Saving You Money
The benefits of botanicals and herbs have been utilised by humans as medicaments and in grooming for centuries and the same can be said for their use in curing pet ailments and beautifying them too. Many modern medicines still have their basis in naturally occurring plants, examples include aspirin which is made from certain willow barks and some heart medicines which base their chemistry on that of the digitalis, more commonly known as foxglove.
At The Pets Larder we have a range of all natural treats, supplements and foods that use some of these magical plants and can help to keep your pets as healthy as can be. From Valerian, to keep those anxious dogs and cats calm, to fresh breath treats for your dogs that are loaded with peppermint and rosemary, using the best of what mother nature has to offer and keeping your pets diets wholesome and all natural is always at the heart of every product we stock.
Recorded history traces back the use of plants as remedies to the Middle East and one of the earliest known civilisations, Sumer. Over 5,000 years ago the Sumerians were compiling lists of plants and recording their properties and ever since people have employed the use of them in some aspect of their healthcare and still do, as It's estimated that over 25% of us in the UK still use herbal remedies in some aspect of our primary health care every year. It is also known that before the advent of modern veterinary practises around the 1930s all animal ailments would have been treated with herbs and other botanicals. At The Pets Larder we are dedicated to our all natural ethos and believe that many of these botanicals can be used alongside modern veterinary knowledge to help keep our pets thriving.
The use of botanicals in grooming has also long been a part of our daily routines, from lavender based soaps to tropical shampoos we always seem to turn to the natural world when it comes to things in our bathroom cabinets. There is evidence to show that botanicals have been used to make us smell better since the 2nd millennium BC in ancient Mesopotamia where various plants and flowers were distilled and added to oils to create scents. With such a rich past it's no wonder that there has also been a long history of using these natural wonders for beautifying our beloved pets too. At The Pets Larder, for example, we have products such as shampoos and perfumes made specifically for your pets that use only the very best of botanicals, allowing you to continue this rich tradition and keep your dog's lives as wholesome as possible in the process.
We've chosen a few of our favourite botanically brilliant products to give you a small taste of some of the myriad ways these magical plants can be used.
