Aromatherapy 4 Pets

What is aromatherapy?

Aromatherapy is an excellent natural therapy for horses and dogs, not for cats though. Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils as a therapy to certain physical and mental ailments. When essential oils penetrate the bloodstream, they release their components that act on the various systems of the body and promote self-healing.

Animals react well to it and it is easy to use as long as you know which essential oils to use on your pets.

14	(Book) Feeding Horses in Australia "Feeding Horses in Australia", John Kohnke. This book provides a comprehensive review of horse nutrition and feeding in Australia. It gives sound guidelines on feeding practices unique to Australian conditions. The important role of pasture is highlighted as a natural feed for horses, and practical recommendations are made on the amount of supplementary feed required relative to pasture productivity. The book also provides extensive information on the values and selection of feeds needed to formulate a diet to meet a specific horse’s requirements. One unique feature is the simplified method of formulating a ration for a fully stabled horse using a step-by-step process with practical guidelines and minimal use of tables, thus avoiding the need for complicated calculations.	122
