Herbal wellness for people & dogs
Welcome to
Aloka Botanicals
It was 3 decades of dog rescue work that led me to create Aloka Botanicals. Because shelter animals suffer terrible stress, leading to euthanasia, and because of Wonder Dog Rescue's Holistic approach to dog care, we have created a line of herbal oils to help others. We sell a line of aromatherapy and herbal products to pet owners and individuals, created to enhance calm and well being. We also make the dog oils available at no charge to rescue organizations.

Why herbs?
About Us
Using tried and trusted recipes, we create small batches of herbal salves and oils as well as aromatherapy blends which can be used on both humans and animals to help dispell pain and alleviate discomfort and anxiety. Each bottle is made individually, by hand, using organic herbs and oils wherever possible.
Our Mission
The Mission of Aloka Botanicals is to help educate the public about Holistic health, and to help relieve their suffering through the use of herbs and essential oils, along with complimentary trainings or therapies. We especially intend to help ease the extreme stress of shelter animals by donating products to rescue groups and to any shelter which will use them.
Our History
Aloka Botanicals was born out of my 35 years of dog rescue work in California. I saw how using herbs and oils could contribute to the overall calm and well being of the animals in our care. I had personally used herbs for many years, and believed in the strength of this type of 'medicine'. The first formula created was for dogs with fear and separation anxiety, because of one of our foster dogs. Biggie started this revolution!! Within the coming months we will expand to products for cats and small animals as well as more products for the people who love them!

Daily connection rituals.
Essential Oils for Dogs are applied topically. You can start with just a drop or two (more for a larger dog) and run the oil from the top of the head to the tail. It's great to add in a massage, to spread the oil and calm the animal.
Essential Oils for people - Essential oils are applied topically, generally on a pulse point. They can also be rubbed into the hands lightly and spread over and into a particular area, i.e. knees, shoulder, etc.
Topical Herbal Balms and sprays for people contain only herbs and oils which had beneficial properties complimentary to one's need. These are used for pain, bug sprays, cleansing and more.
Canine Behavioral Consultations are available for people using the oils with their dogs, or for people wishing to address a particular behavioral problem with their pet. We also consult with families to guide them in bringing a dog into their home. Positive reinforcement is the only method offered in consultations, which are done primarily online.
