Excerpt
From the Foreward:
"I am still a great believer in mainstream veterinary medicine. But along with other veterinarians worldwide, I have learned that although modern medicine offers many miracles, it can't do everything. I have found from years of experience that dogs and cats don't always need the strongest drugs or the most invasive surgery. Even when they do need mainstream help, treatments such as nutritional supplements, massage, and perhaps even energy therapies can provide them with the extra fuel they need to get well and stay well.
You may be told that these remedies are not scientifically proven. This is usually true. And you may be told not to bother with them because they cannot possibly work. This is not true. Not every remedy in this book will work for every pet. Some of these remedies I use every week, and some I have never tried. The point is that pets--and their owners--are individuals, not bound to live by statistics. I say give these remedies a try. In many cases, they could make a world of difference."
Susan G. Wynn, DVM.
