Dorwest Herbs – Raspberry Leaf

Natural support for your bitch or queen, whether pregnant or not A popular birth-aid with breeders, the use of raspberry leaf in pregnancy is documented as far back as the 6th century and is still recommended by health and veterinary professionals today. When used in pregnancy, raspberry leaf helps to tone and maintain the strength of the muscles of the uterus in preparation for birth. It is also known for its hormone balancing properties, and so our tablets are helpful for supporting bitches who experience phantom pregnancies. How to use Raspberry Leaf Tablets To help prepare your bitch for whelping, we recommend to start using our Raspberry Leaf Tablets three weeks after mating and continue until one week after whelping. To help support bitches who experience phantom pregnancies, use from the first sign of her coming into season and continue for 12 weeks (which is when she would have whelped had she been mated). Ensure you continue in this way for every season, unless she is mated.
