DESCRIPTION
A mixed blend of our Old Dog + Calm Dog pet oils for balance:
- a mix of heated and unheated hemp
- hemp seed oil from Tassie for omegas 3 & 6
- turmeric for aches & stiffness
Organic Hemp: Hemp in this product is half heated / un-heated (decarboxylated) for a well rounded (balanced) pet hemp oil. All our hemp is grown organically around Nimbin, Australia.
Tasmanian Hemp Seed Oil: 100% unrefined cold pressed hemp seed oil from Tasmania. Wonderful for doggy hair which comes up shiny with this supplement. Also has been reported to reduce malting by 70% in some breeds (Jack Russell and Foxy). Hemp seed oil is extracted by cold pressing hemp seed and contains the Omega 6:3 ratio of fish oil and is the perfect plant-based alternative for people wanting a more sustainable oil as it doesn’t come with the heavy metals or ecological impact of fish oil.
Turmeric: Turmeric is a strong natural anti-inflammatory often used to relieve pain caused by inflammation, many people take it in tablet or powder form daily as a health supplement. We use a certified organic, double curcumin strength turmeric from India. NOTE: turmeric is very yellow and can stain clothes and towels.
HOW TO USE
May be used for dogs, cats & humans too.
Dog Dosage: Start with 3 - 4 drops with food and then increase from there if not seeing much affect after a few days.
For a larger dog such as 40kg you could start with 5-6 drops.
Cat Dosage: For cats 1 - 5kg start with 1 - 2 drops with food.
For larger cats 5kg plus, start on 3 drops with food and adjust from there after 3 - 5 days.
Can Humans use it too? Yes definitely, our pet range targets more specific areas which some people prefer, start on 5 drops as per our regular hemp oils.
Finding The Right Dosage: All people / animals react differently to dosing, there is no one size fits all, so it can take time to find the right amount.
Too much can also be counterproductive, so increasing a bit at a time (up-titrating) to see the effect, then adjust again to find the optimum dose..
Storage: The BLACK SHEEP FARM pet hemp oils can be stored at room temperature for a year at least, out of direct sunlight. For longer storage you may keep them in the fridge.
TRIED AND TESTED
I came across Black Sheep Farm products at my local massage place that my husband and I book in to, at Mac (the founder of Black Sheep Farm) and Chommy's house, who are a 5 minute drive from my home. It was at a time when one of our puppies had dislocated her toe, so I purchased the hemp, comfrey and arnica balm to massage on to her toes, as well as the old dog hemp oil to add to her food. She had a remarkable recovery and so, I ended up using the rest of the hemp, comfrey and arnica balm myself on my hips which sometimes get a little achey. And it worked wonders for me too. This led me to try the rest of the range and I fell in love. The ingredients are oh so pure and clean, as well as therapeutically healing. These balms are a must for every household.
