Over the food

Clove extract is a liquid product and can be easily added to the food. Whether you feed raw meat, kibble, or wet food, it can be applied to all of them. What is important is to always start with a low dosage. Due to the powerful smell and taste, many dogs need time to get used to clove. Start with a drop, for example, and gradually increase it over a few days. For regular maintenance, you only need to give clove extract once a day, but in acute situations, you can give it up to a maximum of 3 times a day. You can also make it more palatable by adding salmon oil to the food.

Directly in the mouth

Not all dogs will eat clove extract over their food due to the strong taste and smell, but these dogs often benefit from it. It is also possible to give clove extract directly into the mouth with a syringe or a dropper. The dosage for clove extract for dogs is relatively low, making it easy to administer. To mask the taste, it can be mixed with salmon oil. Administer it into the back of the mouth so it is swallowed immediately.

Choose what suits your dog!

Whether you add clove extract over the food or directly into the mouth, it does not make a difference in terms of effectiveness. Choose the application that suits your dog. Some dogs love it and can have it over their food. Some dogs need to get used to it, but can still have it over their food. If your dog resists the direct application, consider if clove is really suitable for your dog.

Humans and mammals have a system of tiny transmitters and receivers in their bodies, which ensures that signals from cells go to the brain and vice versa. This way, the brain knows if something is wrong somewhere and can send helper substances or other cells to the right location to address a disturbance, intruder, or problem. This system is called, with a difficult word, the 'endocannabinoid system'. And no, this is not science fiction!

For example, in oxygen transport, the proper functioning of the nervous system, bone formation, the gastrointestinal s...

Every mammal has an endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS was discovered about thirty years ago and consists of a system of receptors that exchange signal substances. This way, signals about the health and balance of the body are delivered to the right places.

A very important system, therefore, that influences a wide range of physical and mental co...
