Who doesn’t have at least one quartz crystal, rose quartz pendant or amethyst geode?
Most of us love them for their beauty, while many of us are also aware of the benefits of crystal healing in humans. In fact, crystals have become increasingly sought after due to their natural healing qualities.
A study by the Pew Research Center confirms this surge in popularity, revealing that 42% of all adults in the US believe that “spiritual energy can be located in physical things”.
It’s true that crystals can be used for esoteric purposes, but they are also practical healing tools. Some may say they are gifts from Mother Nature that we can use to enhance our lives and the wellbeing of those we care for.
Crystal healing is not only beneficial for humans.
The principles and healing powers of crystals can also be applied to dogs, cats and other animals.
Crystal healing for pets can help to
- improve their health,
- vitality,
- happiness, and
- quality of life
From a mouse to an elephant and anything in between!
We first became interested in the idea of crystal healing for dogs when our beloved pup, Benjy, experienced intense separation anxiety. He would panic every time he was left home alone.
After searching for a suitable and practical solution for many years, we came across crystal healing and wondered ‘do crystals work on dogs?’.
It turns out the answer is ‘yes’!
We really wanted to combine crystals and collars to make the perfect home remedy for Benjy, which was when Halo Pet Crystal was born.
After he started wearing his amethyst collar, we noticed a huge difference in Benjy’s behaviour. And this is how we knew we had to share our crystal healing dog collars. After all, we know that a happy and healthy pet brings peace of mind to loving pet parents too.
How does Crystal Healing work?
There are many different types of crystals and each has a specific healing ability for the body, mind or soul.
Crystals promote positive energy and remove negative energy in animals, which can then create both physical and emotional benefits.
It’s very important to ensure your pet’s crystal is cleansed of all negative energy and charged with positive energy before use.
At Halo Pet Crystal, we cleanse and recharge all of our crystals before we send them to our furry customers, to ensure they are most effective.
You can find more information about cleansing and charging crystals in our blog ‘How to cleanse crystals before you offer them to your pets’.
Which crystals are best for dogs & cats?
Each type of crystal has a different healing property.
Crystals can heal animals with anxiety and a wide variety of mental and emotional issues. They are especially effective for rescue pets, who tend to be more fearful and stressed.
Certain crystals can also help to calm and relax pets that have trust issues, while others can encourage bonding.
Many pet owners have seen their four-legged companions become more relaxed, friendly and even more receptive to training, simply by using crystals.
Crystal healing for pets: Amethyst
Amethyst is one of the most powerful healing crystals.
It is the crystal of choice for pets with anxiety, meaning that it’s especially helpful for pets who struggle with separation anxiety, travel anxiety, vet visits, grooming, crating or boarding.
Did you know that more than 70% of dogs display anxiety?
Dogs with anxiety may exhibit a range of symptoms, including:
- Excessive barking or howling
- Panting and pacing
- Shivering
- Cowering
- Digging and escaping
- Destroying furniture
- Excessive licking or chewing
- Aversion to food
- Frequent urination
Our amethyst crystal collars create balance, encourage affection, reduce excessive barking and anxiety symptoms.
This beautiful stone is also beneficial for senior pets, because it reduces joint pain and muscle aches.
Crystal healing for pets: Rose Quartz 
Rose quartz is widely known as the crystal that attracts feelings of unconditional love.
It is often the first healing crystal that is introduced to dogs and cats, because it assists in creating an immediate bond between humans and their pets
Our rose quartz collar will also help to heal your rescue pet’s past abuse and trauma, allowing you to make your way into their little heart.
If your dog shows signs of nervousness when humans approach or displays territorial issues, rose quartz is a perfect solution.
Crystal healing for pets: Clear Quartz
Known as the “Master Healer”, clear quartz is used by many dog parents during training, as it increases focus and communication.
Our clear quartz crystal collar is especially perfect for puppies. Your new friend will be more focused during training, thus better able to listen and pick up new skills at a faster rate.
