For all of us dog owners it is hard to watch our dogs suffer from parasites. I wrote an article about the different type of parasites there are and the remedies called “Natural Remedies for Canine Intestinal Parasites”. If you have time it can help you understand each parasite and the help your dog needs. If you are pressed fro time I can tell you that the following herbs can help eliminate the piratical problems in your canine’s intestine:
• Wormwood
• Wormseed
• Sage
• Herb of Grace
• Fennel seed
• Papaya leaves
• Neem
• Cloves

Mix one or two of the herbs (depending on the parasite) into wet dog food and feed them an abundance of the herb. This can help your dog on the road to recovery.

Home Remedy to get Rid of Skunk Odors!!

May 31st 2009 01:35

Oh man! Skunks are the worst! Especially in the summer when they are out and about and so are your nosey pets. What happens when those sweet little furry friends get sprayed by that foul smelling odor that makes us want to scream? Well, here’s a home remedy for you that will work better than, well, anything else. Of course it won’t get the entire smell out, but it will work to a significant degree.

First protect your hands with rubber gloves! Seriously! Then rub tomato juice (a lot of it) into the fur of the animal from head to toe… but don’t get it near their eyes. LEAVE it in for a few hours. When you rinse it out rinse it with vinegar. Rub it thoroughly into the affected area of the coat. Let stand for a few minutes and rinse well with warm water

Hi Lara. It does take some time. It can be dried throughout the night or during the day- depending on the amount it can take around 8 hours. Also, it depends on what you are making as to how much you'll need.
