Herbs for Dogs – Herbs That Are Safe For Dogs
Here are 17 yummy, healthy herbs you can safely feed your dog:
- Basil has antibacterial anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, and is often used to promote overall good health. It can be given fresh or dry, sprinkled on your dog’s food.
- Simply Organic Basil Certified Organic, 0.54-Ounce Container
- Catnip. It’s not just for making cats euphoric! Catnip is an appetite enhancer, supports the gastrointestinal system, and soothes anxious and nervous dogs. It even promotes good sleep and repels mosquitoes! For dogs, sprinkle it on their food, or steep two teaspoons of dried catnip or four teaspoons of fresh catnip in boiling water, and add it to their food once it’s cooled. You can also put some fresh catnip leaves in drinking water or sprinkle dried catnip on your dog’s food.

- Dandelion leaves support liver function, support the cardiovascular system, and strengthen tooth enamel. They are packed with vitamins and minerals, making them a wonderful dietary addition for you and your dog. Dandelion root is a great source of inulin, which promotes gut health. The root stimulates bile production by more than 50 percent, and increases bile flow to the gallbladder, making it helpful for dogs with liver problems or gallstones. The flowers and greens can be dried and then sprinkled on the dog’s food as a supplement, and the root can be chopped up and added to any stew (dogs love this).

- Oregano is a “super herb” well known for its antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antiparasitic properties. Oregano soothes an upset stomach, inhibits the growth of bacteria, and can even help relieve muscle pain. It’s loaded with vitamins and minerals, and more antioxidants than blueberries! Take one teaspoon dried or two teaspoons fresh oregano, steep in boiling water for ten minutes, and drizzle on your dog’s food. You can also use oil of oregano, but it’s highly concentrated so use very small amounts. I use Oregamax, it works great and replaces antibiotics.
