Natural Support for Parasites, Skin Allergies and Bug Bites
It doesn’t matter if you have a cat, dog, or rabbit. If you think it is hot, guaranteed your pet does too. The only problem is that you can vocalize how you feel much easier than they can. Pets are susceptible to the heat, too, and are at risk of suffering from heatstroke because they cannot tell us that they are too hot – or they are just having too much fun outside to care! In hopes that everyone can enjoy the summer to the fullest, we have provided some summer pet safety tips to help your fur babies beat the heat and stay healthy.
1. Water them.
Ensure that your pets have access to water at all times. Try to keep water fresh and cool if possible (place dish in the shade or place ice cubes in the water). Remember to put out multiple bowls on sweltering days. If you’re out, always carry a compact portable pet water bowl.
2. Don’t leave anyone behind.
Please do not leave your pets in the car – even if it is just for a couple of minutes and the windows are down or if it is running with the air conditioning on. Temperatures elevate quickly in vehicles, and it only takes minutes to cause irreversible organ damage or worse.
3. Humidity isn’t just hard on hair.
When the humidity is high, it can cause a pet’s temperatures to rise because they become unable to cool themselves. Body temperatures can rise very quickly and become dangerous.
4. It’s ok to be shady sometimes.
Many cats and dogs love to bask in the sun, but too much time in the sun can cause heatstroke and even increase the risk of developing skin cancers.
Many cats and dogs love to bask in the sun, but too much time in the sun can cause heatstroke and even increase the risk of developing skin cancers. Be sure to provide your fur babies with a shady area to retreat to, especially if they are in an enclosure. Also, be aware that pets can get sunburns and burns, too – ear tips are sensitive to the sun, paw pads are sensitive to hot surfaces, etc. To help protect and soothe paw pads, try NHV Heal Care Ointment for cats and dogs.
5. Circulate, circulate, circulate.
If your house does not have air conditioning, ensure that you have airflow/ventilation. Your furry friend will appreciate even a slight breeze. If possible, elevate their bed so that air can get underneath – you could try a cat hammock. Please note that fans do not cool pets and do for us humans, so do not rely on a fan only.
6. Walk with care.
Exercise will need to be limited on sweltering days. Try to go for walks or have playtime early in the morning or later in the evening when it is cooler and try to keep the exertion level lower. Instead of using the sidewalk, go on the grass. It will be easier on their paws. Make sure to keep a bottle of water with you when you leave the house and bring an extra one for your fur pal as well!
Additional summer pet safety tips:
- If your pooch must walk on a hot surface for a period of time, you may wish to consider doggy booties to help protect their feet.
- Popsicles aren’t just for people! Make some yummy peanut butter popsicles or freeze some of their favorite treats – this will help cool them from the inside. You can also freeze a favorite chew toy or cuddle buddy for added relief.
- Go for a swim! Jumping into a lake or even having a kiddie pool that your pets can splash in will help to cool them off. Swimming can also be a substitute for going for a walk.
- Check your pet regularly for signs of burns or discomfort.
- Some longer-haired pets may benefit from a haircut. Check with your vet to see if this might be an option for your pet.
- When creating your disaster plan, whether it be for power outages or natural disasters, make sure to include your pet in mind too!
Watch for signs of heatstroke:
- Excessive panting
- Lethargy
- Drooling
- Difficulty breathing
- Fever
- Vomiting
- Collapse or unconsciousness
- Excessively sweaty paw pads
- Seizures
What do you do if you notice the above symptoms? If you suspect your pet may have heat stroke contact your local veterinary clinic right away.

Natural Support for Skin Infections, Hot Spots and Scrapes
All Clear Ointment is a topical ointment for dog skin that contains all-natural herbal ingredients that protect and soothe skin while promoting healing. It can be used to help with yeast infections, fungal or bacterial infection, general itchy skin, and everyday scuffs.
Hot Spots
Did you know that the skin is the largest organ of the body? It is the boundary between the body and the outside world and is susceptible to injury at all times. A “hot spot” (aka moist dermatitis) is a condition that involves an area of skin that becomes inflamed, causing a raw, moist wound to develop. These areas are itchy and may cause a lot of discomfort for your pup; the anti-inflammatory and immune stimulating properties in All Clear help reduce swelling and discomfort.
Bacterial and Fungal (Yeast) Infections
To keep your dog’s skin happy, a delicate balance of healthy bacteria, fungus and other microorganisms are required. When there is an irritant, infection or allergy response, your dog can respond by biting or chewing to self-soothe and their mouth can introduce infection causing a secondary infection. The herbs in All Clear Ointment, like Marigold, help fight fungal infections of the skin.
Wound Healing
For pet parents with active pooches, you know that your four-legged friends like to get into trouble! For every day cuts and scrapes, make sure to disinfect the affected area before applying the All Clear ointment. The olive oil, beeswax and rosemary extracted in sunflower oil form a protective barrier and stay in place while the skin heals.
How All Clear Supports Recovery from Hot Spots and Itchy Skin
All Clear contains many beneficial ingredients like Echinacea angustifolia which has been commonly used for skin infections due to its many immune-stimulating properties. Herbs like Marigold help decrease bacteria and fungus, at the site of injury, and Goldenseal acts as a natural disinfectant that fights infection and stimulates healthy immune response. The anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties reduce discomfort and swelling so your furkiddo is less likely to chew the affected area. And the olive oil, beeswax and rosemary (extracted in sunflower oil) create a protective barrier so the skin can start to heal. All Clear’s 100% natural formulation means that it is totally safe if your pup licks it! This all natural, topical cream is safe to use alongside other NHV supplements, like Felimm, to give your pet the support they need for fighting fungal infections both externally and internally.

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.
