You can treat most common dog illnesses with homemade, natural remedies. In most cases you can use items that you already have around your house, though some of the recipes call for herbs or ingredients that you may need to purchase. In addition to being less expensive than most commercially sold remedies, many pet owners believe that natural is better for the animal and for the environment.
1. Bad breath
Mix shredded carrot, lime juice and half a cup of chopped fresh mint. Your dog may eat this as a treat if you put the solution in ice trays and freeze before giving to him or you can mix it in with his dry food. Try a variation of our Pupsicle minis recipe by adding some lime juice and fresh mint.
2. Car sickness
Grate ginger and add it to homemade peanut butter dog treats. Try adding a little grated ginger to our Peanut butter barks or Paw-tassium poppers recipes.
3. Constipation
Adding a little pureed pumpkin to his food will help prevent and cure constipation. You can either puree fresh pumpkin or use canned pureed pumpkin. Try our Pumpsicle, Pup-kin pie and Howl-o-ween cupcake recipes.
5. Diarrhea
Add a little plain pureed canned pumpkin to his food.
6. Flea repellent
7. Gas
Give 1/4 teaspoon plain yogurt to small dogs, 1 teaspoon to dogs 15-20 pounds, and 1 tablespoon to large dogs. Raise their food dish to eliminate air digested while eating. For some fun homemade dog treats with yogurt in them, try these recipes: Yogurt delight, Banana-nilla chillers and Lamb-tastic stew.
8. Insect Bites and Stings
