Find Relief For Your Pup’s Dog Depression With Natural Herbs

image for: Find Relief For Your Pup’s Dog Depression With Natural Herbs

Dog depression may look different in each animal.

Dogs can become depressed for a variety of reasons including:

  • The death of another dog or pet in the home
  • Moving to a new home
  • A child leaving for college

Luckily, dog depression is treatable.

However, because dog depression symptoms may also be caused by an underlying illness, check with your veterinarian before seeking treatment.

What Are The Symptoms Of Dog Depression?

Dog depression takes many shapes and forms, just like in people.

However, the following symptoms are the most common:

  • Lethargy
  • Avoiding going outside or on walks
  • Not wanting to play
  • Not wanting to eat
  • Sleeping more

How To Alleviate Dog Depression

According to a study published online in Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, herbal formulas achieve better effects with fewer side effects than conventional pharmaceuticals.

Furthermore, eight clinical trials and seven meta-analyses support this conclusion.

Kan Essentials Dispel Stasis In The Middle Palace is an herbal formula containing natural herbs to alleviate dog depression.

Prepared Cyperus Rhizome

Firstly, cyperus is most commonly prescribed for the treatment of dog depression.

Dong Quai Root

Dong Quai root, also known as Angelica Sinensis, has been shown to affect estrogen and other hormones in animals.

Firstly, the study showed that Dong Quai altered the activity of a protein in the brain linked to depression and normalized behaviors.

Secondly, another animal study had similar findings, showing an herbal treatment containing dong Quai had clear anti-depressant effects.

Chinese Red Peony Root

Red Peony Root is often recommended for depression.

Furthermore, multiple studies in animals show it has beneficial antidepressant qualities.

Sichuan Lovage Rhizome

Most importantly, veterinarians recommend Lovage for its pain-relieving properties.

Carthamus Flower

Multiple studies show Carthamus, also known as safflower, may offer antianxiety and antidepressant benefits.

Tree Peony Root Bark For Dog Depression

Also, tree peony root bark shows benefits for depression across multiple studies.

Firstly, an animal study from 2020 showed white peony root extract produces an anti-anxiety and antidepressant effect.

Secondly, a 2019 study found peony increases probiotics in the gut, which benefits anxiety and depression.

Dry Fried Peeled Peach Seed

Firstly, veterinarians commonly prescribe peach seed to improve digestion.

Secondly, peach seed extract offers analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-allergic effects.

Lastly, the peach seed has antitussive, anti-asthma, and anti-liver fibrosis effects.

Prepared Corydalis Yanhusuo Tuber For Dog Depression

Most importantly, studies show corydalis’ therapeutic efficacy against depression.

Dry Fried Bitter Orange Mature Fruit For Dog Depression

Studies show orange offers anti-anxiety effects.

Additionally, veterinarians recommend bitter oranges for digestion.

Lindera Tuber

Additionally, studies show lindera has antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer effects.

Chinese Licorice Root And Rhizome

Licorice root is considered a potent antiviral, antimicrobial and antifungal.
