Our Story
Finding Rhia
It all started with a little corgi-chihuahua called Rhia who needed a new home. Her owner brought her to my house to see if we were a match and I’ll never forget how proud and terrified she seemed cowering in the corner of my kitchen. After a few hours, she hopped onto my lap and the deal was sealed for both of us.
A herbal alternative
Despite healing in many ways, Rhia remained very nervous and shaky. I didn’t want to give her any chemicals to soothe her but I realised I had no idea what natural alternative was out there.
After a lot of online research, I administered lemon balm to her. She took to the plant quickly and immediately became calmer and more focused. We kept the treatment going, and after a year, Rhia was a different dog: gradually shedding her nervous shell to reveal her true, highly-intelligent nature.
Founding Green Puppy
Through caring for Rhia, I realised how tricky it is to source natural and sustainable pet products – even for the most common ailments like worms, fleas or ticks. I want Green Puppy to help solve that.
