Vet-Formulated Supplement of Medicinal Mushrooms for Dogs
We are certain that any loving pet parents want to avoid surgical interventions on their little ones as much as possible. But did you know that getting your dog fixed can help extend their life and keep them healthier for longer? Know how to support your little one for a stress-free post-neuter and dog spay recovery.
Neutering and spaying are different terms for the same minor surgical procedure. The difference is in the gender of the animal. Male dogs get neutered, whilst female dogs are spayed. In either case, parts of their reproductive systems are removed to stop their ability to reproduce.
Most vets won’t recommend spaying a female dog during her heat cycle, as it increases the chances of complications. However, the best time to get your dog fixed depends on their individual needs and health state. So it’s important to make any decisions regarding the surgery with your trusted veterinarian.
Generally speaking, most furkiddos will get neutered or spayed shortly before they reach sexual maturity. These are the typical ages depending on the breed of your dog:
Even though these procedures are quick with reduced risk, they are performed under general anesthesia. So post-neuter and dog spay recovery care is advised. Keep in mind that it can take around ten days for your little one to fully recover, but here are ways to make this process easier for them:
Don’t let your furkiddo have access to the stitches. The use of specific surgical clothing or Elizabethan collars is indicated, regardless of the animal’s gender.
Resting is also crucial for your little one’s recovery. Prevent your dog from exerting themselves or moving around too much. NHV Lesstress can help with that! This formula offers natural support for canine stress and anxiety. Because it is a calming supplement, it can also help address possible post-op discomfort.
If the little one is suffering from pain and discomfort, they might struggle to eat. But it’s important to offer healthy food and provide fresh water. Adding NHV Yucca to their regimen can help with any appetite loss and discomfort. This extract contains two very beneficial compounds that act as precursors to corticoids and aid with symptom relief related to inflammation.
Another way to help avoid inflammation or infections that can result from any surgery is by keeping their environment safe and clean. NHV Felimm is a great ally for post-op care, as it helps strengthen the immune system and can help prevent infections.
Lastly, for post-neuter and dog spay recovery, we recommend NHV Natures Immuno. This blend of mushrooms helps support the immune system of your little one and can improve the body’s ability to produce white blood cells.
Please remember always to follow your trusted vet’s specific recommendations and ensure that your little one takes any prescribed medication as necessary. We hope these post-neuter and dog spay recovery tips will help you care for your little one. We are always here if you have any concerns!

Like us, dogs can get stressed by numerous factors as well. Help your furkiddo relax into a long and happy life with NHV Lesstress - a natural dog stress support.
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:
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.

Yucca for dogs is an all-natural supplement that can be helpful in many circumstances by providing symptom relief related to inflammation, discomfort, and loss of appetite.
Yucca for dogs is an all-natural supplement that can be helpful in many circumstances by providing symptom relief related to inflammation, discomfort, and loss of appetite.
Yucca root is widely used in dog food as well as in other pet foods. It is an herb that is highly nutritive as it is rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus. 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 and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca may also be effective as an appetite booster in dogs and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some dogs.
Yucca for dogs is commonly used for supporting arthritis, as an anti-inflammatory, nutritive, antitumor, and digestive.
