Hyperactive Pets

8 September, 2015

Hyperactive Pets: A Natural Approach. Hyperactive pets present in the form of excessive barking, aggression, excitability, obsessive personality, irritability, extreme nervousness or erratic behaviour, then this may not necessarily be due to inadequate training. These animals are often trying to tell you something or simply cannot help themselves or the way they feel due to outside influences. In these cases, any form of training seems to be totally ineffective. It can often be extremely beneficial to speak with an animal communicator to help find out why the animal is behaving in this way and what you can do about it. Poor…

Healthy Fast Food For Your Pets

8 September, 2015

You can provide Healthy Fast Food For Your Pets with little fuss to ensure they stay healthy and happy. We all know the old saying ‘you are what you eat’, and if this is the case, then it is no wonder that our loyal companions are suffering from such a variety of acute and chronic health complaints. Can you imagine living on take away food your whole life? Some animals have never eaten any fresh food, living on processed foods totally. It is certainly possible to do, but you could not expect to be feeling fantastic all the time on this…

Natrakelp

8 September, 2015

“My stock horse stallion sliced his front foot and was in a plaster cast for 7 weeks. The Vet said initially it may not heal up enough for proper use of his foot. When the cast was removed, his foot was still good and 5 & 1/2 months later he was galloping about the paddock with no sign of lameness and is back serving mares. The vet was amazed at the healing, & that the results were so good. I fed him NATRAKELP LIQUID SEAWEED 2 x daily of 2 tablespoons each feed then reduced to 1 tablespoon daily after…

From a Grim outlook to Grinning!

8 September, 2015

“I am just sending this to say a great big thank you to Greenpet for the wonderful advice and service. (Naturopathic consultation) I turned to natural therapies as a last resort to helping my daughters nine year old Australian Pony. Things were looking very grim. A couple of years ago he received a kick to the stifle from our other horse whilst playing. After consultations with the vets without much help – except for them wanting me to spend lots of money on really expensive tests. Things were going along quite well until he foundered on us in the spring…

Arthritis relief for Horse

8 September, 2015

Arthritis relief for Horse My 16 yr old horse has arthritis in both hocks and a tendency to put his back out a lot. I was told to retire him to trail riding duties as his working life was apparently over, he only dose prelim novice dressage, I wasn’t going to subject him to needles in the hocks or expensive medicines that MIGHT work. I purchased supplements recommended by you & have been using them for 4 weeks and the change in my horse’s movement and attitude towards his work is unreal. He actually uses his hocks now the stiffness is basically…

Horse Goes Crazy!

8 September, 2015

After losing my pony a few years ago I acquired ‘Dollie’, an Anglo Arab filly. At first she didn’t trust people and was very scatty but with in 6 months she became almost bomb proof in the paddocks and you could do anything with her. In fact, a learner was practicing on her, picking out her feet. She had been saddled and bridled, and she was so good everyone was amazed. ‘Dollie’ was a pleasure to have around right up until we moved her to more permanent grazing. Something sent her CRAZY! It was like someone had put a different…

Unpredictable, Dangerous Horse Saved

8 September, 2015

We have had Noah ten months. His previous owner had bought him for his wife as a novice rider’s horse. They gave me Noah with great caution as he had bucked, reared and succeeded in getting them off. He refused to float for them. He acted like a monster lived in that float so it took me two hours to load him when I first got him. Now loading was one area he has learnt to master since being with me but other behaviours stuck. Noah has always been a bucker, rearer, overexcited, spooky, tense, bolshy horse with a head…

Stiff, Lame and Spooky Horse

8 September, 2015

I fell for my Palomino Quarter Horse on our first ride. He was 14 years old and only 3 months prior to my owning him he had lived in Queensland. He was bred in South East Queensland and was broken in and trained to be a Reiner. His manners were impeccable but he was a very nervous horse and his shying was more like a very, very fast spin. I have owned him for nearly 4 years now and in that time we have had our issues (big time). Most of our troubles have been with his body, joints and…

Chronic Scouring Resolved

8 September, 2015

Scour Testimonial My Quarter Horse gelding has scoured for most of his life and no change of diet, Vet, Nutritionist or Herbalist has helped. Most foods and all supplements upset his gut and it has been a nightmare to work out exactly what the problem has been over the past 7 years. When he scoured, his behaviour got progressively worse and he became explosive, grumpy, unpredictable and could be quite dangerous to be around. When he wasn’t scouring he was awesome. I read Jenny Paterson’s book ‘The Key To Calm, Healthy Horses’ and realized it may be the rye grass he grazed that…

Dangerous Horse Now Calm

8 September, 2015

Dangerous Horse Now Calm This is a picture taken on Tue 12th May 2009 of 63 year old Ian Fergusson and his 10 yr old half Irish gelding. Up until about 6 weeks ago Monkey was one of those horses people categorise as ‘down-right dangerous’!! ‘Ferg’, well known in North Canterbury (NZ) has ridden all his life and was master of the Brackenfield Hunt for about 10 years. He acquired ‘Monkey’ as an ‘unbroken’ 4 year old with the idea of breaking him in and using him for general farm work, hunting and the odd show. Ferg thought Monkey had…

Belle’s Ross River Virus Recovery

8 September, 2015

Belle’s Ross River Virus Recovery In March 2009 our mare became very ill, legs swollen and stiff, and she could barely walk. She was diagnosed by blood test to have Ross River Virus … a bad case of it. Our vet said her recovery would likely be 18 months. I contacted Greenpet on the advice of a friend, we had an on-line consultation and placed an order. While we were waiting for the tonic and supplements to arrive, Belle worsened, and at one point my husband and I talked about euthanising her she was so bad. She developed Stress Founder, and…

Darcy’s Eye – 24 hours!

7 September, 2015

Image taken 3 June 2011, of ‘Darcy’s’ left eye. I came out to find my horse’s eye fully closed, unable to open it with swelling on upper lid. I bathed it with Greenpet Herbal Eye Wash and sprayed Greenpet Oxyeze Skin Spray. Later that day, I repeated this bathing and his eye was open slightly so I could then spray the Oxyeze into his eye, (from a distance) to get a fine mist into the eye. The next morning I repeated this as his eye was almost fully open with only a slight discharge in the corner. By the end of the next…

Sarcoids Testimonial

8 September, 2013

“In April of ’98, a friend gave me some salve…to remove some sarcoids on two of my horses. One on the nostril of one horse, and two on the under side of the barrel on the other horse. The nostril sarcoid was gone in three days, and the two barrel sarcoids were gone in ten days. A year later the horse with the barrel sarcoids developed yet another lesion on the opposite side of his mid line, and again treated it and it was totally gone in a week.”
