🜊 BREATHABLE PROTECTIVE BARRIER
Dracorium creates a natural skin-like film over exposed or sensitive skin, shielding it from environmental stress while allowing airflow. Assists areas prone to hot spots or insect attacks and supports hygiene and comfort for up to 48 hours.
🜊 CLEANSER, PLASTER, GLUE & SEALANT IN ONE
Combining botanical latex with film-forming properties, this single-ingredient solution acts as a cleanser, coating, glue and natural sealant for exposed or irritated skin areas.
🜊 NATURALLY DISCOURAGES LICKING & NIBBLING
The plant-derived latex has a distinct bitter taste that helps reduce your dog’s urge to lick, nibble, or chew on the treated area — allowing skin to remain undisturbed.
🜊 SOOTHING
Rich in natural skin-calming compounds, Dracorium comforts dogs with exposed skin, hot spots and environmental stress. Its soothing properties make it ideal for use on exposed areas, helping your pet stay relaxed and less inclined to lick, scratch, or nibble.
🜊 TRADITIONAL VETERINARY USE
Sourced from Croton lechleri trees in the Peruvian Amazon, this latex has a long history in traditional veterinary and herbal applications for maintaining skin integrity and cleanliness.
🜊 100% ORGANIC SINGLE-INGREDIENT FORMULA
Free from preservatives, synthetics, or fillers — Dracorium is made from pure botanical latex, bottled using clean-fill, UV-sterilised processes for purity and safety.
Sustainable Harvesting of Dragons Blood
At The Animal Alchemist, we are dedicated to sourcing our ingredients in a manner that respects and preserves the natural environment. Our wound latex is harvested using traditional, sustainable methods that have been practised by Amazonian communities for thousands of years.
Licensed and Regulated Harvesting
We work exclusively with licensed exporters in Peru who operate under the strict regulations of SERFOR (Servicio Nacional Forestal y de Fauna Silvestre). SERFOR ensures that all harvesting activities are conducted sustainably and ethically, safeguarding the future of these invaluable natural resources.
Traditional Harvesting Methods
The Dragons Blood latex in all our products is harvested using ancient techniques that have been passed down through generations. The process involves making a small, controlled incision in the outer bark of the tree. This method, known as leaching, allows the latex to be collected without causing significant harm to the tree. Over time, the trees naturally heal from these incisions, often bearing multiple scars that tell the story of their resilience and the careful stewardship of the harvesters.
Commitment to Deforestation Awareness
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond our harvesting methods. We are acutely aware of the global issue of deforestation and its impact on ecosystems, biodiversity, and indigenous communities.
Supporting Reforestation Efforts
To counteract deforestation, we actively support reforestation initiatives in the Amazon. For every batch of Dragons Blood latex harvested, we contribute to 'Amazon Conservation' who plant new trees and actively protect the land, ensuring the continued health and growth of the forest.
Transparency and Accountability
Transparency is at the heart of our operations. We maintain open communication with our suppliers and regularly audit our supply chain to ensure compliance with our sustainability standards. Our customers can trust that every product they purchase from us is sourced responsibly and contributes to the well-being of the planet.
Please watch our how-to-use video above for a detailed demonstration of the application techniques.
Method One
1. Shake the bottle well, then apply 1-2 drops directly to the skin exposure and dab.
2. Prevent any licking until the latex has dried and the skin has settled.
Method Two
1. Shake the bottle well, then Dispense 6 drops of Dracorium into the palm of a cupped hand.
2. Using your index and middle finger in a circular motion, form a dense paste.
3. Using the spatula provided, scrape all the latex from your palm so it collects on the flat of the utensil.
4. Transfer the latex to the tip of your index finger.
5. Apply by dabbing or wiping the exposure and allow to dry into a solid plaster.
*In the unlikely event of your dog persisting in licking it off, it is recommended that you utilise a cone overnight. This product is safe if accidentally licked off in the amounts outlined in these instructions.
