:wave: thanks I appreciate your help. I originally got it for vet visits but now am using it in water bowl to help two newly bonded buns. Annie has been getting a bit stressed with Lindon. Lindon was neutered two months ago but is still very hormonal. No aggression. He keeps spraying her. She was speyed years ago. I was hoping to use RR to calm them both. Any suggestions?
Ok going on the info you've given me I would highly recommend you start using
Bach's 'Walnut' - this essence is great for changes of any kind that can cause upset, such as, hormones, new homes, stressful situations etc, so in your buns circumstances:
hormonal changes of Lindon (as it sounds like hormones are still needing time to settle down) & in Annie's case; upset caused by the stresses of having an over-enthusiastic partner!
This essence can be used as I mentioned above, so drops in the shared water bowl, drops on the acu-point (top of the head lying half way between the ears - pop drops on your fingers & simply smooth on the coat) &/or drops on veges/herbs/treats.
The recommendation is 16 drops per bun per day separated i.e x 8 drops twice a day or x4 drops four times a day etc. However, the most important part is being consistent as intake is more important than numbers of drops, so as long as you are doing something daily that is the main thing. I would suggest upping the drops into the water compared to the RR - so as it is a large dog bowl, put in 16 drops every time the water is replaced then 'top up' your other drops per bun with any of the other methods outlined above (estimating that each bun is getting roughly x 8 drops each from water dose).
I do have another essence suggestion for Annie which helps with fears/anxieties, which is
Bach's 'Mimulus' but as the buns share a bowl this one would have to be given by any other method apart from the water.
I would suggest going with the 'Walnut' & then if you're happy with the routine of the process add in the 'Mimulus' to Annie's routine, but if you just wanted to purchase 1 remedy for now then definately opt for the 'Walnut' as it should help them both.
Most health stores sell the Bach range & even Boots stock it now it so you shouldn't have a problem getting hold of anything.
Changes can usually be seen within 2-3 weeks but I must admit sometimes it can be quicker as I've had success with buns in a week using essences so just keep positive & stick with it.
Any q's please feel free to ask on here or PM me - do let me know how you get on, good luck :thumb:
