I always give my girls PULSATILLA & SEPIA alternating
each remedy, example: SEPIA 30c potency x 2 weekly...followed by PULSATILLA
200C potency X 2 weekly.
I give this from start of the season (this was a
regime that Richard Allport gave me for MARTHA years ago and it seemed to
work!) If you have forgotten to start this regime when the season commenced
and the phantom has started (and I find they generally "kick
In...hormonally speaking at about 3 weeks after season) then most
homoeopaths suggest that the best remedy is PULSATILLA 30c potency given x3
DAILY for about a week to 10 days
I have always found ARSEN ALB to be a good
constitutional remedy at such times and is good if they are feeling very
miserable (this worked well for my AN NA PAVLOVA and her owner) again 30C
potency 2or 3 X daily.
IGNATIA a good SADNESS remedy too. I have given this
2x3 x daily with good effect but I am told that it is common practice in
France by those who favour homoeopathic potions to be prescribed the
remedy as soon as the season FINISHES!...A weekly dose is given to the
bitch but the potency is 200X
I have not personally used the remedy LILIUM TIGRINUM
but some bitches ,those who seem worse at night but are NOT actually
producing milk etc, seem to benefit from it used every 4 hours ,potency 6c.
PHYTOLACCA is the chosen remedy for any BREAST
swelling ie mastitis, but hopefully you will NOT reach that stage!
Most of the 6C and 30C remedies you can obtain locally
BUT I personally always prefer to get my medicines directly from a
homoeopathic pharmacy like AINSWORTHs or HELIOS ,the latter is at Tunbridge
wells BOTH have good WEBB SITES and AINSWORTHs rare the BEST, from my own
experience in a good "turn around of service"
Finally and this is only on recommendation of a friend,
I have NOT actually used, it but a friend with BEARDIES when I was having a
bad do with TESSA suggested that a remedy called BITCH ORIOPLAT made by
CANINE NATURAL CURES, Purley Surrey TEL 020 86688011 worked for one of her
BEARDIEs...(BUT think that you have to start at the end of the season).
All our girls are different and sometimes you have to
swap about a bit to find out what may suit each individual bitch.
these are only a FEW of MANY such remedies available
and that ALL HOMOEOPATHY MUST RELATE TO THE ANIMAL & ITS PERSONALITY AS WELL
AS THE PRESENTING SYMPTOMS....too many give up when they find that just one
or two remedies have not worked for them, in all probability an alternative
may, Homoeopaths, both veterinary & human can often prescribe suitable
alternatives which in the long term, a consultation with such, may work out
less expensive in the long term than either medications provided by the
regular vet, or The "Hit & Miss" trials from either buying over the counter
homoeopathic remedies or the many "mixes" now provided as the "Alternatives"
money spinners certainly, that have become so popular from many commercial
companies now involved in the "Animal Marketplace".
GOOD LUCK.
SYLVIA.
