For some pet parents, the goal of becoming more eco-friendly is for the bigger picture, whether it is to ease climate change, reduce gas emissions, or lessen global warming. And for some, it is to protect your furmily and loved ones from toxic pollution. No matter where you belong, don’t forget to ask yourself these questions, why should you go green and how can I be an eco-friendly pet parent?
Becoming a more eco-friendly pet parent helps reduce pollution and increase the quality of life. With so many extreme weather changes, heatwaves, and large storms, it’s important to be mindful of the little things we do every day. Waste, plastic, transportation, electricity, and chemical fertilizers are common causes of air pollution. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), exposure to air pollution kills an estimated 4.2 million people per year.
Every single contribution to keep the Earth green counts. Below are some tips you can do to live a more green lifestyle with your little one.
Get Your DIY On With NHV Products!
Make a fun toy with the shipping box
You can create a puzzle or a comfy hide-out place for your fur kid with our shipping boxes. Giving your pet puzzle toys can help stimulate their brains, learn new skills, and keep them on their toes!
There are multiple ways to making a puzzle toy box, so let your creativity fly! A simple way to start is to use a utility or x-acto knife to start cutting out shapes in the cardboard! If you want the shapes to look more organized, mark them with a pencil or marker before cutting.
Make sure you cut the shape big enough for your pet’s paw to get inside. Once you are done making the shapes, it’s time to put in some toys, treats, or a little catnip. Have fun watching them pouting and playing with the box!
Cat owners also know that their feline companions love to snuggle up in a box. A cozy box makes them feel comfy and protected.
Reuse the glass bottle
You can reuse the NHV bottle for many things after removing all the labels, washing the bottle, and drying them. You can use it as a small vase for flower buds or dainty blooms whether real or dried.
You can also use the bottles as storage for things like spices, sprays, or even homemade perfume. Organize your space with a unique style and eco-friendliness!
Reduce Plastics
Be picky and buy less
Since you will need to frequently stock up on food and litter for your furkiddo, look for bulk packages instead of single and small bags whenever you go shopping. It helps reduce the use of wrapping and cut down the packaging waste. Smart shopping is one of the most effective ways to help the environment and save your budget. Some pet stores even have the option to buy food and supplies without packaging if you bring your own containers.
Switch to compostable waste bags
As the world is drowning in plastics, using a composable doggy poop bag over a biodegradable one can greatly support the environment because it will decompose faster. It also doesn’t leave behind microplastics, which are the small plastic bits broken down from biodegradable products.
Paw-hug certified organic food
BHA, BHT, sweeteners, artificial colors, and ethoxyquin may cause allergies and even be cancer in pets. Look for natural preservatives that contain plant extracts, vitamin E, or vitamin C. Artificial colors and flavors may make the food look and smell better. But organic food with nutritious ingredients is naturally flavorful and tasty! Be sure to check labels to find the best food for your sweetie.
Adopt New Furkiddos And Spay Or Neuter
With fewer strays, local shelters can be less overcrowded and have more resources to take care of animals. Adopting pets that need a home can help manage your environmental footprint and reduce overpopulation. You also save an innocent life by accepting them into your loving home and may help reduce the demand for mass breeding practices.
To welcome a new pet home, we recommend our vet-formulated Puppy and Kitten Starter Kit to help with overall pet health, support their skin and coat, cut and scrapes, and aid digestion and nutritional voids.
Sniff Out Toxic Cleaning Products
Chemical cleaning products harm both you and your furkiddo’s health. Their curiosity makes them more likely to run into harmful substances. Watch out for ingredients that can harm your pet, such as alcohol, bleach, hydrogen, and any chemical compounds that contain “phenol.”
Try to keep your little one in another room when you are cleaning. Don’t leave cleaning products unattended and store them in a place that your pet cannot reach. When you are done cleaning, try to rinse with water to wash away residue and odors.
Opt for alternatives if you can, such as white vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice. There are also increasing numbers of less-toxic products in the market. Check to see if products have any eco-friendly or natural certifications. Be mindful of the ingredients when you buy new cleaning products, doing so helps keep you and your furkiddo live a healthier and longer life!
Natural Kitty Litter
Traditional clay litter is not as composable as natural cat litter.
Traditional clay litter is not as composable as natural cat litter. With mass production and cheap cost, tons of clay litter go to the landfill every month. Composable cat litter made of recycled paper or wood can absorb liquids, is non-toxic, and is easily disposed of after use.
If you decide to switch to a new litter, make sure it is what you really want because it will take time for your pet to adjust. If your cat refuses the new litter, pick them up, put them into the litter box, and see their reaction. If they walk away, try again in a few hours or so. Slow and steady is key. Also, try to mix about 25% of the new cat litter with the old one and slowly increase the ratio until they are fully transitioned.
Make Treats At Home
Consider making a homemade treat for your furkiddo if you have pet-friendly groceries left in the fridge, so you don’t need to waste them. We have a simple recipe for bone broth and salmon sushi you can easily make at home. Check out our easy recipes for pets to learn more about different recipes for your little one!
Depending on your pet’s health and background, different nutrients may be required to support their health and balance their metabolism. Our veterinarian Dr. Amanda offers personalized nutrition plans to help keep your pet healthy and happy.
Get Some Exercise
You can help reduce carbon emissions by walking instead of driving. It is even more fun to do it with your pet! Besides, it is a good way to maintain and improve mental and physical health for both of you.
Reduce Destructive Behavior
A calm cat and a relaxed dog are less likely to be aggressive. When pets are aggressive or stressed, they may be destructive and damage items that may end up being a waste. Proper training, stimulation, and support can help your pet cope with the underlying cause of their destructive behavior.
We suggest Matricalm for your cat and Lesstress for your dog. These two supplements are vet-approved to help with your pet’s anxiety and aggressive behavior. Matricalm can help calm aggression and can reduce agitation in cats. Lesstress can reduce separation anxiety and destructive behavior in dogs.
Pets are our loved ones, so we all want the best for them. Yet, we also need to consider what’s best for the environment to have a sustainable world for our sweeties and for us to live on. Hence, it’s important to consider how you and your furry companions can live a more green lifestyle.
Have you tried any of the steps above? Do you know other ways to be a more eco-friendly pet parent? Please share with us your idea in the comments below!

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.
Help Support Your Dog Naturally
All NHV supplements like Lesstress are 100% natural and created by a holistic veterinarian and a master herbalist, specially formulated for pets. Feel free to contact our veterinary professionals to get more insight into your little one’s health and wellbeing.

Dosage Tab
To be taken twice daily. (Each supplement) Determine your pet’s weight and then use the easy chart below to determine the correct dose. This is the minimum dosage.
Pet's Weight Dosage
0 - 15 lb = 0.5 ml
16 - 30 lb = 1.0 ml
31 - 45 lb = 1.5 ml
46 - 60 lb = 2.0 ml
61 - 75 lb = 2.5 ml
Over 75 lb = 3.0 ml
For small animals (rabbits, ferrets), avians and reptiles use 1 drop for every 2 lb of body weight.
Long term use: Feed recommended dosage every other day (1 day on 1 day off). If used in large dosages or over a long period of time it may become irritating to the stomach lining. Some pets may require a larger dosage due to their metabolism. You can safely double the recommended dosage.
How to Administer: Shake well before use. The easiest method is to use the dropper provided and place the drops into your pet’s food or favorite treat. You can also use the dropper and squirt directly into the pet’s mouth. Some pets can be finicky, if this occurs consider hiding the drops in foods most pet’s love such as fish, chicken or yogurt or a favourite treat. If your pet only eats dry food then soak a few kibbles at feeding time.
For Best Results: Herbal dietary supplements are beneficial to the health and well-being of your pet and are safe for long-term use. Every pet responds to natural herbal supplements differently, therefore it is important to be consistent and administer the product daily.

Holistic Support for Growing Pets
Bringing home a new furry friend is one of the most thrilling feelings in the world! It is essential that your home is appropriately pet-proofed and that you get everything you need for the smoothest start— including the right diet plan, and supplements. Of course, when a new puppy or kitten comes home, that's when reality sets in, and you realize just how much work it is to take care of this little bundle of joy! Puppies love to chew and eat everything in sight, and kittens will hide anywhere they will fit! For all of the shenanigans that your little furbaby is bound to get into, we recommend adding natural supplements to their daily meals as soon as they are vaccinated and weaned. This proactive care plan is beneficial for supporting their overall well-being and giving them a healthy start. It may even be beneficial in slowing down or preventing disease (which may develop due to age, genetics, environment, or poor nutrition). NHV Puppy and Kitten Starter Kit contains Inulin-PK (a deworming aid), Multi Essentials (natural plant-based vitamin and mineral support), Petomega 3 (omega-3 fish oils), Plantaeris (diarrhea support) and First Aid Spray (for minor cuts and wounds).
For pet parents bringing home a purebred pet, get to know your little one’s unique history and personality with our dog and cat breed pages.
How the NHV Puppy and Kitten Health Starter Kit Support Overall Health and Vitality
Puppies and kittens have very sensitive GI tracts, and they love to lick, gobble and chew on things that they aren’t supposed to (like poop), so they are prone to having worm or parasite infections, and upset tummies. Ingredients like elecampane, celandine, milk thistle, and wormwood in Inulin-PK are very gentle aids that encourage the healthy elimination of worms and parasites while helping to maintain a healthy gut. Multi Essentials helps your pet get extra vital nutrients and minerals, which may improve nutrient absorption and metabolism, leading to increases in energy levels and overall vitality. In Petomega 3, the EPA and DHA omega 3s provide critical building blocks for healthy skin development in the coat, eye, heart, and brain, as well as support healthy immune response. Plantaeris contains herbs like thyme which promotes digestion by relaxing muscle cramping and Mullein soothes and lubricates delicate intestinal mucosa while providing gentle support for diarrhea. Ingredients like neem, aloe vera, and tea tree oil in the First Aid Spray contain natural disinfectant properties for cleaning wounds and preventing infection, and the sedative properties of California poppy help reduce stress to encourage faster healing.
