Holistic Remedy for Food Allergies and Immune Support in Cats
For us at NHV, being a truly international company comes from within, starting with our multicultural team of humans. We usually feature our office pups, and let’s face it, we can’t compete with their adorableness. But today, we’ll talk a little bit about our diverse team of pet experts from all over the globe, of all ages, different backgrounds, and part of the LGBTQ+ community. And how we all came together to help furmilies like yours!
My Personal Experience as an International NHV Team Member
Hi there, my name is Julia Carneiro, a marketing and communications specialist from Brazil. In 2019 I left a role of prestige in my home country to start over in Canada. I moved in search of a better work-life balance. And for me, that meant doing something that would make me proud every day.
Pulling from these personal experiences, we try our best to help sick pets from all over the globe feel better with natural support.
As a young reporter, I had a couple of opportunities to write about animal health and wellbeing. A subject I have always been passionate about. Needless to say, I have been a pet parent my whole life. I always find a way to surround myself with cats, dogs, and sometimes even tarantulas and opossums. So when I saw the opportunity to help animals from all over the world, I jumped right in.
But moving to a different country and entering a new culture comes with many challenges. So it meant a lot to me to be part of a multicultural team and know that my coworkers at NHV truly understand what I was going through. Every day we speak to customers from around the globe, and no matter what their country of origin, religion, or sexual orientation, the one thing that brings us together is the love and care we share for our furry friends.
A Truly International Company and Multicultural Team
As a pet parent myself, when I still lived in South America, I often struggled to find local natural products that could help my allergy-prone Jack Russel Terrier, Flik. So I would gladly pay international shipping for North American products that could offer some relief to his constant itching. And I believe I can speak for the rest of the office when I say that we all truly understand the need to go above and beyond to give our little ones the best life.
Pulling from these personal experiences, we try our best to help sick pets from Australia, Japan, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Europe, and everywhere in between feel better with natural support. Through our international shipping options and our distribution partners on the ground, we are able to reach so many of our customers and get them the supplements they need. Know someone who might want to be a local distributor at an international location? Let us know – we love it when you help us spread the word!
So if English isn’t your first language, and you’re not sure whether you should reach out to us, please know that we also come from different backgrounds. Are you ready to order from one of our international resellers but want a personalized recommendation? Please know that our multicultural team of pet experts is here for you. Lastly, we would love to answer any questions about international shipping or local resellers. So please click below to start a chat with us. We look forward to hearing from you!

Discomfort and Appetite Support for Cats
Yucca is used in cat food as well as food for other animals around the world. Its root is a highly nutritious herb that’s rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus.
How Yucca Supports Cats
Yucca contains two very beneficial compounds: sarsasapogenin and smilagenin. These two compounds work on the mucous membranes of the small intestine. These compounds help with the penetration and absorption of minerals and vitamins. Sarsasapogenin and smilagenin are known as steroidal saponins (phytosterols) which act as precursors to corticosteroids produced naturally by the body.
Steroidal saponins support the immune function of the body while stimulating and supporting the production of its own corticosteroids and corticosteroid–related hormones. Due to this action, studies conducted on Yucca have shown that it may be beneficial and effective for discomfort relief and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca for cats may also be a natural appetite stimulant and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some cats.

Seasonal Allergy Support for Dogs
Dogs can have seasonal allergies just like people. A dog’s immune system will react to everyday allergens found in the environment. Like people, dogs can have an allergy to pollen, mold, grass, ragweed, and dust mites. They can also be allergic to certain household products such as cleaners, carpet fibers, carpet deodorizers, insecticides, rubber, etc. and contract contact dermatitis.
Your pet’s immune system can overreact to these common unharmful environmental substances. You can help support your pet’s immune reaction to these airborne irritants by using safe and natural herbal supplements.
It’s best to first ensure that your dog has a seasonal allergy and is not dealing with skin allergies or food allergies. If you suspect this, our pet experts can offer different types of suggestions to help, like an elimination diet or novel protein diet for food allergies.
How Alge-Ex Supports Dogs with Seasonal Allergies
Alge-Ex is made with natural ingredients that are powerful against the causes of allergies, but gentle on your pet’s body. It was formulated by a holistic veterinarian and a master herbalist with a combined experience of over 50 years using plant extracts such as eyebright, feverfew, and European goldenrod" (2 instances). The natural properties of these ingredients help to reduce inflammation and irritation, and regulate your pet’s histamine response.
Additional Support
Bathing your pet is also an excellent way of helping your dog cope with a seasonal allergy. Bathing helps remove allergens and also provides relief. Make sure to give your pet plenty of filtered water.
Never attempt to diagnose your dog on your own. Your vet will be able to perform the required tests and make the necessary suggestions.

Natural Support for Dermatitis, Mange and Skin Infections
Your pup's skin is their largest organ! And because of this, their skin is constantly susceptible to infection, airborne irritants, icky biting insects and much more. Your furkiddo will scratch and bite when they are feeling stressed and have ouchies on their body. This obsessive behavior can introduce unwanted bacteria, whether it is from the environment or your pup’s own body, which can lead to infection. An itchy, inflamed ‘dog hot spot’ can be the end result. If these dog hot spots are left untreated, they can progress to secondary skin infections, abscesses or even metastatic tumors (eg. carcinoma). Ouch Away spray, dog skin infection spray, helps heal inflamed, itchy skin and promotes hair regrowth.
How NHV's Dog Skin Infection Spray Relieves Irritated Skin
Since your pup’s skin is their largest organ, it probably doesn't surprise you that skin issues are the most common health concern in dogs. These include (but are not limited to) dermatitis, mange and skin infections.
Dermatitis in dogs is a hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to a variety of common and typically harmless environmental substances. These allergens include grasses, pollens, house dust mites, or mold spores. Breeds predisposed to developing allergies include Chinese Shar-Peis, Wire Fox Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Dalmatians, Boxers, Boston Terriers, Labrador Retrievers, Lhasa Apsos, Scottish Terriers, Shih Tzus, and West Highland White Terriers. However, any breed (purebred or mixed) can be susceptible to allergies. The areas most affected are generally the paws, face, ears, front legs, and abdomen, but scratching all over the body is fairly common too. Ouch Away Spray for dog skin infections, contains ingredients like Chamomile, Marigold and Aloe vera that cools and soothes wounds, burns and irritated skin while strengthening the immune system.
The most common signs of dermatitis in dogs are:
- Overall itchiness
- Greasy and/or red skin
- Possible foul odor and/or smelly discharge
- Scaly, crusty, and/or flaky skin
- Thickened skin, aka 'elephant skin'
- Darkly pigmented skin (hyperpigmentation)
- Chronic or recurring ear infections
Dog mange is caused by mites and can lead to inflamed skin and nasty sores. Scabies or sarcoptic mange is contagious and is transmissible to humans. Black mange is not transmissible to humans due to it being a genetic condition. Secondary bacterial and yeast infections may develop if left untreated while sores on the skin can build up and release a powerful musty odor. You can learn more about mange and how to help your dog if they are suffering from it in Dr. Cook's article on mange. Ingredients like Rosemary, Tea Tree oil and Lemongrass oil, within the Ouch Away Spray, are effective topically against external parasites, combating skin infections and helping to stimulate fur regrowth (from constant biting and scratching).

NHV Ouch Away Spray, dog skin infection spray, is an effective topical spray that is 100% natural and vet-formulated to soothe your pup’s skin, coat issues, and dog hot spots.
