Synopsis
Sore paws and eyes, fleas, upset tummies, rheumatic aches, eczema, smelly kennels and blankets, puppies missing their mothers, digging, chewing and flatulence are all familiar problems to pet owners, who collectively spend millions of pounds each year on ready-made pills and treatments. Yet often pets can be cured in a simple, effective and almost cost-free way by using remedies that have been folk knowledge for centuries. The author collects together hundreds of health tips from around the country using ingredients anyone can find in their kitchen cupboards, or growing in fields and gardens. Each cure listed in the book is entirely natural, kind and safe and is intended as an alternative to expensive, over-the-counter preparations for everyday ailments.
