Be sure to watch all our webinars on puppies and behavior and energy approaches.

Super congratulations for starting to do a home exam!!
Be sure to note in his journal when you first noted the blood on the tennis balls. For now, maybe find a small ball, not fuzzy as that can sometimes irritate.
Because you have an appointment shortly, and because some essential oils can...
Good for you to be feeding some fresh, minimizing vaccines and thinking about different ways to approach health. So glad you have joined Holistic Actions so you can be empowered and comfortable to rarely have to rush to the vet who is so far away. I will address a few of your concerns, and Dr...
Jill,
I think you were asking what to do if you suspect she has a UTI? What symptoms is she showing? How is her BEAM?
Because this has been a chronic problem involving the vulva, it would really be important to have a homeopathic, chiropractic or chinese medicine veterinarian prescribing for...
Jill, It will be important to train her to LOVE having you clean her vulva area. Maybe you can work with an animal communicator. Many of our behavior speakers have spoken about how to get dogs to love your treatments, by a very slow approach. Maybe one approach (and I am not trained in...
Marilyn Mele is a long time gentle trainer I respect and she has a guide on housetraining.
Even the email with the attachment gets you off to a great start.

If you would like to discuss how easy it can be to make your own, we can do that on your 15 min call. If you cook at all for people in your home, that is.

fountains are great, though really healthy cats rarely drink water. Some do like to play in the fountains, though.
In your journal, do make a note of how often each cat drinks and for how long. Increased thirst, especially in cats, is one of those early warning signs.
Cats eating dry kibble...
Great questions - please share if you try fluent pet or talking dog buttons.
when a dog is healthy, they do not need wondercide or any other topical - they just do not attract fleas. They will also be much more resistant to any tick diseases. Keep working on building up health and vitality. You...
Dear Kai,
As Dr. Jeff said, you have been doing exactly what is needed.
While we all want to be healthy and have our companions be healthy and not in pain, there is no one right answer. For some dogs, the steps you have taken would have been enough to balance the vitality so all symptoms would...
18 years old is great! You have already made great improvements to Ruta's diet, and if I read correctly, he is recovering emotionally from the passing of his friend.
Have you take the 101 course yet? Lesson 2 gives you a wonderful learning about nutrition. Also, go to the library and click on...
Your puppy is so lucky to have you aiming towards balance and vitality rather than merely stopping symptoms.
From Acu-Dog by Zidonas and Snow (good book with pictures to own, along with FourPaws Five Directions by Schwartz) say Pericardium 6 (Pe6) can help. It is on the back of the front leg...
After reading Jeff's post I realized that even though I, too, cannot purr - I can hummmmmmmmm. And that is great too.
Selina, thanks so much for sharing that.
AnnaH,
We would love to hear if you have tried some of the wonderful above suggestions. You are doing so much already so I know Jinx loves you and is grateful.
I was equally frustrated when watching a tiny dog in my house for a week - sometimes I knew what she wanted when pawing at my...
Sheri,
First, I would not be treating Giardia or coccidia in my dog or cat. I would use conventional (and very safe) drugs for roundworms, hooks and whips along with building vitality and resistance. Because you did not say, I am assuming this is a young puppy? Great suggestions by Jeff and...
To help your fears, you could do a parvo and distemper titer rather than re-vaccinate. rarely do I see older animals develop viral diseases yet seem to see more chronic illnesses with frequent vaccinated animals.
For the concern about lepto - it is a very ineffective vaccine (bacterial) - read...
