Bach Flower Remedies for animals -------------------------------Bach Flower Remedies are as effective in the treatment of animals as they are

effective in the treatment of children. In case of animal also, medicines are selected on the basis of symptoms as they are selected in the case of human beings. The mood and nature of the animals are particularly taken into consideration. Bach Flower Remedies can be tried on pet dogs and cats and on domestic animals like horse, cows and buffaloes also. Drops from 2 to 4 can be given to animals like cats and dogs and lo drops mixed with water or milk or biscuits can be given to animals like horses, cows and buffaloes while selecting the remedy. The nature and the causes of their behaving in a particular way must particularly be kept in view. For example, we can take the case of dogs. It has been observed that a dog that is generally quiet, starts barking at the passers-by. There may be many reasons. If it is barking because of fear and terror, it must be given Mimulus and Rock Rose. Sometimes pet dogs bark to save and protect their masters. Such dogs need Chicory. Dogs too have their own territories, they cannot bear other dogs in their territory and they bark to show that their territory should not be encroached upon. They must be given Viner. Sometimes, on the arrival of a new-born baby in the family, the love of the parents is divided between the baby and the pet dog. The pet cannot bear it. It develops feelings of envy, malice and enmity for the baby. It is a dangerous situation. The dog barks at the baby and sometime even grows violent and tries to bite the baby. Holly removes the feelings of envy and enmity from the mind of the dog and develops the feelings of love and co-operation. If the dog is timid and hides itself in a corner of the house or in the lap of its master on getting scared, it must be given Mimulus and Chicory. When birds and animals fall ill and suffer from pain, they look at their masters with a look of despair and solicitation. They expect love and sympathy from them. When they do not get what they want, they develop the feelings of grievance and sorrow. In such a case, they must be given Willow. Clematis removes their their dullness and the tendency of dozing all the time. Vine must be given to them to remove their irritability and restlessness. Like human beings, birds and animals too have their own nature and mood. In choosing medicines for them, their nature and mood must also be left in view. Rescue Remedies are helpful and useful to birds and animals also. These remedies can save the lives of these mute creatures when they get wounded because of some accident. Rescue remedies can be given to them both externally and internally. Rescue cream if available, should be applied to the wound and then it should be dressed. If the cream is not available, a lotion should be prepared by mixing Rescue remedy and Crab Apple together and then the wound should be washed and cleaned with this lotion, mixing water with it. Rescue Remedy, mixed with water or some other drink should be given every 10 or 15 minutes until the wound is healed up. It has been observed that birds, flying in the sky, get

wounded and fall down on the earth. In such a case, some drops of Rescue remedy must be poured into their beaks and this remedy, mixed with water, must also be applied to the wound. This treatment has a magical effect. The birds recovers immediately and fly away. Bach Flower Remedies can open new vistas for veterinary doctors.
