I am all about some Western Medecine but there are plenty of great, natural remedies for many things.

There are so many things we can give our animals that won't hurt them. <br /><br />You are awesome for doing that research for those doggies. It breaks my heart to even read it, I can't imagine how you felt seeing it.<br /><br />xoxoPandorah's Boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17675389717822828644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-40679685720578831612010-03-23T18:47:10.436-05:002010-03-23T18:47:10.436-05:00Joe - Amen brother...

Ms. A - ...Joe - Amen brother... I hate skeeters...<br /><br />Ms. A - We can cry together.<br /><br />Bendigo - I agree, I think we are pretty blithe about what we do to animals sometimes. We act like it's okay to use harsh chemicals on them that we wouldn't use on ourselves.<br /><br />Jerry - Hope it works as well for you as it has for me!<br /><br />Sarah - I know! I'm learning so much about natural cures. That's why I'm so keen to know what our forefathers knew about this stuff. Sometimes natural stuff works better.<br /><br />ABAO - Lavendar oil costs about $10 for a small bottle. It lasts a while though. I take a Home Depot spray bottle, fill it halfway with water and put probably 20 drops of the oil into it (however much it takes to give it a pretty strong lavendar smell but not overpowering). So with that one bottle you can spray a lot. The lavendar just dissuades fleas from coming around, it doesn't kill them. The cedar oil kills them.<br /><br />I forgot to mention that there's also Capstar pills. They don't hurt your pet, but the fleas look like someone squished them with a brick, they just die and fall off... it's AMAZING. It only kills the fleas that are on the animal so you have to combine it with a treatment to kill fleas around the house too. It didn't hurt Gracie AT ALL, and they have it for cats and dogs.<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Novartis-Capstar-Flea-Treatment-Blue/dp/B00028ZLU4 <-- (this is just so you can see the info, you might find a better price somewhere else)Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16843060336452856402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-44773128651842199492010-03-23T14:03:35.024-05:002010-03-23T14:03:35.024-05:00I might have to try lavender oil....
