Ask a Vet Q&A Session 4/26/2024
Drs. Jeff Feinman and Christina Chambreau join forces to tackle pet guardian questions.
Here are some key take aways:
Diet and Nutrition
- Feed a species-appropriate fresh, whole food diet for optimal health
- Cooked or raw is fine, focus is unprocessed and fresh ingredients
- Tailor the diet to the animal’s needs – more probiotics, digestive enzymes, etc. for gut issues
- For cancer, feed whatever the animal wants, try a ketogenic diet
- For dental issues, feed large chunks/bones to naturally express glands and clean the teeth
Parasites
- Parasites indicate an underlying vital force imbalance
- Focus on rebalancing energy using modalities like Reiki, supplements, diet
- Can use medications short-term while addressing root cause
Lyme Disease
- Positive test indicates exposure, not necessarily infection
- No need to treat if no symptoms present
- Can use herbs and energy work to support immune system
Holistic Approaches
- Work with a holistic vet for chronic or older animals
- Learn modalities like Reiki, Ttouch, acupressure
- Use flower essences, herbs, homeopathy as appropriate
- Track symptoms over time in a journal
- Avoid suppressing symptoms without addressing root cause
Heartworm Prevention
- Give prevention monthly in high risk areas
- Can test twice yearly instead of giving prevention
- Healthy immune system can kill migrating larvae
- Detox with energy work like Reiki rather than drugs/herbs

Intention and Energy For Healing Pets: Interspecies Communication
Have you ever considered the profound impact of where you direct your attention?
The saying “where attention goes, energy flows” underscores the power of our focus in shaping our reality. And it is that simple!
Before attention can manifest its transformative energy, it must be guided by intention.
Intention provides clarity and purpose to our actions and thoughts.
When we set a clear intention, we create a pathway for our attention to follow, channeling our energy towards a specific goal or area of our lives.
As our energy becomes concentrated in that direction, we witness growth and transformation, whether it’s within our bodies or in various aspects of our lives.
Intention –> Attention –> Energy –> Growth
What intention will you set today not only for yourself but also for your cherished furry companions?
Enjoy this enriching webinar experience with Ana Maria Vasquez, a multi-sensory animal & nature intuitive, author, and shamanic practitioner.
Ana Maria possesses a unique talent for translating profound animal wisdom into practical insights, guiding us to align with spiritual principles for transformative living.
Discover the depth of your connection with animals and explore how their messages can enhance your daily life.
As an expert in deciphering the energy behind animal behavior and symptoms, Ana Maria reveals how these insights reflect our own energetic patterns. By delving into this exploration, you’ll gain tools to shift not only your animal’s symptoms but also your own energetic blocks.
