Natural Anxiety Relief for Archie and Buddy: Pin the Tails Giveaway Winner
Promotions & Giveaways 3 min read
Lesstress can even help reduce destructive behaviors.
Back in the holiday season, pet parent Lindsey was one of the lucky winners of NHV’s Pinterest Giveaway ‘Pin the happy Tail’ contest that ended on December 15, 2017. This means she got to pick a three-month supply of supplements for her lucky pup, Archie- a half retriever/half Dachshund mix, whose unique characteristics absolutely melt our hearts.
We found out Archie has a brother named Buddy, so we gave Lindsey a few options for the boys. NHV carries a range of herbal blends for various health concerns. From hip and joint health, digestion issues, skin and coat conditions to something that typically addresses a body function like heart, kidneys, and lungs. They are both generally healthy, with no immediate health concerns. Archie had some trauma from his previous life, and both boys needed a natural spray to keep the ticks away, and some omega-3 fish oils for overall health and vitality.
I’m also very excited to have this opportunity to try out some of your products as the prize! Archie is a shelter adoption and has some latent Doggy PTSD from his previous owners. I think Lesstress would be a great product for him to try. Additionally, the Target Spray for fleas and ticks deterrent seems like a great choice to try when the warmer months come around. Another excellent option would be the Omega 3s, and you are quite right, his back will suffer one day 🙁 even though he’s a big version of a Dachshund, I still have a set of stairs up to the bed. I think about IVDD all the time, thank you for that recommendation as well, I think that one would be excellent to start him on. Of course, if I asked Archie (and his partner-in-crime, Buddy, a solid black Beagle/Boxer/Lab/Chef’s Salad combination), both dogs would see the delectable bags of salmon and turkey treats and ever-so-politely stand on both hind legs begging for a some of those!
It’s been a little over a month, so we are eager to see the calming effects and benefits that the herbs will have on these boys at the start of their holistic journey. We will be sure to keep in touch and provide updates on these two cuties.
HOW DOES NHV LESSTRESS WORK?
NHV Lesstress is an herbal formulation that acts on the nervous and immune systems to help to reduce anxiety, hyperactivity, and excitability. Lesstress can even help reduce destructive behaviors. It is a great supplement to use for various forms of nervousness, stress, and anxiety, like separation anxiety, loss of a furry friend or addition of a new pet, special events or celebrations (fireworks), and during illness (stress can cause conditions to worsen). Lesstress also helps to boost the immune system.
Petomega-3. In the case of alleviation of arthritic discomfort in pets, fish oils help through their powerful anti-inflammatory effects. AA (arachidonic acid) is the most powerful precursor for pro-inflammatory mediators of discomfort. IVDD (as Archie’s breed is susceptible to), is an uncomfortable condition where the cushioning discs between the vertebrae of the spinal column either bulge or burst (herniate) into the spinal cord space, causing discomfort, weakness, and muscle spasms.
Target Spray helps your pet rid itself of fleas, ticks, lice, and mosquitoes. Its soothing herbal formulation deters insects and calms skin irritated by the inevitable scratching bugs cause. This antiseptic spray can help prevent hair loss and secondary infections.

- May reduce hyperactivity and destructive behavior
- Supports healthy immune function
Natural Dog Stress Reliever Supplemental Support
With a heightened sense of hearing and smell, small events that seem mundane to us can be terrifying and stressful for your dogs. Sometimes the stress is from the ride to the office, or maybe they are missing their human companions. This all contributes to changes in behavior like excessive panting, drooling, sweaty paws, dilated eyes, pacing, excessively shedding, or just completely shutting down. Some dogs become so stressed that it may lead to fear and aggression.
Other forms of stress in a dog’s life include:
- Working dogs that are pushed too hard
- Flying on a plane
- Special events (eg. fireworks)
- Staying in a shelter
- The loss of an owner
- The loss or addition of a furry playmate
- Going to a new home
- Moving
In addition to panting, excessive barking/whining, chewing on themselves, shivering (when it’s not cold), panicked tail wagging, or tense muscles, stress can also cause GI tract issues such as diarrhea or vomiting.
The key to a healthy pup is balance. Too much or too little activity can be harmful, as well as too much or too little socialization. A balanced, clean diet also helps maintain the body and the mind. If your dog is susceptible to stress, you can use calming herbs like those found in NHV Lesstress. This formulation gently acts on the nervous system and immune system to provide a natural dog stress reliever.
How NHV’s Natural Dog Stress Relief Eases Stress and Anxiety
For stressful experiences such as separation anxiety, the loss or addition of a furry friend, special events (eg. fireworks) and illness (stress can cause conditions to worsen), the natural (non-addictive) sedative properties of Lesstress gently relax the nervous system and endocrine system. Ingredients like Chamomile, Passion Flower and Lemon Balm work to calm nerves while ingredients like Reishi, Eleuthero, and Echinacea Angustifolia are very beneficial for helping the body adapt to stress and illness and stimulate healthy immune function.
