Dear Claudia,
I can understand you not wanting to put Cockie on harsh allopathic
medication. I love the more natural remedies. I too have a separation
anxiety chi Tinker Bell, who has climbed trees and jumped four foot
walls trying to get to me when I left her. I got her from a rescue at
about 10 mos. she had been taken to the pound as being troublesome and
destructive. She was in the pound about 2 days, the rescue took her and
took her to the vet and had her spayed right away, (more trauma on
trauma) was a scared little 4 lb mite when I came to get her the next
day. Spent months socializing and potty training and fixing screens she
broke through to get out and rugs she tore up to get out of the bedroom
etc.., as long as I was with her she was calm, soon as I left she was crazy.
This week, we had plumbing problems and a leak and big fan dryers and
workmen coming in and out. Tinker Bell got a little weirded out and
suddenly was squeezing her eye shut and afraid of my hand with a treat,
and shaking...... I gave her a couple drops of Flower Essence Rescue
Remedy and she calmed right down. We went for a walk and after she had
her eye open wide and came up and did tricks for her treat as we usually
do. Right now she is calm on a pillow beside me at the desk and not
trying to crawl up in my arms. She changed that quick from one dose.
It is all natural..... you can read about it on the site.
Here is some information on natural Flower Essence Remedies, such as
Rescue Remedy, which are helpful for trauma and emotional issues in
people and animals. You can Google Flower Essences, here is a nice link
that explains it them:
http://www.petsynergy.com/flower.html
Here is another link to flower essense, and an explanation of using
Rescue Remedy with animals:
http://www.bachfloweressences.co.uk/dynamic/us/index.php?section=home
Rescue^(TM) Remedy is a combination of five of the
38 Bach Original Flower Remedies and many
people use it in times of stress or emotional
upheaval. However, it can be of great benefit to
animals too; whether they are traumatised, ill, about
to visit the vet or even if they just seem generally
under the weather. The unique formula contains
Star of Bethlehem for shock, Rock Rose for terror
and panic, Cherry Plum for lack of self-control,
Impatiens for agitation, and Clematis to counteract
faintness and bemusement.
Rescue Remedy has been used by thousands of pet
owners for years using the traditional dropper
bottle. It is now also available as the handy and
easy-to-use Rescue^(TM) Spray. It makes the dosage
even easier anytime, anywhere -- just apply two
sprays onto the animal's skin. Do not spray in the
eyes. Please consult a vet before use, particularly for
exotic or small species.
I am environmentally sensitive and use another flower essence on a
regular basis from this site: (It's called YES "Yarrow Environmental
Solution" and has an interesting story behind it, developed to help
people in Japan from affects of the bomb)

Love and healing to you both, Phylis

this is so sad claudia, I have thought. have your fiend come
over and you leave for fifteen minutes than slowly increase the
time. maybe that would help. I feel so bad for Cockie the poor
little dog. I am glad she has you. arlene
