Supercritical CO2 Extract Of Neem ~

If you would rather use Supercritical Neem Extract than neem bark powder, a dog that weighs less than 50 pounds should have one capsule every other day. Dogs over 50 pounds can handle one capsule daily.

Unfortunately, many canines are far from the fields where hunting and foraging are possible and most have gradually lost the proper instincts to forage with each domesticated generation. This has created significant nutritional deficiencies that threaten the health of our best friends.

A dog will eat grass or search for a particular herb when it feels the need to settle the stomach - to vomit or because more vegetables are needed in the diet. Be vigilent, however that your pet does not eat grass that has been sprayed with pesticides, otherwise it will get very ill.

Dogs eat grass because they crave greens as do other animals who eat vegetables counter to popular belief. They need the enzymes and a certain amount of chlorophyll which is the essence of plant life like blood is to our own bodies. Any green plant has a certain amount of Magnesium and is essential to both human and animal life, as they have dramatic healing abilities. Herbs can also be healing for dogs from dandelion to oregano and are used for different problems. Ginger for instance will settle your pet’s stomach if they have been sick or vomiting as it does with humans. Also, as we need vitamin D for optimal heath, have you ever watched dogs sunbathe for 10-15 minutes to get Vitamin D into their bloodstream? Many qualities for wellness are shared in both animal and human kingdoms.

I believe in a raw food species appropriate diet and following the principles of nature, dogs are not just raw meat eaters, they eat grains (few grains is better) and vegetables. I feed my dogs dry organic dog food, but supplement it with raw food like cucumbers, peas, tomatoes, beets, pineapple, sweet potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, and carrots. Each dog has its preferences and you will learn them because they will beg for the vegetables they like and spit out those they don't. However, there are harmful foods. I give small amounts of a particular vegetable. I sometimes feed leftover brown rice, but since I am not a regular grain eater this is upon occasion. Grains are received from the dry organic dog food.Vegetables can be easily added to your dog’s diet by selecting from the raw ones mentioned above. You can also steam, stew or lightly sautee veggies in olive oil like squash, sweet potatoes and especially pumpkin.

Next time you are chopping some raw veggies or preparing a smoothie for good health share some to your dog and see the benefits. Here is a healthy green smoothie recipe for dogs (and cats) you can make in minutes.
