Healthy Through the Year: Achieve a lot with little effort
There are many tips and tricks for a perfectly healthy furry friend – but do you really always need luxury products and expensive courses to keep your dog fit throughout the year? With our blog post, we want to give you a few tips on how you can do a lot for your furry friend's health with little effort.
Food supplements – how effective are they?
Every now and then, some pet owners probably wonder if the powders, oils, and additives really live up to their promises. Well, that depends heavily on the provider and the promised effect, of course.
Instead of opting for overpriced products, we at the Villa are happy to recommend products from Waldkraft, among others.
Waldkraft Supplements: the right one for every paw
Waldkraft was founded in 2018. Their mission? To create products that allow paws to go through life carefree. In their products, they combine the concentrated power of nature with scientific expertise and real-life experience.
They are particularly distinguished by the fact that they
constantly re-evaluate and meticulously create their blends and products. They are also known for their purist approach. Thus, their products only contain what truly helps.
Treating and Preventing Joint Problems
Again and again, we hear about or observe joint problems, especially in our senior dogs. With increasing age, joints, bones, and tendons are unfortunately more susceptible to injuries, overuse, or are simply worn out after a long life. In such cases, we always like to try to help with the following wonders of nature first.
-
Arthribasis
Arthribasis supports your senior dog, even if they don't (yet) show any discomfort, and provides optimal preventative care for old age!
Consisting of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), also known as organic sulfur, glucosamine, and chondroitin, Arthribasis, in conjunction with a balanced diet, supports your dog's musculoskeletal system. -
Arthritis
It's no coincidence that Arthridea is also called the "Goddess of Joints". It primarily helps with advanced joint problems in your paw.
The combination of MSM, collagen peptides, green-lipped mussels, and selected botanicals supports dogs who already suffer from joint problems. A dosage (depending on weight) is added to their meals. -
Eggshell powder
Speaking of our senior dogs... Not only the joints, but also the bones and teeth of a paw naturally need to stay strong.
Waldkraft's Eggshell powder is the perfect BARF supplement for old, kidney-diseased, sick, and nutritionally sensitive dogs to support their calcium balance. Eggshell powder is particularly suitable for all those four-legged friends who can no longer eat bones due to illnesses.
Regular visits to a qualified physiotherapist also counteract joint and bone problems. Especially the underwater treadmill can help in such cases. Since the dog's weight is supported by the water, your furry friend can move more easily and thus keep their musculoskeletal system flexible.

Help, my dog keeps eating poop: What can I do?
Do you also have a furry friend at home who, for some inexplicable reason, can't resist the smell of poop and then prefers to eat that... snack with a clump of grass? Yep, we're very familiar with this problem.
Often, a nutrient deficiency manifests itself in the dog starting to eat poop and grass. However, sometimes it also indicates acidosis.
Instead of just feeding bland food and waiting, we like to use the Grass and Poop Eater Drops from Tierliebhaber. You feed these practical drops to your dog, and presto, they regulate your dog's system.
Healing clay, anise, and fennel soothe the stomach, while rosehip and dandelion stimulate gastrointestinal function and strengthen the immune system. And then you can enjoy your walk without poop pralines and grass fondant!
Each can contains approximately 150 drops, so you can reapply the treatment as needed.

Spring in the Animal Kingdom: Hormonal Topics
Ah, spring. The sun is shining, the bees are buzzing, and emotions are running wild – especially for our unspayed and unneutered furry friends.
-
For males
Do you have a male dog who is neutered but still feels the spring in the air? Does he mount other dogs, ignore commands that he usually responds to perfectly, and is he overly clingy and/or dominant?
This often indicates a hormonal imbalance, which can throw not only you but also your pawed friend completely off balance. Chasteberry from Waldkraft can help regulate the hormone balance in such cases, so your snuggle buddy isn't enchanted by the seductive scent of bitches in heat.

-
For female dogs
Chaste tree is also, and especially, a practical little helper for female dogs. Depending on the cycle phase, which is influenced by hormones, your furry friend may show behavioural problems such as loss of appetite or irritability, and sometimes a false pregnancy. In such cases, we like to use Waldkraft's chaste tree. With the power of nature, it can ensure a harmonious cycle.
What do you and your furry friend like to use to ensure the health and long life of your cuddle bug? Do you have any tricks that we missed? We look forward to reading your tips in the comments!
