skin support
We receive so many happy success stories here at NHV, but our NHV team is also a group of pet parents and we use our products too! We have all seen first-hand how NHV natural products can help, not just for major ailments like cancer or heart disease, but for small things too.
My buddy GusGus is a French Bulldog. Aside from the plethora of health issues Frenchies can suffer from, they also tend to get very dry, scaly noses. Since GusGus is an Instagram star, I wanted him to look his absolute best in his pictures (not to mention, the dry scabbiness looked pretty uncomfortable) I applied some Heal Care Ointment to Gus’ nose once per day, and after only TWO days, his nose already looked so much better! He’s a pretty stubborn little guy, he doesn’t like being ‘messed’ with much, so the fact that I only had to apply this once daily was great. He also didn’t seem bothered by it at all! I’m so thrilled with how his nose looks now. He doesn’t mind if I post his close-ups to Instagram, and I’m sure it feels a whole lot better too! ~Johanna, RVT @ NHV
Heal Care ointment contains Arnica and St. John’s Wort along with olive oil and natural beeswax for texture. Arnica naturally relieves discomfort and inflammation and clears fungal and bacterial infections. St. John’s Wort helps with wound healing and stimulates tissue repair. It is thought to reduce nerve discomfort when applied topically. The olive oil in Heal Care helps to naturally soften the skin to help heal dry skin and cracking.
Heal Care Ointment can come handy in a lot of day-to-day situations:
Massage it on sore and uncomfortable limbs
Use it to heal cracked paw pads
Rub it gently on any inflamed skin
Use it on the paws, post walkies. (helps protect paw pads from the dangers of exposure to over-heated gravel or snow salt)
What’s best is that, because it is completely herbal, it wouldn’t hurt your pet if he or she accidentally or “rebelliously” licks it.
Whether your pet is on Instagram or not, you always want them feeling great and looking THE BEST. It’s great to know that there are natural ways to achieve that. Follow @NHVNaturalPet on Instagram to stay in touch with us our community of holistic pooches and kitties. If you have a pet health question or need any holistic advice, please get in touch with us here. Along with our in-house vet and our team of Pet Experts, I would love to help you out! 🙂

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.
