they are outside, these same outside dogs of mine go crazy with anxiety about that. Trying to keep them calm has been trying and could use a home remedy that will work, these are big dogs. Malamute and a hound mix. My problem is, I need what ever that will work, I need it to work for several hours, can any one please help me?" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/Pets/anxiety-and-stress.html&name=MAGNESIUM_24523 /Pets/anxiety-and-stress.rss4 Thu, 26 Mar 2009 00:00:00 EDT Melissa from London, England writes: "dog anxiety/stress- Magnesium: I have a very nervy German Sheperd bitch. Lovely as she is her anxiety is causing problems with meeting new people/dogs. I obviously attract nutty animals as i also have a mare of a similar character, anyway, to cut a long story short i have heard amazing things about Magnesium in horses, basically when they get stressed out their bodys level of magnesium deprieciate, and magnesium is vital to keeping us 'calm and collected', call it natural prozac. It has been proven to help calm animals, i advise to buy a supplement rather than home dose as strength must vary. They do it for dogs too!!! It will only work if you're dog/horse has low magnesium levels (ie rather than simply not excercised/trained enough etc) obviously this could be checked by blood tests at the vet but apparently dosn't cause harm if fed, worth a go i say, im going to try it and will let you know the results. Nupafeed does it in tablet or liquid form for both animals.
