Relax all of my nervous patients 放鬆我所有緊張的病人


“...我在工作時我愛用Chill-Out ...這噴霧真的有助於放鬆我所有緊張的病人讓我可以順利幫狗狗檢查 - 我的客戶也發誓Chill-Out幫助他們狗狗放鬆.  我用Chill-Out 在我的波爾多犬,Margaux,當長時間乘坐汽車裡令她會有點焦慮. Chill-Out 絕對能放鬆我的治娃娃,Seaweed,他雷雨時有恐懼症. Chill-out 也可適當的蒂到有患分離焦慮症的狗或在其他壓力的情況下."

By Jennifer Forsyth, VMD

"...I love to use while I’m at work are Chill-Out for the dogs ...These sprays really help to relax all of my nervous patients before they get their exam – and my clients swear that it also helps them to relax.  I use Chill-Out for my Dogue de Bordeaux, Margaux, during long car rides where she has a little bit of anxiety.  And it definitely relaxes my Chihuahua, Seaweed, during his thunderstorm phobia.  This would also be appropriate to use for dogs that have to deal with separation anxiety or other stressful situations.

I liked Mellow Out and I would use it again 我好鐘意 Mellow Out 我會再用


" ... 我地都知道 Leroy 有問題, 不過最過Leroy會有過於緊張 / 急燥問題.  佢偶爾都有這些問題,但在過去的幾個星期中,  他有更激烈啲緊張 / 急燥問題.  當佢有問題啲時後, 他會在每個人/ 狗的空間.   他會舔我, Plunger 或 Sherman, 而佢係會舔唔停的.  佢亦會跳.  佢會追緊佢啲目標, 呼吸會变得急速, 就好似跟踪一樣.  然後佢會躺在地上,  盯著你, 呼吸沉重.

這是相當惱人的.  因此我決定給他幾滴 Mellow Out. 對於Leroy 的大小我給他6-10滴在他的舌頭. 我選擇了把直接滴在他的舌頭上,而不是他的食物,因為他是很挑食.

我沒有立刻注意到分別, 但在約1/2小時後我注意到他安定下來.  第二天, 我再試了一次,  而又再有相同的正面影響.

我好鐘意 Mellow Out 而我亦會再用. ..."

".... Leroy has issues, we all know that, however recently he has been having overly anxious issues. He goes through these issues occasionally but over the last few weeks they have been kicked into over drive. When he has these overly anxious bouts he is in everyone’s space. He gets into licking modes where he is licking me, Plunger or Sherman and he just won’t stop. He jumps. He will also follow his target of choice everywhere, breathing heavy, almost like he is stalking you. Then he will just lay there and stare at you, breathing heavy.

It’s quite annoying to say the least. So during his last bout I decided to give him a few drops of the Mellow Out. For Leroy’s size I was to give him 6-10 drops either on his tongue, on a treat, or in his drinking water. I chose to put the drops directly on his tongue instead of on his food because he is a picky eater.

I didn’t notice a difference right away but within about 1/2 hour I did notice that he settled down. I tried it the next day and it had the same affect on him. It seemed to take the edge off.

I liked this product and I would use it again. ..."

Q&A: Separation Anxiety 分離焦慮


我地大陪份時間都需要離開屋企工作而有時要離開多過 12 鐘, 有些還需要经常出差而要跟的隻分開.  分離尤其對年輕的狗艱難. 

Most of us work away from home and sometimes we are away for almost 12 hours a day, some of us also require to travel and are separated from our lovely dogs often.  All these separations are very tough for your dogs especially for younger dogs. 

問

我10個月大的混種拉貝拉多已經有分離焦慮的問題. 我閱讀了很多書, 分離焦慮症可導 致自殘. 在我的狗的情況下,當她要獨處時 她會很緊張引至她得到了皮疹和刮傷得很厲害(有時出血)... 我堅信在整體醫學 (holistic Medicine), 尤其是有關情緒健 康. 我看你有各種各樣的花精,哪一個你會 建議給我的狗嗎?  在此先感謝!

Question:

My ten-month old lab mix has developed separation anxiety issues.  I have read separation anxiety can lead to self-mutilation, in my dog's case, when she's left alone she stresses out so much that she gets rashes and scratches herself badly (to the point of bleeding)....I am a firm believer in holistic medicine, especially for emotional health. I see you have a variety of flower essences, which one would you recommend for my dog? Thanks in advance!

答

很抱歉聽到你的小狗的分離焦慮問題. 我們確實有兩種花朵治療法的花精專用在這些情況下.

我們的 Independence - 獨立信心, 有助於緩 解分離焦慮產生 當狗隻要跟主人, 母親或 狗群分開時. 它涉及遺棄和排斥的問題由源 頭着手。

其次,Obsess Less  - 緩和強迫症 有助於平息對強迫行為的 傾向. 對於無原故自我毀滅或自殘的事件有 幫助.

希望這些資料有用的。你可以找到我們網站http://www.holistichorsecare.com/products/catalog/flower-essences-%E8%8A%B1%E6%9C%B5%E6%B2%BB%E7%99%82%E6%B3%95 上看全部細節。祝您和您的小狗最好的!

Sorry to hear about your puppy. We do have two Flower Essences that work great on cases like this.

Our essence Independence helps to ease separation anxiety when being removed from an owner, mother or herd members. It addresses issues of abandonment and rejection, to work from the source.  

Secondly, Obsess Less helps to calm the tendency towards obsessive-compulsive behavior. For incidents of self-destruction or self-mutilation, chewing, licking, and scratching without cause.

Cris-Ease helped this aggressive dog, 緩解危機幫了這隻狗


"Cris Ease - 緩解危機 - 俄亥俄雅典的犬隻收容所的另一個成功的故事 ... Buster 是一隻黑色混種拉貝拉多犬, 他被主人捨棄因為主人“怕他會咬男性朋友”. 他咆哮著及非常害怕他的狗寵. 再次,我又再–次要用 Cris Ease - 緩解危機 , 加入他的水.  第二天,他多一點信任我及終於來到籠門口當我坐下籠門旁.  那一天我再加精華到水, 第三天我能幫他戴上狗帶和他出外,  最後我再加 Cris Ease - 緩解危機 多一天, 然後我們成為好朋友. 我們能夠證明他與每個人和其他狗都可相處, 及最後他是能去了一個美好的家園!謝謝"






"Another success story with Cris-Ease and the shelter dogs in Athens County, Ohio...Buster was a black Lab mix surrendered by his owner because she was "afraid he was going to bite her male visitor." He was growling and afraid in the back of his kennel. Once again I turned to Cris-Ease and put it in his water.  The next day he was a bit more trusting a finally came to the kennel door where I sat. More essences in the water that day and on the third day I was able to put a leash on him and take him outside. I did it one more day and then we were pals. We were able to show that he was fine with everyone and other dogs and he was able to be adopted into a wonderful home!  Thanks!"

Q&A: Upset during thunder and lightning 雷電怕怕




你的愛犬會因雷電變得非常沮喪?你需要考慮如花精自然療法。


Does your dog have issue with thunder and lightning?  You need to look into an all natural remedy such as Flower Essences.  


Question:
We have an 8 year old Cairn Terrier who gets very upset when there is thunder and lightning. Do you have any suggestions on how to calm during these storms?
Question submitted by Eva Garin

問:

我們有一隻8歲的凱恩梗犬. 當有雷電,佢變得非常沮喪. 你有任何建議,如何令佢在風暴中平靜些?




Answer:

Hello Eva,

I had a Jack Russell Terrier, years ago, who was petrified of thunder storms. I did not know where to turn until I started using a product called "Mellow Out".  Are you familiar with flower essences?  They were developed by a doctor many years ago in England who realized that many illnesses were rooted in emotional upsets.  The "Mellow Out" is a blend of essences to help calm and settle agitated animals.  It worked like a charm on my little girl.  After a few months, I found that I did not even need to use it anymore for that reason.  

I will just suggest that you use it when you hear the weather report, if you can.  It takes 1/2-1 hour to work....so the storm can be long gone if you give it to them as the storm starts. Easiest thing to do is to put it into the water bowl so they can free drink it throughout the day.

Behavior Modification in a Bottle: Flower Essences have historically been used to balance and harmonize any emotional, psychological and spiritual states, these blends have been specifically formulated to deal with issues that large and small animals deal with.  They are easy to administer, safe to use during competition and will not conflict with any other protocols. These blends are "Issue Specific" not animal specific.

Mellow Out Blend Helps to calm the nervous or jittery animals who may be moody or irritable or on edge all the time. For overly anxious and anticipatory animals who tend to lose control easily. Great to use prior to competition, during thunderstorms or firework displays. Never leave home without it.

Looking forward to being of help to you.
Kind regards Stacey

您好伊娃,

幾年前我也有傑克羅素梗, 他也被雷雨嚇呆. 我不知道怎樣辦直致我開始使用稱為“Mellow Out - 變得和藹”產品.  

你對花朵治療熟悉嗎?花朵治療是由英格蘭一位
醫生很多年前意識到的,多疾病都植根於情緒問
題.“Mellow Out -變得和藹” 是一個融合的 花精以幫助平息激動 的動物.   

“Mellow Out - 變得和藹” 對我的狗女非常 有效. 幾個月後, 我發現我不再需要使用.

我會建議你使用它當你聽到天氣報告. 花朵 治療需要30分鐘至1小時前用.   最簡單的是直 接加入“Mellow Out - 變得和藹” 到水裹, 等他隨時可以飲.




改善性格在一瓶內: 花精歷來被用於任何情緒, 心理和精神狀態的平衡和協調,這些混合物已專門制定處理大和小動物的問題. 花朵治療 是容易處理及非常安全, 比賽也可用及不會 與任何其他協議有衝突. 這些混合物是 “問題特定”不是動物特定.




Mellow Out - 變得和藹 混合花精幫助平息緊張 的動物,動物有的時間可能是喜怒無常或急躁. 對於過度焦慮的動物往往容易失去控制.  可以在比塞前用, 用於雷雨大風或煙花匯演的 時後.  每家也要有!

Pets have emotional issues make training them difficult. Much of the "bad" behavior we see in dogs caused by emotional imbalances, fears, and past experiences that have affected the animals’ psychological states. Getting to the root of your pet’s emotional issues will allow you to address them and make training easier and less stressful for you and your pet. The key is to understanding what’s behind the behavior you are trying to change.   寵物有情緒及行為問題,會令朝培訓他們為很難何事。 一般“壞”的行為是情緒失衡,恐懼,和過去的經驗,影響動物的心理狀態。明白你寵物的情緒及行為問題的根源,讓你能更解決這些問題,使培訓更容易。

Flower essences are infusions of fresh flower blossoms to create an extract. Each flower essence contains the sun-infused, liquid energy of healthy flowers picked at the peak of bloom and captured in pure water. This 'potentized' liquid from various plants is used to create each unique blend, tailored to address a specific emotional issue. The different blends are issue-specific, to address the various emotional conditions that are creating the behavior problems.  花精從新鮮的花朵提取。每朵花的本質,包含太陽注入,健康的花朵液體能源採摘盛開的高峰期,並在純水中捕獲。這 "potentized" 從各種植物的液體是用來建立獨特的花精混合的, 以解決一個特定的情感問題。不同的混合具體問題,解決各種不同的行為問題。

Flower essences are an amazing training tool, they can also help to eradicate long standing fears, trust issues, and aggressive attitudes making it more pleasant to handle your pet.  花精是一個驚人的培訓工具,他們還可以幫助消除長期的恐懼,信任問題,並積極的態度處理您的寵物更愉快。




To ensure success, it is also important that the particular blend of flower essences you give your dog addresses the specific emotional issue underlying the behavior.  It may take a few attempts to find the right essences.  However, when you find them, they work like a charm and will make your life and your animal’s life much easier. Botanical Animal Flower Essences come in 14 specific blends, including the following:

·        In Training™ - supports pets with lack of tolerance, impatience, defiance toward being asked to do something
·        Clear Thinking™ - supports pets with lack of focus, poor concentration, and poor memory
·        Easy Does It™ - supports pets with destructive behavior, demands for constant attention, or constant barking or whining 




為了確保成功,很重要選擇適合狗花精來配合你的狗的行為及情感問題。你有可能需要試幾個才能找到適合的花精。然而,當你找到適合的花精的時,花精會讓你的動物的生活更容易。我們的花精有14個特定的混合,包括以下內容:
