Last year my horse sustained a digital flexor tendon tear. I made a poultice out of comfrey leaves and roots. The vet told me we would be looking at 9-12 months recovery. We were back to light work in 6 months. I chose not to do stall rest for a variety of reasons, but I am a firm believer the comfrey accelerated the healing process.
Good work Jennifer. Comfrey is amazing for accelerating healing.
Doc Jones
How often did you put the poultice on the horse?
@@MFaith777 I did it every day for about 6 weeks, and at the ultrasound recheck the vet said he could already see remarkable healing. I dropped down to every other day until it got cold. By that time I was hand walking him around the property. The poultice is something my dad taught me to do when I was little and we would cover it in plastic wrap before wrapping it with a bandage. I didn’t want to put more stress on Harleys tendons or ligaments so I did not wrap. Instead I added beeswax to make it thicker and allowed it to stay on. Doc Jones mentioned something about a tincture which piqued my interest. He might have a better method, but it worked regardless. My dad would also steam a fresh leaf and wrap around the injury, covering in plastic wrap for several hours. It works remarkably well too. The only thing I would caution on is using it on an open wound. Sometimes it can heal too quickly and trap infection in if not properly cleaned.
Florence Nightingale also noticed that injured soldiers who were exposed to fresh air and sunshine (fantastic antibiotic) recovered much faster. The nurses would wash the soldiers' clothes so they were clean, then put them on cots out in the air. And yet we build hospitals that have no fresh air circulation and wonder why hospitals infect so many people. We have digressed in many ways. Thanks for this video as I have more information to work on now.
I love Doc Jones!! Not only am I a student in his on-line course, I have also attended live classes in Idaho. Traveling was long but worth it! Josh and Caroline, this is one of the best videos in my opinion. If we can all get away, as much as possible, from all of the big pharma, our health will be much better. I have many tintures of Doc Jones that I have ordered, he also sales the dried herbs for you to add to vodka to make your own until you are comfortable about growing and harvesting your own. What a blessing it is to be educated by Josh and Caroline!!
I'm glad you're enjoying the school Kerri. Thanks for watching. :0)
Doc Jones
My husband and I started a sustainable permaculture garden on our entire lawn this year. We are exclusively planting edible or medicinal plants, shrubs and trees. Glad to know we are heading in a good direction!
I used to ride competitively in South Africa my best mare got a three corner cut on her Joint it meant she would have been out of action for the season. A comfrey poultice healed it so fast she was able to compete and win!! From then on I have always had comfrey in my yard.
It really is a must-have herb. Russian comfrey (a.k.a. BOcking-14 Comfrey is particularly nice to grow because it's sterile and won't spread by seed to take over your whole place. :0)
Doc Jones
@@HomeGrownHerbalist Thanks for the advice I have a huge property so I honestly don't mind it spreading a bit.
Thank you!!!!!!!!! Introducing all of us to Doc Jones has been eye opening. Teaching why an herb works, it's basic properties, and how to apply that information situationally is awesome! Carolyn's' video was so true when she talked about trying to memorize lists of herbs. Doc shows a different way of understanding what herbs do and how to know what to use. Again, thank you Homesteading Family for these awesome videos!
I love Doc Jones and listen to him every chance I get. Hoping to take his course soon. It is next in line after getting a freeze dryer. I’m an RN and already grow quite a number of herbs. Thanks for having him on your RUclips channel.
Holler when you're ready Lori. I'd love to join you on that journey. I have a freeze dryer...I find learning about herbs much less aggravating. LOL In the mean time, the website and my HomeGrown Herbalist RUclips channel have some good info.
Doc Jones
Nurse here as well and can’t wait to afford to sign up for the class under Doc Jones!!! ❤️
This is so timely! Our dog just had hyper parathyroid ablation and they also discovered a tumor on her adrenal gland. She is a Mongolian herding dog and I am going to start making her food. I have researched that going forward giving her homemade food will be better for her than feeding her so much stuff that I can’t even pronounce. Thank you so much for all the information you are giving us from the different speakers you are interviewing. I am going to check out his course on herbs.
Sadly, we're doing the same thing to our dogs' diets as we're doing to our own...too much highly processed food they were never designed to eat. Good for you for making your own. She'll feel lots better.
Doc Jones
I’ve had to cook for my dog for 14 years. He’s allergic to the world for the most part but cooking for him has been very beneficial for him. He got one allergy shot a year till 5 year’s ago and because of his age I stopped getting them. He will be 15 in September and is a bichon frise. He has skin tags and cataracts now but gets around just fine. Even has puppy moments. They are getting fewer but that’s expected at his age. I cook a big batch of chicken and veggies once a week. I add rice for the bulk so he’s not starving by morning and it’s the only grain he can eat.
Good program ! Thank - you Doc Jones & Homesteading Family ! 👏. .👏. .👋
I wish I lived closer to the doctor. I have been looking for a veterinarian like him!!
Fantastic info! I used to work at a horse rescue and the founder was open to me experimenting with herbal sprays and essential oils... Wish I had heard this back then.
Thank you so much for this much needed information. Great guest!!!
Thanks for watching Robin. Glad you enjoyed it
Doc Jones
Thank you so much for this! I have been using herbs for my dog for 2 years now. He is getting older (almost 13) and the "high quality" foods he used to thrive on are no longer of the same quality and his health started to decline. I just bookmarked both websites and subscribed to the Homegrown Herbalist.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your education and your knowledge.
Thanks for taking the time to watch. :0)
Doc Jones
We had a German Short-hair Pointer..A friend brought us some homemade peanut butter/chocolate bars as we were leaving for the night - I put them on Top of the fridge.Silly dog jumped up on the counter and somehow managed to reach and eat the ENTIRE pan..she lived lol
Thank you so much for sharing all of this amazing information. I really admire you and your work. Thank you for all the wonderful work you do in the world!
Doc is the best! The HomeGrown Herbalist School is dynamite for an in-depth, well-rounded herbal education. I have been in the school for a few years now and it's one of the best things I've done to further my education and learn about herbal medicine in an organized way from someone very grounded and knowledgeable. I can't say enough about how great it is! The longer I practice, the more confidence I gain from experience. My understanding and abilities with herbal medicine benefit my family and friends on a weekly, if not daily basis.
Love doc Jones! I have learned alot from watching his youtube. Good job guys! Really enjoyed this :)
Glad you enjoyed it.
Doc Jones
Ooooh...looking at those lovely teas! I have found where I'm Christmas shopping for my loved ones!
And I see tinctures I don't have. AND as a budding herbalist myself (pun intended) THANK YOU guys for sharing this! Amazing information that can help the world heal. Oh boy, do we need that right now! Stop outsourcing your health! You are your best advocate for a happy life.
Yeah, we recently developed a whole line of really tasty teas. Lots of fun. :0)
Doc Jones
EXCELLENT info! Thanks for sharing and being so specific.
Loved this video! Please, please write a book about this subject! Also, until that happens 😁, are there any books on herbal animal care that you would recommend?
@Allison Acorn
Check out Juliette de Baïracli Levy books on animal care; she was a vet/herbalist. Look for her story on RUclips called “Juliette of the Herbs”. Susan G Wynn has a book-Veterinary Herbal Medicine & another handy book to have on hand is the Merck Veterinary Manual.
Of course, Doc’s herbal school course is Superior. He really knows how to simplify everything so that it makes sense for everyday folks :)
Loved the chat and will check out Doc Jones as soon as I am done writing. Fabulous! Thank you!!
Thanks Suse.
Doc Jones
My understanding was that chocolate for dogs is a matter of allergies. I was told by multiple vets that if your dog has an allergy to it, you'll know immediately. If they don't have the allergy, then the worst they'll get is diarrhea (for my sized dogs at least).
This was a great video, as was the tour through Carolyn’s herbal garden. I wish I had known about Doc this past winter when I had two sick chickens, that I eventually lost after months of care. I really miss their beautiful large, blue eggs and gentle temperaments.
Wonderful vlog; thanks for sharing! Many blessings to your family 🤗❤️🇨🇦
Great series. I love Doc Jones he's a legend. So informative and he makes herbs so undaunting which I appreciate. Thank you. Time to get growing 💗
I’m so glad you guys had the homegrown herbalist on. He is just a fount of knowledge.
Fantastic interview! Thanks so much for it
Glad you enjoyed it.
Doc Jones
Excellent interview thank you
I loved this you guys!! Thank y’all! God bless!
Thanks Momma. :0)

I love Learning from doc jones, I think I’ve watched all of his videos. I would love to join his school
This was great to watch and I learned so much!! Thank you for sharing Doc Jones with us and I am looking forward to going to his website and you tube channels to learn even more. Thanks again!
Excellent informative, thank you!
Good morning
Herb remedies, Yes!!
Good morning. :0)
Doc Jones
Really appreciate you and Carolyn for the instruction to Doc and can't wait to check out his resources. He has a wealth of knowledge and a gift for teaching.
Awesome video! Thanks so much!
I hope he writes a book for animal treatment..pictures of edibles identifying.how it grows etc.
Love 🐶 Love 🌱 Love ❤️ this video & info!!! Doc Jones just got a new subscriber 🤩 Thanks Josh!
Very interesting, thank you guys! Love it!
Hello cami how are you doing today?
This was so interesting! I will find the good Dr.
Glad you enjoyed it Ramona.
Doc Jones
I have some of these in my yard. No pesticides in the yard. Thank you.
Excellent! It really is amazing how much medicine we're surrounded with if we start looking. :0)
Doc Jones
Thank you so very much.... I need to learn so much to help heal my dog. Gut issues, possibly kidney.... Thank you.💞💞💞💞🤗🤗🤗🤗
There are lots of good plants that can help both of those systems.
Doc Jones
Herbalism is so interesting. Maybe I'll take the class this winter. And knowing he is a vet too. makes his knowledge even more interesting to me. Poor ole Shep needs some pain relief.
Never use Pharmaceuticals! Sorcery
This was such an interesting interview. My dog has been diagnosed with Transitional Cell Carcinoma and I've thought I should investigate herbal treatment. The NSAID creates gastrointestinal upset for her so I cannot keep her on it continuously. I'm going to sign up for Doc Jones site.
Wow! Thanks so for introducing us to Mr Doc Jones!!❤️
So blessed by your sight
Our Chocolate Labrador ate berries and grapes. He picked them himself. He weighed 95+ pounds and wasn't fat. He was easily the height of a Chessy but muscular - registered Labrador.
So very insightful!! Thank you for this !!
Thank u for these two interviews with Doc Jones. I had never heard of him, and I am definitely planning to attend his school at some point now!!
Thank you forsharing!!
:0)
Thank you. This was an enjoyable interview with fine points and information. I wondered about chocolate.
Yup. It's all just a question of dosage per pound. I had a client bring me a chihuahua once that was dangerously drunk. He'd been having a party and she'd been taking little sips from anyone' glass that got set on the floor next to a couch or chair. The owner couldn't figure out how she'd gotten so drunk from just taking little sips all night. I had to explain that it doesn't take much booze to get you sloshed if you only weigh four pounds.
Doc Jones
I am so glad you guys have introduced me to Doc Jones. I just received my order of calendula powder, yarrow powder, comfrey powder, brigham tea powder, and crampbark tincture. The only one I've used so far is the crampbark, and it's phenomenal! I have a 9-year-old cat who has some systemic allergy, we don't know what, and the itching drives her crazy. She will scratch till her ears are bloody. She now lives in a collar, but she still occasionally scratches her nose till it bleeds, and she's pretty miserable. She also has IBD, so I have to be very careful what she ingests. Any suggestions?
Where are you getting the herb powders?
But thank you for your info.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Doc Jones
What is the combination of herbs that you used to make a tincture/spray for dog wounds? Alcohol based?
Thank you for this so helpful
Oh , thank you 🙏
I was wondering , how the tincture was to be useful on an open wound , and not sting 😢.
This is wonderful content!
Very informative!
I really would like to know about herbal first aid. That sounds interesting.
There's a little video here that I did on the topic if you like
ruclips.net/video/4y1JOvIHOX8/видео.html.
I loved this video. Would love to learn more on this topic. In greater details.
I completely agree about local but small herds of livestock do not pay the way.
Good information! Excellent video.
Thanks for taking the time to watch.
Doc Jones
Oh nice we are in moho! Not too far from us! Nice to meet you!
This was great. I'm hoping I can talk my grand daughter in taking your on line class. She is going to go too school to be a Vet. Teck.
We have a cat that is 9 years old and he had an infection in his jaw. I used organic raw coconut oil. We did take him to the vet. He gave us an antibiotic and a shot that I didn't care to have. It started to come bake that's when I used the coconut oil. It got cleared up but now he is losing a lot of weight. What will help put weight back on I was wondering.
SO GOOD!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Love Doc Jones! Any suggestions for botulism in horses from bad hay?
MUST WATCH
Thank you for a fantastic video. Very very informative and enjoyable.
I watch every video. I have for years. I don't comment alot but here goes. What the hell, why can't people be DECENT just decent. My t.v. is youtube but I wonder if so much of this started with social media. I do believe most people would not say things like ths to peoples faces, but it appears they think it. My Mom' answer to most things was get to work, when people really work they don't have as much time or energy to be crappy. People need to close their mouth and get to work.
I'll be using the links- thanks so much for sharing. Hoping to attend the school summit, as well.
Question: does he have his mixture receipes printed, that I could purchase from somewhere? Or, could purchase a download? I work better with printed ingredients listing & measurements.
Thanks for your help! 🙏🏻
Everything we do in the HomeGrown Herbalist School can be downloaded and printed. That school also has every herb formula I've ever done.
Doc Jones
Thanks so much! 👍
What would you suggest for a diabetes type 2 herbal garden I live in the Pacific Northwest specifically specifically Forest Grove Oregon
would it be better to ad tincture made from glycerine in the spray bottle or has the alcohol also have some benefits (besides sting tremendous when spraying on an open wound).
Glycerin can grow bacteria so glycerite use on an open wound topically is likely to cause problems. If you dilute the tincture with a little water (1 tsp tincture to 2-4 oz water) the don't sting much. Also, you can just make a tea if you like and spray that on.
Doc Jones
I cannot believe I didn't see a notification when this episode was posted! Thank the good Lord I noticed the thumbnail, great video! My dog has congestive heart disease and is on fluorosamide (no idea how to spell that) & enalapril - I've been watching Doc Jones' videos on herbal medicine and I'm going to see if my vet would be willing to work with me on transitioning her from pharmaceuticals to herbs. Having taken her to two other vets who I was completely dissatisfied with, her current vet's first move was to slowly reduce her Lasix dose by 75%...so she might be willing to try this.
Hello Karen 👋 nice meeting you here on RUclips How are you doing today?
My sons dog was a rescue with horrible skin issues. Her feet bleed from blisters. CSU Veterinary Teaching school prescribed her 20mg of prednisone! (People usually get 10mg or less) I told him to reduce it and to give her dandelion to protect her kidneys and liver. Hes now giving her less than 1/4 of a tablet of prednisone, shes lost 10 lbs, rarely has an episode. Last week she tore her ACL and her bloodwork came back and her kidneys and liver are both in perfect shape. Unfortunately, this is her 2nd ACL surgery this year! The surgery is $5k! This dog has such a personality and he adores her, but she has been so high maintenance. I just feel terrible hes having this problem when everything is so crazy. He seems fine tho.
Unfortunately, there isn't an herb that can fix a torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament for those watching at home). Sometimes you just need a good mechanic. Good call on the dandelion. :0)

Can the herbs be freeze dried ? Or is dried better ?
Really fascinating
What do we feed dogs other than dog food
There are some good raw food diets out there. Primal and Nature's variety are good. Or you can just make your own. There are lots of recipes on the internet. Or, just get a good quality dry food that doesn't have a grain as its main ingredient.
Doc Jones
Can y’all link his books?
Try going to his website.
Can the alcohol based spray be made with something besides alcohol? Due to the burning pain from alcohol.
You can just make a tea and use it the same way. But the quickest way is to use a tincture and put 1 tsp tincture into 2-4 oz water. That dilutes the alcohol enough for an open wound to make it's not a deal breaker.
Doc Jones
@@HomeGrownHerbalist Thanks. Glad you are doing well.
Please tell me where you bought roll of construction paper.I watch all of Carolyn's videos.I saw she and the doc's in her cottage garden.
Thank you, I've used herbs for healing my family and my pets for years. Mother Earth's Free and Best medicines in the world.
So much knowledge and information in his brain but so hard to get to it :(
Just wish when he is teaching or sharing his valuable knowledge it was more direct, consolidated and serious, It might just be my learning style but I find it hard to gain very much in the time spent listening.
Don’t intend to complain, just a perspective from a viewer !
Blessings
I would like to ask the doctor for some good homemade dog food recipes. Since there’s a shortage of commercial foods, I plan to make my own for my 2 dogs. What kinds of vitamin and mineral supplements would be needed? Thanks!
A friend of mine is a dog trainer. She has fed her dogs Raw for more than 10yrs. Her dogs coats are so shiny and they're extremely healthy. I feed my Yorkies fish. The sardines are small, and they LOVE them! If you want to feed veggies you can, but I've found most dogs don't really care for veg much. Some dogs will eat anything if they think it's yours, though 😁
Theres lots of books on feeding raw, even some with recipes using rice.
PS, sardines are really stinky! I feed them outside and through in the outdoor garbage can. You could wear gloves too.
Feed organs and eggs and no supplements needed
I would too, Jen. I just purchased the crockpet diet online and will be trying that. The vet that formulated it lost a pet due to issues that kibble exasperated.
Thanks for the replies! I have some homework to do now. 😊 I have one little dog that will eat anything we put in his mouth, but the other little guy is much pickier. But with “real” food, he’d probably be more interested in eating it.
What is the online school? I'm missed it and went back but couldn't write it fast enough

How can I get all the herbs seeds you have to plant to buy
We like www.strictlymedicinalseeds.com.
Would love to know where there's a good herbalist vet in our area,
Michigan, was going to do the
school, but life had other plans.
I learn as I go, and they (herbs) are the same for human and animals!
( most vet's pharmaceutical are same we use)
❤️❤️❤️
I rarely go to western medical doctor. My chiropractor & acupuncturist use eastern medicine & herbs.
Raised my children on herbs. Still use herbs for myself
Herbs and other natural means really can resolve most of our issues. :0)

Sorry this is off topic but don't let the schools feed your kids CRICKETS! see chnl, Riverside Homeastead Life, vid: "WARNING: crickets in your food - Food shortages 2022 - SHTF" Crickets are like Shell Fish because they can cause allergic reactions. Schools letting kids eat crickets, cricket already in many many types of food, we're being lied to about the dangers, cricket inclusion not on food labels and WEF are in on the great cricket push. There is 1,000 schools in Australia with Cricket 'food' in their canteens.
That vet has a BMI so high I would never take his advice
Wow
He an animal Dr. So BMI has nothing to do with his advice or treatment of animals unless you are a conceded fish smelling twat.
You are very judgemental, you dont know what his personal history is that would cause additional problems.
Too bad everyone can’t be as perfect as you, Simon. 🙄
Such a closed minded individual you are Simon. Who’s picture did you use? I like to know what photo shop program is used, i could make my self into anything!!
