Sudden Fever | sudden fever and he’s panting with pain and has redness in his skin or ears | Bell |
Bloat | Bloat can be a life-threatening condition for dogs. If your dog has colic, painful gas or torsion, take Carbo vegetabilis with you on the way to the emergency vet clinic … you might find by the time you get there, your dog is doing much better! | Carb-v |
Broken bones | Of course, you need to take your dog to his vet if you suspect he has a broken bone, but you can speed the healing in fractured bones, non or delayed union fractures, and pain from fractures with Symphytum. | Symph |
Red, Watery Eyes | Has your dog been running in tall grass and now his eyes are red? Conjunctivitis and irritated eyes respond very well to Euphrasia. | Euphr |
Urinary Tract Infections | Dogs that have burning and urging in the bladder respond very well to Cantharis. | Canth |
Blistered burns to the skin. | Minor burns and sunburn will respond well to Urtica urens. If the burns are more severe or the skin is broken, then use Cantharis. | Urt-uCanth |
Frostbite | Dogs can quickly suffer from frostbite to their feet or unprotected areas in the winter months. Agaricus works great for frostbite, especially to the tail, feet and ears. | Agar |
Shock | A dog owner’s worst nightmare is having their dog hit by a car. Nobody wants this to happen, but you can be prepared for the worst … Aconite is the go-to remedy for sudden and overwhelming trauma … give it on the way to the emergency vet! And bring Carbo vegetabilis (also known as the corpse reviver) if he becomes cold and lifeless. | AconCarb-v |
Head Or Spine Injury | Once again, dogs can get into trouble fast, and it’s a good idea to be prepared!

Sriff getting | Stiff getting up after an active day, then Rhus toxicodendron (Rhus tox) is a great remedy to put the spring back in his step. If there is injury to the joints, then Ruta graveolens (Ruta grav) might be a better choice. Start with Arnica then move on to one of these two remedies to finish. | Rhus-tRuta |
Teething Pain | especially if there is greenish diarrhea. | Cham |
Puncture Wounds | Dogs are prime candidates for bite wounds and insect stings. For any type of puncture wound, Ledum (Ledum palustre) can help heal and prevent later problems. Historically Ledum has proven effective in preventing or stopping tetanus after puncture wounds. | Led |
