NHV Naturally Healthy Pet Challenge was a fun ride for all participants
Promotions & Giveaways 2 min readIn May, we organized a fun challenge for our dog and cat friends on Instagram. With the help of 3 of our lovely dog parents, @TiffThePup, @chilly_chi_from_az, and @livinthecrazy, we organized a Naturally Healthy Pet Challenge and had some 24 cats and dogs share pictures of how they stay healthy.
Initially, we had thought we’d pick the best entry, but when they all came in so cute, it was impossible for us to decide. So we let our precious cat, Jonika do the honors. We know she loves to chew on paper clips and we have to literally keep all our paper clips sealed and hidden beyond her reach. So here’s how we used her love for paper clips to choose a winner.
Jonika’s lucky draw made the challenge even more fun! Little Ryot who won the challenge is a special dog too. She travels with her mom on outdoor adventures to raise awareness for an animal rescue called PAWS Chicago.
Recently our winner shared a lovely picture with us to show off her NHV supplies. Nicole, Ryot’s mom says that the Natural Anti-tick Target Spray has been handy in her outdoor experience. And the herbal mouth drops are keeping Ryot’s mouth smelling fresh (which is a surprise she says) and also keeping her gums and teeth healthy. She hasn’t had a chance yet to use her NHV Heal Care Ointment though. The heal care ointment is great to help with muscle discomfort and paw pad care. It can be rubbed on the paws and on sore limbs to bring soothing relief.
We are hoping to hear more from Ryot’s mom. But for now, we are just happy to see this little furgirl have a healthy fun time exploring the outdoors. Follow us on Instagram for more fun engagements and contests to participate in with your furkids!

Pest Support & Deterrents for Cats
In many animals, a pest infestation can cause more than an uncomfortable itch. Diseases, skin irritations, anemia, and intestinal parasites can be transmitted by the bite of a single parasitic insect. Exposure to fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes can harm both animals and humans, making pest prevention an important priority for any pet owner.
How NHV’s Flea Spray Supports Cats With Pest Infestations

This unique flea and tick spray for cats is made with antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-fungal, and astringent properties that work to soothe irritation caused by flea and other insect bites.

Dog Paw Pad Ointment for Burn Support
Paw pad injuries due to over-exercise are common injuries for active pups, especially on hot summer days. Running back and forth on rough surfaces like concrete, pavement, or gravel may cause tenderness, blisters, burns, and possible peeling in the pad skin. As a rule of thumb, if the surface is too hot to put the back of your hand onto it, then it isn't safe for your little one to be walking on it either. Dog paw pads are pretty tough, but they aren't meant for running on such hard surfaces for long periods of time. Don't feel bad if your fluffy friend has a paw pad injury and you didn’t notice right away because there may not be any symptoms until they are settling down at home later. Just like summer, winter can present some risks as well. It is easy for your pup's paw pads to get dehydrated, dry or cracked with dry, cold weather. The iconic blue/green salt that is sprinkled onto sideways and walkways can definitely cause ouchies in your furkiddo's paws. To avoid paw pad injuries, consider protective accessories like booties or shoes for your furbaby. Shorter walks, limiting time on hot surfaces and using a topical ointment for dog paws are other ways to prevent paw pad injuries.
How NHV’s Dog Paw Ointment Supports Paw Pad Injuries and More
Paw pad injuries can be minor scratches but sometimes the pads are so badly damaged that the surface of the skin begins to blister and peel away from the foot. These injuries can take quite a while to heal and cause a lot of pain and discomfort for your furkiddo. For more severe injuries, vet-prescribed antibiotics may be required. For less severe burns and scrapes, a topical ointment for dog paws like NHV Heal Care can help soothe inflamed skin and help decrease the risk of infection - your pup's paws aren't always the cleanest so they can be at a higher risk for a bacterial or fungal (yeast) infection.
Heal care for dogs contains ingredients like Arnica and St. John's Wort which are beneficial for a variety of issues from burnt paw pads to achy joints. Arnica is known for its ability to help sprains and joint discomfort by dilating blood vessels, increasing circulation to the affected area and enhancing recovery. St. John’s Wort is a cooling herb that has traditionally been used for reducing inflammation and promoting healing from injuries such as burns, bruises, sores, cramps, sprains and discomfort caused by nerve damage.
