I have personally dealt with cushings disease, diabetes, blindness, deafness, IBD, hypertension, arthritis, pain, discomfort, antibiotic treatments which were as disabling as they were helpful, incontinence, emotional issues (loss of confidence, fear of noises), inability to stand or walk, from my canine companions. I have found that alternative treatments and medicine definitely have their place for every living creature. In order to understand where to start, no matter what ailment, this Book will lead you in the right direction. I have read many holistic/alternative health care books and this Book is laid out with such an easy to read/comprehension fashion, and yet contains so much helpful information.
Ms. Levin's Books not only explain the disease and treatment, but give an excellent explanation of how these things come about; afterall, Prevention is the key. She also gives multiple choices of things which can be done to assist you. Her Books are so comprehensive, you can clearly see that it is a Labor of Love.
I have utilized homeopathic medicines, herbs, glandulars, supplements, traditional medicine, and TTouch. It is difficult for our western style of thinking to accept that which we cannot explain. There is so much greatness everywhere which cannot be explained. If you can remain "open" and have "faith" then you can watch little miracles happen when utilizing other modalities of therapy, alternative medicines and lifestyle changes for your pets; which are all reviewed in her Book. Sure, western medicine definitely has its place, we have so much to be grateful for. I feel that there is a good place to be with kindness and appreciation of all things. One brief personal experience; our Lab, who could no longer stand up or walk for weeks, miraculously stood up and walked after one session of TTouch, which this Book touched on briefly; but, again, choices you make can make a difference.
This Book is what a good future holds for how we treat our companion animals. It is the reference point for where we start to understand and change our standards of treatment of a whole host of ailments. Bravo, Ms. Levin. May life allow you to continue with your grand contribution to all.
