Dog Depression

Dog Depression

My three year old dog has suffered from various allergies since he was 12 weeks old. I have done everything I can and seem to be on the right track by curing his leaky gut. However, he is very depressed and I can only put this down to his allergies. He is walked twice a day, has a very active social life with other dogs and is not left alone for more than three to four days a day, if that. Can you please suggest a natural therapy, ie St John's Wort for my boy. Any help greatly appreciated.

Answer: Depression
Poor pooch! Rescue Remedy Bach Flower Extract is apparently quite helpful. You can get it from most chemists. Although I have never used it, or heard of it being used on one of my dogs. I think it would be best to look at the clinical route, do have a chat to your vet re: the depression - there are some new and very gental drug therpies on the market. Possibly look at getting a second opinion regarding the allergies, there might be something underlaying.
