So it sits on the shelf in my kitchen, totally ignored, water given when I remember, not when its thirsty. Yet very forging, still looks good, which surprises me. All in all a very easy plant to take care off.
I took care of this very lively young dog, who cut herself on the beach, either on some glass or a sharp shell.
We had snow on the ground, so it looked even more dramatic, blood all over the beach.
I know my customer had just lost her job and money was it little tighter then usual.
So I had two choices, I take her to the vet and he will bandage her up and tell me not to take her to the beach or I try something new and if that would not work, take her to the vet the next day.
I know my customer would wanted me to do what ever was best for the dog, money problem or not, but what concerned me almost more was not taking her to the beach.
She is one of those dogs who needs to run, she is young and full of life.
After cleaning the wound, I broke some part off the Aloe Plant and squeezed the jell into her cut, put a sock on the foot and let it soak in.
When she played outside in the yard, I took the sock off...well you get the drift. The bleeding got less and less, the wound looked clean. Even so when she was running on the beach, there was a little blood here and there, but she did not limp and the cut looked really good after a couple of days.
Not only did we safe money, but more so did she have all the fun she could have with her friend's on the beach.
Also I know that the Aloe Plant can not cure everything, one should give it a try when small injury do not look to bad.
Woof, Woof Sabine
