Black Obsidian
Potentially one of the most widely used healing crystals for dog aid. The beautiful Black Obsidian Healing Crystal reduces feelings of loneliness and soothes the nerves of your dogs when left alone. No wonder why many dog parents utilize this healing crystal to counteract separation anxiety. Other than being a great dog sitter, this healing crystal also increases and strengthens the creativity in your dogs, allowing them to learn new tricks at a much faster pace. Creativity leads to higher intelligence which in turn leads to better perceptive abilities such as accessing a situation better before instinctively running in.
Chevron Amethyst
The Chevron Amethyst is said to emit a chill vibe and reduce your dog’s need to bark. Barking might be seen as disobedient behavior but in fact, dogs tend to bark when they are anxious. This healing crystal does the perfect job to reduce these anxieties and panic attacks and allow your dogs to live a more free, easy-going life. Elderly dogs can greatly benefit from this healing crystal as it also reduces joint pain and muscle aches.
Rose Quartz
Rose quartz is one of the best stones for rescue dogs. Since it’s the "crystal of love," it’s ideal for canines who may have gone through a traumatic event in the past. Dogs that often exhibit excessive anxiety or depressive-like tendencies can enjoy this stone. This is because rose quartz is well-known to show unconditional love. It could help them heal psychological or emotional trauma. Dogs' hostility has also been observed to decrease after using this gem. If your new furry friend seemed to be distant from you, use this crystal to help them open up to you. The crystal is also known to ease muscle tension and accelerate the healing process for injuries.
Clear Quartz
The “Master Healer” of all crystals. The Clear Quartz is known by many crystal enthusiasts as a stone that amplifies and strengthens the healing aura of other crystals. By itself, it increases focus and communication for better training and also cleanses and rids the body of any negative toxins while also strengthening the immune system. To make the most out of your Clear Quartz, put other healing crystals whether it be the Rose Quartz or even the Black Obsidian to maximize the healing potential on those healing crystals.
Sodalite
Known for its calming ability in hyperactive and aggressive dogs. The Sodalite is a powerful and beautiful blue crystal that is guaranteed to help your dog balance their emotions. As mentioned above, biting and barking can be due to many reasons that stem from anxiety and this healing crystal helps your dog understand that everything is going to be alright. Not only will the Sodalite calm the biting and the barking but also help reduce inflammation in both the body and the mind while also boosting self-esteem and clearing insecurities in your defensive dogs.
Smoky Quartz
This Healing Crystal acts purely as a protection amulet that focuses on maintaining all the positive aura built around it instead of creating more. A great crystal to have for multiple pets at home as it creates a safe and grounding environment that helps all your pets socialize. The Smoky Quartz also eases any form of pain your dog might be experiencing and also rejuvenates the muscles in your dog. Any ailments related to the reproductive and nervous systems will also be healed by the Smoky Quartz.
Tourmaline Quartz
A combination of the Clear Quartz and the Tourmaline. The Tourmaline Quartz holds the healing properties of both the Clear Quartz and the Tourmaline. Similar to the smoky quartz as a protection amulet, this crystal purifies the energy around it, getting rid of any negative auras that dare to come near. This healing crystal also heals ailments in the digestive tract while detoxifying the body from any unwanted toxins. The Tourmaline Quartz is also said to strengthen the immune system to help relieve any kinds of body aches and sores.
