Discomfort Relief, Digestive Support, and Dog Appetite Booster
In July we ran a campaign to collect 15,000 pet selfies across social media platforms. Each selfie was to be tagged with #nhvnaturalselfie. If we reached our goal, we would donate $5000 of NHV supplements to pets in need. We did it! We reached our goal! We decided to spread the NHV love across multiple pet rescues, and one rescue was Animal Town Sanctuary. Travis at Animal Town Sanctuary takes in older or special needs pups, usually Huskies, and gives them a loving home to retire to. Travis does not adopt out these dogs but instead gives them the best life and lots of loving care on his 10-acre ranch.
One such pup is Bandit. Bandit is an Australian Cattle Dog. Just before we were in touch with ATS, Bandit was diagnosed with a mega-esophagus. This condition occurs when the esophagus, the path between the mouth and stomach, becomes weaker. The muscles are not toned and the esophagus becomes wider than usual. The muscles are not able to push the food down to the stomach as they should. This presents a few problems. Food can settle in the esophagus and spontaneously be regurgitated. This often leads to aspiration or inhalation of the food into the lungs. This is obviously not safe, as it can lead to pneumonia. Because efficiently taking in food is troublesome, it can also affect the intake of adequate nutrition.
Bandit was diagnosed with mega-esophagus right before we contacted you. Unfortunately, our vet said this was the very first case they had ever encountered. They didn’t have any experience with his condition, ever. The vet shares the office with 5 other vets and none of them have ever treated a dog with this condition. So it’s rare in our area. Bandit also developed pneumonia because it took so long to diagnose. He had a few really bad weeks. One day, he collapsed and couldn’t get up. He had to be carried to bed until he regained his energy the following day. We had some close calls with him. We are super lucky that he survived pneumonia and lucky that he seems to be living with or healing his mega-esophagus. He is getting a little better each day.
NHV Yucca contains precursors to corticosteroids which help to reduce inflammation. It also soothes the tissues of the upper gastrointestinal system and increases the penetration and absorption of vitamins and minerals. Mega-esophagus can be tough to treat because it is a purely ‘mechanical’ problem. There is usually no disease process, it is simply an enlargement of the esophagus. Our veterinary team discussed which supplements may be helpful for Bandit, and decided that Yucca and Resp-Aid would be best.
NHV Resp-Aid contains herbs that help to soothe the respiratory system and help to prevent infection. There are also herbs that act as anti-inflammatories and expectorants, to help release congestion from the lungs.
A few weeks after Bandit started these supplements, we received a happy update from Travis.
We are happy to tell you that his health has improved quite a bit. He has been able to hold his food and liquids down more often. He has also had more energy and has even been able to run short distances a few times this week. He is a lot better than he was a few weeks ago. Thank you guys very much for helping him!!
Bandit needs to be fed in an upright sitting or standing position, so that gravity can help food fall through the esophagus to the stomach. With this modified feeding technique along with the NHV supplements, Bandit should be able to live a happy, carefree life on the ranch! 😊
If your pet is suffering from a unique condition, contact our Pet Experts. Our veterinary team will be happy to find supplements that can help!

NHV Yucca is used for cats as a supplement to provide nutrients, and may be helpful for discomfort, inflammation, and to increase or balance the appetite.
NHV Yucca is used for cats as a supplement to provide nutrients, and may be helpful for discomfort, inflammation, and to increase or balance the appetite.
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.
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.
Yucca - Commonly used for supporting arthritis, as an anti-inflammatory, nutritive, antitumor, and digestive supplement.

A cat is technically considered a senior at 7-9 years old. While a 13 year old cat is technically a senior, cats have been known to live past 20 years. Age is not a disease! Maintain your kitty's optimal health and she can live for many more happy years.
Maintaining optimal health through kidney support, nutritional support, and a healthy balanced diet can help keep your cat healthy into their senior years. We recommend at least annual vet visits for cats over 9 years old.
Some changes that might be seen with aging include weight gain, lowered energy, stiff joints, foggy eyes (nuclear sclerosis) and weakened hearing. Antioxidant support can help to slow the progression of these aging changes.
It's never too early to start preventive supplements! If you have a breed which may be prone to a specific condition, supplementation can be started at any time. It's better to not wait for problems to be severe before supporting them.

Vitamins and minerals are essential to life - they help your dog or cat with their overall health and vitality by regulating the metabolism and supporting many other biochemical processes across the body.
Vitamins and minerals are essential to life - they help your dog or cat with their overall health and vitality by regulating the metabolism and supporting many other biochemical processes across the body.
Daily Nutritional Support for Pets
Without vitamins and minerals, your furkiddo may develop nutritional deficiencies that disrupt normal body functioning and can lead to chronic injury or illness. You may be wondering why your pet would benefit from daily dog vitamins or natural cat vitamins if they are getting everything they need from their food. Most commercial pet foods try their best to meet the minimum recommendations for vitamins and minerals set by regulating organizations like the AAFCO. However, things to keep in mind are:
Like humans, vitamins and minerals in our furbaby’s body work together synergistically rather than function as isolated chemicals. When we single out a vitamin, we may lose the balance that nature provides with interdependent co-factors (helper molecules) like trace minerals or phytochemicals. The best way for your pet to get the vitamins and minerals they need is to get them from whole plant sources rather than made synthetically in a lab. Our Daily Pet Supplement Bundle contains NHV Multi-Essentials, NHV Turmeric, NHV Petomega 3 and NHV Yucca. All of our supplements are full-spectrum and made from the finest quality herbs. Each blend is specifically formulated for pets. Full-spectrum means that all of the vitamins, minerals and trace elements are kept intact during the extraction process to make it bioavailable as daily dog vitamins or natural cat vitamins for your furkiddo.
How NHV’s Natural Daily Dog and Cat Vitamins Support Health and Vitality
NHV Multi Essentials is full of herbs that are rich in vitamins and minerals to help with many important body processes including healthy immune function and metabolism. Turmeric contains free-radical scavengers that may help reduce inflammation in the body; it is high in antioxidants which support healthy detoxification and liver function. Petomega 3 is beneficial for cardiac health, metabolism and healthy skin and coat. And Yucca is a highly nutritious superfood that promotes healthy absorption and a soothing aid for inflamed joints.
