ACUTE CANINE HERBALISM SPECIALIST

[ And You'll Learn How To Do THIS For Your Dog And For Clients ... ]

Are you happy with conventional medicines and drugs?

Let's face it ... going to the conventional vet's office can just make your dog sicker. 

Sure, the drugs, antibiotics and chemicals prescribed for common health issues often work in the short term ... but most medicines are toxic to your dog's body and these toxins create even more health issues in the long run.

For example, treating ear infections with antibiotics destroys both the good and bad bacteria in the ear and paves the way for new unwanted hosts to set up camp, causing ear infections to keep coming back.

Over time, bacteria can become resistant to modern drugs and antibiotics just stop working. Heartworms and intestinal worms are also becoming immune to drugs.

Pharmaceuticals are not the answer ...

FACT: You Can Manage Common Conditions With Herbs WITHOUT Compromising Long Term Health.

(That means making your dog healthier, not just free of disease)

Many drugs and pharmaceuticals are manufactured from herbs ... but they're extracted and standardized in a lab and the resulting pills are very different from whole plant medicine. Herbs contain active ingredients plus important cofactors ... this makes herbs more effective (and safer) than drugs.

Drugs suppress symptoms and stress the immune system ... while herbs and whole plant medicine support the immune system and treat symptoms at their core.

Simply stated, herbs carry all the benefit of drugs without unwanted and unsafe side effects.

As dogs are dying younger and younger every year, the interest in herbal and natural medicines is growing quickly ... dog owners are starting to understand that drugs and chemicals are not the path to good health.

This is where you come in.

As an Acute Canine Herbalism Specialist, you'll be able to manage common health issues with herbs. From growing and harvesting your own herbs, to preparing recipes, you'll be prepared to replace harmful medications with whole plants. 

More specifically, after this master class, you'll be able to:

  • Make your own herbal medicines including tinctures, salves and infusions.
  • Harvest, wildcraft and dry your own herbs to save money.
  • Know the best places to buy herbs and how to safely store them.
  • Make  homemade herbal tinctures that are safer than store-bought herbs.
  • Know the difference between holistic and conventional herbalism (and how using some herbs in the wrong doses can be just as harmful as conventional medicine).
  • Safely combine or compound herbs to create formulas.
  • Get the supplies you need to start making herbal medicines from scratch.
  • Manage common acute health issues with herbs, including skin, eye, digestive and bladder problems, kennel cough, sprains and strains and much more.
  • Access a comprehensive library of ready-to-make herbal compounds for dozens of common health issues, from vomiting to fleas, and worms to itchy skin.

In short, you'll be prepared to respond to most acute injuries or illnesses with proven herbal recipes.

Are You Committed To Natural Medicine? 

(And Replacing Toxic Drugs & Meds With Herbs)

Then it's time to get certified ...

Your Dogs Naturally University certification means you'll be ready to confidently grow, harvest, compound and use herbal remedies to treat common acute issues ... either for your own dog or for the dogs and clients you work with. 

The Acute Canine Herbalism certification and badge are your way of showing you're committed to herbal medicine ... and they'll show others you've learned from one of the most trusted sources in natural dog care.

We built this course to get you started, quickly and safely, on your path to herbal healing.

Getting Certified Is Easy!

There Are Only 3 Simple Steps ...

Step 1: Take The Course

The Certification Course is 9 hours of video training and contains downloadable handouts and exercises. Most classes can be completed in a weekend if you're working on them full-time, but 7 to 14 days is the recommended time to complete the course.

Step 2: Pass The Test

Once you complete the course, you'll be able to sit for the final exam (which is taken online). The exam isn't tricky, but you'll need a passing grade of 75% to get certified and you can take the test up to three times. If you don't receive a passing grade after the third attempt, you'll be required to go back through the course again. The exam should take from 30 to 60 minutes to complete and consists of 75 multiple choice questions.

Step 3: Get Your Certificate And Badge

Upon successful completion of the course and exam, you'll receive a personalized badge and certificate. Your badge works with Mozilla's Open Badges Project, so it can be displayed in places that matter, including your website, email signature or LinkedIn profile. Plus you'll receive a full color certificate that's suitable for framing so you can display your achievement.
