(Please note: Nothing on this website is intended to replace veterinary care. If your pet is experiencing any health problem, please seek a vet’s advice and treatment. Be sure to do your homework, however, before permitting your pet to be subjected to any surgical procedure or medication. The purpose of this information is to get you thinking, asking questions, and NOT taking things lying down! Educate yourself, learn all you can, and make the best choices YOU can possibly make for your furbabies!)

Ashlee (and Irish, in his own right) started me down the road to holistic pet care. I started learning nearly from the start that conventional medicine is not always what it’s cracked up and touted to be. A BIG piece of the puzzle is far too often missing from the care our pets receive, and I became determined to find out what that piece was. It turned out to be much more than one simple piece but a whole series of pieces that fit together in an intricate pattern. Over-vaccination, poor diet, toxic chemicals in our yards and homes, and overuse of potentially toxic medications. Add that to poor genetics in some cases, and you have a recipe for complete disaster!

 

It has been a long and often exceedingly difficult road to walk, but I would not have altered my path in any way to make it less painful or emotional for me. I have learned far too much from each of my furbabies to want to change how things have gone. I hope I can help others along that same road, perhaps make the travel a bit easier, the rocky spots a little shorter. In the end, the difficulties can only make things better and healthier for future furbabies if we choose to learn from the past and the present ones who share our lives.

 

 

 

DRUG & VACCINE PACKAGE INSERTS – USA

I have accrued a whole bunch of package inserts for vaccinations and medications used in the US (and possibly other countries). I just don’t have enough available website space to post them all here for easy access. If you are looking for something in particular, don’t hesitate to email me. If I have it on file, I’m happy to email it right to you.
