Hawthorn and Dandelion ~ is a natural organic herbal remedy that helps strengthen and support your pet's heart muscle, improve circulation and may be used as a diuretic.

The natural herbs in the Hawthorn & Dandelion remedy are excellent to provide heart support for pets who have heart disease.

The Heart:
The heart is a muscular organ responsible for pumping blood through the blood vessels by repeated, rhythmic contractions. It is divided into four chambers, two on the left and two on the right.

The term cardiac (as in cardiology) means "related to the heart" and comes from the Greek καρδία, kardia, for "heart." The heart is composed of cardiac muscle, an involuntary muscle tissue which is found only within this organ. cardiomyopathy (cardio = heart, myo = muscle, pathy = disease).

The common heart diseases suffered by dogs often lead to heart failure. Dogs will generally suffer what is called Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), a relatively slow worsening of symptoms as the heart struggles to compensate for whatever defect or disease is present. As the condition develops, it will affect all other organs in the body that rely on the efficient supply of nutrient-rich blood.

Hawthorn & Dandelion has been developed to help strengthen your pet's heart. It is being used in conditions such as canine heartworm. Heartworm is a condition that can cause Congestive Heart Failure.

There are two common types of heart disease in canines.

• Type one ~ the dog's heart valves lose their ability to close properly, causing abnormal blood flow.
• Type two ~ the muscular walls of a dog's heart become thinned and weakened.

Both will develop gradually over time resulting in the same serious condition called heart failure.

Heart failure can happen to dogs of all ages. In the young, this is typically the result of congenital abnormalities in the formation of the heart or blood vessels, which surround it. In older animals, it is usually a case in which one side or chamber is weakened or over worked due to altered circulatory patterns.

Of the dogs in the United States examined annually by a veterinarian, approximately 3.2 million have some form of acquired heart disease and may be in heart failure.

Signs of heart disease in dogs

Although some of the early stages of heart failure in dogs have no visible signs, heart failure can be diagnosed through a clinical evaluation by a veterinarian.

Dogs with mild to moderate heart failure:

• Heart enlargement
• Lethargy
• Difficulty breathing
• Elevated blood pressure
• Pulmonary edema which causes the animal to cough to clear the lungs

Severe heart failure:
All of the above and

• Weakness
• Difficulty breathing (even at rest)
• Fainting
• Profound intolerance to exercise
• Loss of appetite
• Weight loss.

Heart Disease in Felines

The most common type of heart disease in felines is HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy). HCM is a heart disorder in which the left wall of the heart grows and thickens.

Symptoms of HCM are most frequently seen in young and middle-aged male cats, usually before the age of 5-6, but have been recorded in cats as young as 8 months and as old as 16.

The symptoms could be one or several of the following:

• Lack of appetite
• Increased weariness / lethargy
• Less activity
• Difficulty in breathing
• Gagging
• Weight loss
• Coughing

Another serious symptom is hind limb pain or paralysis, which results from a blood clot within distal aorta, back in the rear limbs where the aorta splits.

You should contact a vet immediately if you notice these symptoms.

Never give your cat aspirin or paracetamol without first having consulted a vet! Amber Technology has developed a product called Adizone C for Felines. Adizone C for Felines can help your cat with some of these symptoms. Hawthorn & Dandelion has been developed to help strengthen your cat's heart.

Prevention:

There are few things that can be done to prevent heart disease. Diagnosing the disease earlier in its course is very helpful in slowing the progression. Notify your veterinarian of any signs of heart failure in your pet. Keeping your pet healthy and at his ideal weight can lessen the severity of symptoms heart disease does occur. Good oral health is also important.

SUGGESTIONS WHEN TREATING MORE THAN ONE PET:

AMBER GLASS BOTTLES & SYRINGES ~ If you have more than one pet that you are treating, you might want to consider purchasing one or more amber glass 1/2 oz., 1 oz., or 4 oz. dropper bottles, so you can split up the tincture into a smaller bottle. That way there is less chance of product contamination.

In addition, when treating more than one pet, it may be necessary to assure sterile administration without carry over from pet to pet. This is very important when using Paxxin to treat some pups and using as a preventative for others. The best way to assure this is to use the dropper only to transfer product to an individual sterile oral syringe, using a different syringe for each pet. (This method will also reduce the chances of product contamination.) Those syringes should be sterilized after each use. Each pet should have its own syringe that is not shared with another pet.

The use of a syringe containing measured drops from the dropper will also remove the risk of the animal biting the glass dropper.

SYRINGES ~ these are luer slip syringes without needles that are excellent for administering measured amounts of Parvaid, CS, tinctures, etc. Reinforced tip, large finger grips, smooth draw and easy-to-read graduations. Rubber plunger with double contact for a positive seal and effortless injection. FDA approved and autoclavable.

If purchasing for use with Paxxin (aka Parvaid), syringe size needed is based on the weight of the puppy. We suggest two syringes, one for oral doses and one for enema doses (if not being given Sub Q fluids or on IV's, enemas are or may be necessary to prevent dehydration). Make sure to mark the enema syringe clearly, as you never want to accidentally use an enema syringe for an oral dose, even after it's been washed, as you can reinfect a puppy with parvo.

Puppies/kittens weighing under 3 pounds need 5 to 6 ml syringes. Animals weighing 3-10 pounds need 12 ml syringes. Puppies weighing 11-20 pounds need 20 ml syringes. Puppies weighing 21-40 pounds need 50 ml syringes. Puppies 41-50 pounds need 60 ml syringes.
SYRINGE ~ 5 ml ~ $.85
SYRINGE ~ 6 ml ~ $1.00
SYRINGE ~ 12 ml ~ $1.75
SYRINGE ~ 20 ml ~ $2.50
SYRINGE ~ 60 ml ~ $3.25

AMBER GLASS BOTTLES ~ These are terrific for storing dried herbs, tinctures, colloidal silver, etc. All are boston rounds and have black plastic phenolic lids, unless noted. The misters are fabulous and deliver a very light and delicate mist. Excellent for misting the face or for animals who are shy of sprayers. The cute little 1/2 oz. droppers are perfect for splitting 1 oz. tincture bottles into two separate bottles.
