Natural Healthcare for Pets
Richard Allport Vet MF Hom MRCVS
'Like their owners, pets can suffer physically and emotionally from the effects of modern life. Many pet foods, for example, contain potentially harmful additives and preservatives. The increasing business of our own lifestyles also effects those of our pets - the time we have to lavish on them is constantly being eroded by other demands. "Natural Healthcare for Pets" provides a practical solution. It points out what aspects of your pet's lifestyle may contribute to poor physical or mental health and discusses simple ways to introduce your pet to a more natural way of being. Many complementary therapies, such as acupuncture, aroma therapy and massage, are effective and safe methods to maintain or restore your pet's health. A section on common pet ailments includes an introduction to animal disease, as well as specific conditions of the respiratory, cardiovascular, endocrine, and musculoskeletal systems. From aggression to infectious disease, each illness accompanies a safe, natural remedy to relieve symptoms and promote healing '
