Dosage Instructions by Weight
Our tincture bottle includes a glass dropper. For your dog’s safety, we recommend using a plastic oral syringe to administer the liquid formulae. One syringe is included with each package. These are also available from your veterinarian, feed supply or drug store. We recommend diluting the formulae with some plain unsweetened yogurt, heavy cream, baby food or applesauce in the syringe, this will help take the edge off the taste. See the photo below for further instructions on administering liquid formulae. If your dog is willing to eat the herbs mixed with a snack size amount of food that is also fine.
Canine Heart Formula & Hawthorne can be administered at the same time by mixing with plain unsweetened yogurt, heavy cream, baby food or applesauce and syringing into the side of your dog’s mouth.

Kidney and Liver Cleansing Instructions
When giving Hepara-Cleanse + Blood Cleansing Formula or Rena-Cleanse + Immuno Aid wait at least 15 minutes after having given Canine Heart Formula and/or Hawthorne. This allows the body to focus on one area at a time. Giving specific formulae too close together will not do any harm, it will simply lessen the effectiveness of the formulae.

Immuno-Aid | 1 drop for every TWO pounds of body weight to be given with Rena-Cleanse. Given 3-4 times daily for one week. |

Hydrotherapy
Probably the most effective part in any natural health program, hydrotherapy has been used for centuries to support health by promoting blood flow to an area. From the Greek physician Hippocrates, John Floyer in England, Vincenz Priessnitz and Sebastian Kneipp in Germany, Benedict Lust to the famous John Kellogg and O G Carroll right here in North America all used hydrotherapy to support health.
Hot water brings blood to the surface of the skin, which is why the skin turns red, it relaxes the body by expanding blood vessels and loosening the muscles. Cold water does the opposite; it contracts the muscles and blood vessels sending the blood on the surface deeper into the body and organs. By alternating hot and cold you increase circulation in the body. Blood carries oxygen and nutrition to every cell and organ in the body, when blood is restricted to any area of the body that area will eventually die. By feeding your dog a proper diet and loading his blood with the proper nutrition, hydrotherapy will ensure that nutrient rich blood gets to all the cells that need it.
Instructions:
You will need to shave the fur or trim the hair from the area on the left side of your dog’s ribcage by his armpit. You should be able to feel the heart beating; this is how you will know you are in the right area. If you are not sure where the heart is located ask your veterinarian to show you.
Put your dog in the tub, you will need a hand sprayer. Turn the water on warm and apply to the heart area. Get him used to the water, after about a minute turn up the heat to the hottest setting you can handle without burning yourself. Keep this on his heart for one minute. Then turn the hot water completely off and spray the cold water for another full minute. Repeat this for 10-15 minutes at least twice a day. (See photo below.)
End on warm to relax or cold to invigorate. You will notice when on warm your dog may yawn or even start to dose off and on cold they will perk right up!
Alternative Method
If having your dog stand in the tub for 10-15 minutes is not an option, a second best option would be to use hot and cold packs. The best are the gel packs you can find at the drug store that you can warm up in the microwave and cool by putting in the fridge or freezer (you will need two packs to do this). The routine is the same, but instead, you will place the hot pack on for 1 minute, then switch to the cold pack for one minute, back and forth for 10-15 minutes.
WARNING: If your dog is having a health issue, consult your veterinarian before starting hydrotherapy.
A good idea is to mark the hot water limit on your fixture with two pieces of electrical tape, one on the handle and one on the face plate. This way you will not have to guess where the right temperature is each time you switch back to hot.
The greater the contrast, the more effective hydrotherapy is.
It is very important to always check the water temperature on yourself first to avoid burning your dog, as the water pressure can affect the temperature in some buildings.
