When I initially decided to expand my clinical approach to pet health care to include alternative modalities, I chose to learn Chinese medicine and acupuncture. After I finished my education and took it into practice, I had a well established clientele who trusted me. When I suggested that we should take a Chinese medicine approach…

Go Fetch It Yourself
I was sitting in a coffee shop awhile back and a couple came in with their young dog. It didn’t take a moment to realize what a happy dog it was and how excited it was to be with its caretakers. Like a magnet, the dog attracted almost everyone in the shop. One by one,…
Seasonal Cycles and Healthcare
Our physical bodies, as well as our pet’s physical bodies, are linked to many forms of cycles. Every morning when we awaken, we open our eyes, the light comes through the pupil, strikes the retina, sends an electrical impulse to the brain. The brain knows to activate the pineal gland, then the pituitary gland, which…
Let’s Get Real About Dental Health For Pets
In my previous blog, I discussed the primary myth that you have been told about dental disease in dogs and cats. I also discussed what actually causes dental disease in dogs and cats and why dry kibble actually potentiates dental disease instead of preventing the problem. I went into detail the importance of feeding the…
Let’s Get Real About Dental Health For Pets
To use a familiar quote, “I cannot tell a lie.” I did tell my clients (and myself) that feeding dry kibble will keep a dog or cat’s teeth clean. NOT. This is one of the greatest veterinary myths of all time. Today, we might call it fake news. You might be thinking, “Why in the…
Healthcare
Fact: Everything is energetic in nature. You, your pet, your environment. The energy (consciousness) is the implicate or blueprint of form. All objects are an expression of an energetic influence. This is universal law, explained by quantum physics. Imagine that you are looking at a target. The target consists of many concentric circles getting smaller…
Do We Exploit Animals?
I was asked by a lovely lady the other day if it is wrong for us to exploit animals for food, clothing, etc. This has been a question that I have often been asked and one that I have contemplated for many years. Most people who have had the fortunate opportunity to give and receive…
The Dead-end Pathway for Urinary Incontinence
I received an email from one of my holistic vet colleagues today that discussed the topic of urinary incontinence in our pets. It was a very detailed and scientific-oriented discussion about the most likely causes and what is used conventionally to treat the condition by most vets. Then, being a holistic vet, she discussed the…
The God Particle
In Switzerland, there is an enormous underground LEP. LEP stands for large electron positron collider. This giant, circular instrument consisting of magnets in a special alignment, is used to accelerate electrons and positrons (energetic units) near the speed of light. Once they reach the desired speed, they will often collide and have a reaction. For…
Energy Crisis
This morning I was invited to be a guest on a radio program. I had a short visit with the program host and then we had five minutes for a news insert. I sat quietly, waiting to be introduced. I took advantage of the time and turned my focus inward to that empty space between…
