Lady & The Tramp-oline
 

  • Penelope is a rambunctious Husky who has caused a stir her whole life.

  • She would never calm down, and her neediness was only matched by her cuteness. Needless to say, Penelope’s relationship was a labor of love for a while.

  • That was the case until she started watching television. Her eyes are GLUED to the tube when it’s on, and eventually she saw a video of a dog on a trampoline.

  • She couldn’t take her eyes off the bouncing dog, so her owner decided to get her a trampoline of her own. Her owner reports that it has made her 5% calmer, and she absolutely loves it.

Lesser Known Natural Relief for Dogs

When it comes to keeping our dogs happy and comfortable, natural remedies can be a wonderful addition to their care routine. Whether your pup struggles with anxiety or needs extra support for mobility, certain natural ingredients have been researched for their beneficial effects. Today’s guide explores lesser-known options for emotional and joint relief, with safe ways to incorporate them. Let’s get started!

 

Safe & Natural Calming Ingredients for Dogs

If your dog experiences stress, nervousness, or trouble relaxing, these natural compounds have been studied for their calming effects:

  • Chamomile: Research has shown that chamomile can help reduce mild anxiety and promote relaxation in both humans and animals. (Source)

  • L-Theanine: A study found that L-theanine supplementation significantly reduced anxiety-related behavior in dogs. (Source)

  • Tryptophan: This essential amino acid has been shown to improve mood and reduce aggression in dogs by increasing serotonin levels. (Source)

  • Passionflower: Research suggests that passionflower extract may help reduce anxiety by increasing GABA levels in the brain. (Source)

For a simple way to introduce these calming ingredients into your dog’s routine, check out this calming oil and these calming chews designed specifically for pets!

 

Natural Mobility Relief Ingredients for Dogs

As dogs age or experience joint discomfort, natural compounds can provide support. Here are some scientifically studied ingredients for mobility:

  • Green-Lipped Mussels: Studies show that green-lipped mussels contain omega-3 fatty acids and chondroitin, which help reduce joint pain and improve mobility in dogs. (Source)

  • MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane): MSM has been found to reduce inflammation and improve joint flexibility in dogs with osteoarthritis. (Source)

  • Turmeric: Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, has been shown to reduce pain and inflammation in dogs with arthritis. (Source)

For an easy way to provide mobility support, check out these hip & joint chews and this mobility oil for long-term joint health.

 

Using Natural Ingredients for Pets Safely

While these ingredients have proven benefits, it’s important to source them safely. Many human-grade supplements contain added ingredients or concentrations that may not be suitable for dogs. Instead of trying to formulate your own, opt for trusted pet-specific products that are properly dosed and formulated.

For safe and effective options, we recommend Lolahemp, a company that specializes in high-quality, pet-friendly formulations backed by research. Always consult your veterinarian before introducing new supplements into your dog’s diet to ensure the best results.

By using natural remedies responsibly, you can help your dog feel their best—both emotionally and physically!
