When Cyd was at her worst, and I at my most despondent, I questioned whether I was a responsible pet owner. I desperately wanted homeopathy to “fix Cyd” but to my untrained eye she just kept getting worse.
With her body a mass of open wounds I felt guilty about the condition she was in. Eventually as she was nearing eleven, Bull Terriers are not especially long lived dogs, I decided to quit. Although I knew homeopathy would not kill Cyd it became
increasingly likely that something else, perhaps a disease of old age, might. ”I will never forgive Myself”, I said in March 2000, if Cyd dies and she spent the last 6 months of her life in this condition.


Body beautiful.
Cyd has been taking the correct Herbaticus supplements for the last year or so and apart from her feet, the rest of her body has worked through its cycles and is astoundingly healthy.
I never thought I would see Cyd, in the condition she is in today, without the intervention of antibiotics.
She is nearly 12 now and continues to improve daily.
Her re growth of fur is soft and shiny though patches remain where she once had bald spots. If I have one complaint it’s that Cyd’s supplements intake results, in incredible claw growth and the once infrequent battle to clip her claws has become a weekly showdown! Mind you, I prefer this fidgeting, objecting dog to the miserable looking specimen who, not so long ago, had to have daily baths to cleanse her matted fur and soothe her sore paws.
I have also had a huge change of heart about what are
undeniably Cyd’s last years. I know I will be devastated when Cyd dies, but having seen her so wretched in the past, I now feel every healthy day is an extra bonus. Eighteen months ago I never thought I’d feel like this and I must attribute this to
Herbaticus.




“The not so bald facts “Dogs today”

I was amazed, however to witness this happening. Aggressive patches of spots and boils would appear, for example on her neck or the inside of her thighs. After some weeks they would dwindle away to be replaced by a smaller crop. These too would disappear, the cycle ending with small scaly patches which soon healed to nothing. The products were clearly having a positive effect on Cyd, but progress was slow.
Fanny questioned me further about Cyd’s skin and amended the
supplements, changing the capsules and started the following daily regime:
One teaspoon of Wolle’s WOW - a finely balanced combination of herbs, Mineral and vitamins, one key ingredient of which is garlic.
Four x 1886 capsules and four x 809 tablets part of a system to
maintain a healthy metabolism in dogs (and cats) with boils and acne type spots. Two x 1892 capsules for three days then a break of 4 days (a weekly cycle) indicated in case of infection.
The treatments come from a comprehensive range of herbal mineral and vitamin food supplements, developed over six decades by the Danish naturopath Arno Wolle. The actual ingredients of these
supplements are too numerous to mention though a full description is listed on each product container. Herbaticus literature wisely says owners should not expect to see instant results and patience is
needed. Some cats, dogs or horses may be helped within one to three months. The condition of each animal will vary enormously and others will need the supplements for far longer.
Cyd has been on this new regime for eleven months and her feet are still sore. This doesn’t surprise me as it was always Cyd’s feet that were the worst aspects of her skin condition.
Previously she’d complete a program of antibiotic and would have clear skin and healthy feet, then her feet would redden and become sore again. It was just a matter of deciding when to return for more antibiotics.
She has had problems with the skin on her feet for the whole eight years I have owned her and I do not feel disheartened that they are still not perfect. I did learn one important lesson from homeopathy “alternative” medicines take time to work and importantly, I believe Cyd’s feet will continue to improve.
