&lt;p&gt;Word of mouth is the best possible way of telling the world.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can see on Facebook lots of reviews including Charlotte Ward (British International Dressage Team) who recently posted a review saying how well it worked for one of her stressed horses !!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pet Remedy Diffusers</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143714?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Jun 2013 11:16:50 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:8b4de34e-a0c8-4f7e-ae10-63024dd9eb46</guid><dc:creator>julie cozze</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve recommended to a few people privately and they&amp;#39;ve had good results. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pet Remedy Diffusers</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143704?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Jun 2013 09:50:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:d1d0b1e5-3582-4886-b966-305dcbc28d3c</guid><dc:creator>martyn barklett-judge</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Morning Jen&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have a look at the Pet Remedy Facebook page...There are lots of reviews and comments there which will give you confidence.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will see it really works not just for cats and dogs, but rabbits, ferrets, horses,, parrots, and even their owners!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;email me for samples if you like at&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:martyn@unex.co.uk"&gt;martyn@unex.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is how we tell the world by word of mouth... In just 2 1/2 years we are already in 546 vet practices and most of the big rescue organisations...All this based onm trials and tests before taking it on...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Great to hear you have tried the spray.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The smell is from the valerenol and valerenic acid in the valerian which is a bit smelly although many pets love it, especially cats.&amp;nbsp; These are the main actives in the blend that help calm fired up nerve cells.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is why we blend it with vetiver and basil and sage to give a more herbal and earthy smell.&amp;nbsp; I have explained more about how it works in a reply to another post which you can see if you like.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have a look at the Pet Remnedy Facebook page as there arew loads of reviews and comments there which will give you confidence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;email me &lt;a href="mailto:martyn@unex.co.uk"&gt;martyn@unex.co.uk&lt;/a&gt; and I can send you a plug in to try if you like!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bye for now &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Martyn&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pet Remedy Diffusers</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143702?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Jun 2013 09:39:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:311ef59c-16de-4728-98af-edf91bbe7caf</guid><dc:creator>martyn barklett-judge</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Celine... I have just read your concern about the aroma&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pet Remedy is valerian based but blended with vetiver (from Indonesia and Nepal) and basil and sage./&amp;nbsp; All of these essential oils work via the GABA pathway, but they are carefully&amp;nbsp;blended to balance the aroma, so it smells more earthy and herbal and not toooo much just of valerian as valerian is really a bit smelly.&amp;nbsp; Most cats really love the aroma!!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The clever thing is the low dosage and constant slow release.&amp;nbsp; This is very gentle on any mammal (so cats, dogs, horses, rabbits, ferrets, even their owners!) and birds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How does it work?&amp;nbsp; The actives trick a fired up (by adrenaline) nerve cell into thinking it is getting a calming message from the brain.&amp;nbsp; (This by the way &amp;nbsp;is how the benzodiazepines work...They mimic GABA)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does it work... well just look at the reviews and comment on the Facebook page!!! Also big study on 50 stressed dogs currently under way at Exeter University.&amp;nbsp; Going really well and half way through the trial...Comprises double blind trials, videoing, heart monitoring and cortisol level tesing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The sprays are water based and&amp;nbsp;PH neutral so safe on your skin and on the coat of the pet.&amp;nbsp; Simply spray on bedding or bandana, or rub a little on their muzzle, under chin, and on chest... Really works.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;email me for samples to try!&amp;nbsp; (we already supply 546 vet practices and most of the big rescue organisations and all this from trialing with good results!)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="mailto:martyn@unbex.co.uk"&gt;martyn@unex.co.uk&lt;/a&gt; is the email address&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh and nearly half the price of other calming productrs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pet Remedy Diffusers</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143629?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 22 Jun 2013 14:08:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:7b2aef21-84df-4287-b5c5-aaf69a7813b0</guid><dc:creator>Celine</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Mmm, couldn&amp;#39;t comment on the effect but we had one plugged in for a couple weeks and it does have a noticeable smell - not entirely unpleasant but I&amp;#39;d consider it a &amp;quot;strong&amp;quot; smell and I did feel that cats might be a bit offended by it, but then I&amp;#39;m always a bit suspicious of using essential oils near cats, sensitive little tyrants that they are...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Pet Remedy Diffusers</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/143624?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 22 Jun 2013 12:17:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:2aaddb2f-07af-496d-985d-e11b35ed2457</guid><dc:creator>Amy-Marie O&amp;amp;#39;Sullivan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;We have only used the little samples you can get at congress, to me it is very much like feliway/adaptil... it seems to depend on the animal!
