While gallbladder issues in pets are less common than in humans, herbal and natural treatments may be considered as part of a holistic approach to support gallbladder health. The gallbladder plays a role in storing and releasing bile to aid in digestion. 

Dandelion Leaf and Root: Dandelion has been traditionally used for its potential benefits in supporting liver and gallbladder health. The leaves and roots of the dandelion plant are believed to have diuretic properties, aiding in the elimination of excess fluids and potentially promoting bile flow. 

Peppermint: Peppermint is an herb that may offer digestive support, including potential benefits for the gallbladder. It is thought to help relax the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, including those around the bile duct, potentially facilitating the flow of bile. Peppermint can be offered to pets in the form of fresh leaves or as part of herbal supplements.

Artichoke Leaf: Artichoke leaf extract is another herb that is sometimes considered for its potential to support gallbladder health. It may help stimulate bile production and flow, aiding in the digestion of fats. 

It's crucial to reiterate that suspected gallbladder issues in pets warrant professional veterinary evaluation. Regular check-ups and monitoring are essential to assess the effectiveness of herbal treatments and make necessary adjustments to support the pet's well-being.
