How does Homepathic Medicine heal pet's naturally?

As guardians of our animal companions we all, at one time in our life experienced the feeling of
helplessness in making a decision to seek medicial advice to help our animal companions feel better.
Since the only communication that is given to us is the symptoms we see it is then our duty to find help for them based on that since our animal companion's can not talk. What is not really understood or even explained to us by the medical profession is that symptoms are simply the body's way of returning to a state balance. Suppressing symptoms with medicine or surgery may drive a disease deeper, resulting in a different and often more serious set of symptoms to crop up.
Homepathic is a natural holistic system for healing it works by eliminating imbalance in a pets body.
The entire patient is treated not just the injury or sickness. Homepathic medicine is defined as absense of symptoms, well being & vitality. This creates three possible outcomes of treatment:
a) suppression- gets rid of symptoms
b) palliation -    alleviate sysmptoms
c) cure         -    body elimates whole diesase not just symptoms-optimal health.
The benefits of  this alternative care for pets is that it is safe and effective.It is benefiicial in
supporting the healing process naturally. With chronic conditions when used along changing the diet and lifestyle it helps the body to create optimal health. As with any severe & chronic disease should be treated under the guidance of a homepathically-trained veterianarian.
As guardians of our animal companions it is our duty to seek and learn all that we can. We must be their voices to question what is being injected into them by the veternarian and/or to ask is there an alternative medical treatment for the condition. As we must learn to speak for them, we also learn to become true Guardian Leaders and not just followers.

Is your pet food toxic?

Do you know what's really in your pet's food?
If we are the guardians of our animal companions, we owe them the gift of a
healthy long life.  The expression "We are what we eat"   also applies to keeping our pets healthy with the food we give them.
It's important to discover why most commerical pet food is unhealthy and what you
can do to avoid toxic pet food. Why are most commercial pet food unhealthy for our animal companions?
Having did research on the subject matter, I was shocked, appauled and in total disbelief of what is really in most commercial pet foods.That cheap cat/dog food may not be the healthiest pet food brand you can buy.
The pet industry has no set standards, although the FDA has a subdepartment called the Center for Veterinary Medicine which regulates animal drugs, medicated feeds(livestock) and food additives, there is no premarket approval requirement for pet foods. Animals that are ill, diseased ridden, unwanted animal parts often containing high levels of hormones, antibiotics are used and/or are labeled as meat and bone meal.  This is what You are feeding your beloved pet.  You are basically setting up the foundation for disease in that animal you LOVE .
While everyone wants his dog/cat to eat healthy, there are many commercial pet foods that contain questionable ingredients. The internet is a great tool to gain knowledge about pet food. You might want to try googling the search word "animal-by-products"," meat-by-products", "meat meal" or "meat and bone meal" to start the learning process.
The next time you shop for your pet's food you might come across the word "Holistic Pet Food".
You might wonder is holistic pet food the healthier?
Yes! The word wholistic means looking at the effect of the food we eat. Holistic pet food is designed with the highest quality ingredients.
Look for and choose quality, holistic pet foods that
* do not contain grains likes corn and wheat which are hard to digest
* do not contain animal by products
* do not contain synthetic preservatives including BHA and BHT
* do not contain synthetic FD&C coloring
There is another option that has been around way before commerical pet food was introduced  in 1890 in England and took off in the 1900's in the United States that is feeding your animal companion raw meat.
they trust you to take care of them and in return give you unconditional LOVE
 A raw meat diet supplemented with grains, vegetables and fruits, taurine, certain enzymes, and essential fatty acids will closely approximate the food your pet would get in the wild.  The advantages of a raw, frozen pet food diet for your animal companions is the possiblity of amazing health results.
