Amount:

4-8 drops ofr cats and small animals, 8-12 drops for dogs and medium animals, and 1/3-1/2 dropper full for horses and large animals

Best Way:

If there is a way to place the drops directly into the animal's mouth without contaminating the dropper, this is the most effective way to administer the essences. Or put the drops into a dose syringe, add water and squirt into their mouth. Flower Essences are most effective when absorbed by the mucous membranes of the mouth instead of the digestive tract.

Alternative Options:

If you cannot place directly into animal's mouth, Flower Essences may be given in the pet's water or on an apple for horses. For cats, you can try placing on paws and letting them lick off. You can also rub into their ears.

How Long to Use:

1. For situational use, such as to calm a pet before a vet visit or during a storm, or to focus a competitor before a show, use as needed before the situation.
2. For transitional needs, such as changing the pet's environment or bringing a new pet into the home, give daily for 7-10 days, then as needed.
3. For longer-term behaviors, such as aggressive or destructive behavior, give daily for 3 weeks, then evaluate and continue for 3 weeks more, if needed.
