ALOE FOR DOGS
Why am I writing about Aloe for dogs? You may have read on my Aloe And Us page about how my Bearded Collie's stiff limbs led me to a rather special Aloe Vera drink. But for Sam’s arthritis I think my skepticism about the merits of ‘natural’ products might have won the day. It was because I cared about him so much that I’d reached the stage of “let’s try anything – as long as it’s safe!” Lower down (beneath the Aloe Berry Nectar tub) I’ll be listing some benefits your dog (and/or you!) might expect from Forever Living’s drinks.
Back to my story! Once I’d established that these particular Aloe products were manufactured without animal testing or cruelty of any kind, I was willing to give them a try. There was the added factor that recent vet bills had been high! If those could be reduced through this drink – well, that was a distinct bonus. I think that more and more people (and vets themselves) are opening their minds to some of the wonders that Nature can provide. As for animals – well, they trust us, don’t, they? In some cases, sadly, their trust is misplaced. Mostly, though, we humans do our best for our pets and beyond question it was a good thing for Sam when I opened my mind to Aloe’s potential benefits. Aloe seems to work faster in dogs than in humans, which is probably a size issue.

I put 60 mls of the Aloe Vera Gel on to Sam's evening meal, fully expecting him to turn his nose up at it. Why? Well, let’s just say at this stage that it is an acquired taste! Instead Sam, quite a finicky dog, showed more interest in his food than usual. He gulped it all down and – most unusually – licked his bowl clean. That was the first ‘miracle’ and others followed on quite quickly. Within two weeks Sam’s limbs were much more supple than they had been – and his ‘Beardie bounce’ was back. He seemed revitalised and more like a puppy than an eight-year-old. I couldn’t believe the change in him – and nor could my fellow dog-walkers, who soon started asking me “What on earth are you giving him?” I'd tell them "Aloe for dogs", adding in those early days "and other animals too, I imagine, including humans!"
The next question on the subject of aloe for dogs tended to be: “Can we have some?” So word spread, until eventually it reached the ears of our vet. Fortunately he was of the open-minded variety – so much so that he wanted to know how to obtain the Aloe drinks and other products at wholesale. Having seen the difference in Sam for himself, he was keen to let all his patients benefit. This they quickly did, once he registered as a Distributor.
Berry Nectar contains cranberry and apple as well as the Aloe. Yes, aloe for dogs makes perfect sense!

CAN YOU GIVE ALOE VERA GEL TO DOGS ON THEIR FOOD?Yes, you certainly can - and it's the best way to give Aloe Vera Gel to dogs! Why? Because then you know that it will all be ingested, whereas if you were to put it in the drinking water you couldn't necessarily be so certain. Dosage recommended by distinguished veterinary surgeon, David Urch BSc MA VetMB MRCVS (N.B. This applies to Forever's Gel only): Treatment dose/day: 60 mls Initial maintenance dose: 30 mls Long term maintenance dose: 15 mls (Incidentally, you can buy David's brilliant book ALOE VERA - NATURE'S GIFT (Aloe Vera in Veterinary Practice) by clicking the link):
