Dog allergies seem to be on the increase. They itch, they scratch in the middle of the night, keeping you awake. Their skin gets eruptions that may or may not weep. They sneeze. They get diarrhoea. You have to be careful about foods. Veterinary care becomes expensive. All very inconvenient for your dog. But also for you.
Why should there be such an increase in dog allergies?
There really is only one reason.
And that is because their immune system is badly compromised. And this is caused by two things that you can start to address right away.
If you are feeding your dog a commercial pet food, that is one of the main reasons s/he has allergies. Most commercial pet foods, including most of the big names, are nutrient poor and chemically high. What do I mean by that?
Commercial pet food manufacturers are primarily chasing a fat profit. As there are no laws (at least no laws which work) in any country that I know of, anything goes.
The meat is of poor quality - hooves, dead and diseased animals, high fat content, etc. Then it’s padded out with a cheap filler such as sugar, melamine, corn, etc with no regard for the suitability of the food to the animal.
Isolated and synthetic ‘nutrients’ are added to try to redress the low quality. These nutrients are often impossible to digest and can cause harm later on.
Then preservatives and colours are added. Even if the packet claims to have no preservatives, all that means is that the pet food manufacturer didn’t add the preservative. But it could have been added at the rendering plant, where the ‘meat’ was purchased.
These preservatives are highly toxic and would never be permitted in human food. Preservatives such as ethoxyquin.
Is it any wonder that dog allergies abound now?
The other reason for their high incidence is that they are given so many vaccines, now. Vaccines have the opposite effect that many think - it knocks the immune system for six.
So if you can start feeding your dog real food, preferably raw, you’ll go a long way to cure his allergies.
And if you take him to an holistic vet who uses homeopathy, they will be able to undo some of the vaccine damage. Enough, perhaps, to improve his immune system to the point where he doesn’t have any allergies at all.
Once you know the cause of dog allergies, it’s easy to take measure to correct them.Dog Allergies and How to Treat Them in Two Easy Steps

The Secret to Dog Potty Training in One Easy Step
One of the biggest problems people have with the dog potty training of indoor puppies is thinking too much about what it means to them (ie the mess to be cleared up) and not enough about where the puppy is coming from.
Obviously, this is understandable. But by focussing on this aspect, you tend to miss the main contributing factor.
If you are doing all the right things such as:
but still your puppy seems a bit slow to grasp the idea, you may be unconsciously contributing to this.
So lets have a look at what most people do with a puppy when they first bring him home. The puppy is confined to a small area, often the bathroom or laundry, particularly at night, on his own.
Now lets take a look at the wild dog’s family, and so where your new puppy comes from. You can immediately see that they always remain as a family unit. Wild dogs never put a puppy in isolation, or solitary confinement, which is what this amounts to.
Dogs are pack animals. They are gregarious by nature. Isolating a youngster can cause enormous emotional trauma, which does nothing to help in your efforts at dog potty training or your future relationship and trust.
Couple that with the recent trauma he has already suffered of being separated from his mother, often at too early an age, as well as his siblings. If you have bought your puppy from a pet shop, this will have happened. Young puppies are more appealing to us, so tend to be taken from their mothers much too early. But their mothers play a key role in dogs development.
A traumatised puppy will become more and more concerned (whether or not he shows it - some internalise their emotions just as some humans do), becoming more and more anxious.
And so the potty training goes out the window - he is far more concerned about being accepted by his new family. How can he make you like him better?
And you become more and more frustrated and so irritable towards your puppy. It’s an endless spiral. It’s up to you to put an end to it.
Understand your puppy’s needs and everything will start slipping easily into place.
By keeping your puppy with you at all times, he will become confident and balanced and able to learn what you gently try to teach him. You take over his mother’s teaching and bonding role.
One way to avoid the mess and keep your puppy close by, is to section off a part of the room you are in (including your bedroom), to confine him and the mess. Put lots of newspaper or wee pads down. You might have an old toddler mobile play unit, that you can move around the house with you. Or buy a second-hand one.
You’ll find that your dog potty training will progress much more easily, because you’re not creating any separation anxiety. Not only that, but your puppy will be much easier to train, because you have created a close bond with him. He trusts you. You have proved to him you are his family. You have understood his basic needs.
Obviously, this is understandable. But by focussing on this aspect, you tend to miss the main contributing factor.
If you are doing all the right things such as:
- taking the puppy outside periodically
- making a great fuss when he does perform outside
- and ignoring the ‘bad’ performances inside
but still your puppy seems a bit slow to grasp the idea, you may be unconsciously contributing to this.

Flea Control is Easy Once You Know the Cause
Flea control doesn’t have to be chemical laden to be effective. But let’s put that aside for the moment and focus on the cause.
Fleas are rarely a problem for people without pets. But they can become a nightmare for people with pets. So the most likely cause of your flea control problem comes from your pet. Possibly your cat, but more likely your dog, as cats take their body hygiene more seriously.
Wild animals aren’t infested with fleas as their domestic cousins are. At least not healthy wild animals. So what is it about domestic dogs that attracts fleas?
Let’s look at the skin. This is the least important organ of the body. So when the dog has a problem, such as a high toxic load, the easiest way for the body to get rid of the toxins is through the skin.
This is likely to produce unsightly eruptions, but it will also alter the skin pH.
The one thing that dogs do every day is to eat. You may have heard the old saying ‘you are what you eat’. Dogs are too. Good food in results in good health. Poor food in results in poor health. Garbage in - garbage out.
Most commercial dog food consists of poor quality meat (more likely meat by-products), lots of cheap filler, some isolated and synthetic nutrients and very toxic preservatives, despite what the label may say.
None of this is in your dog’s long term health interest, but the worst part is the toxic preservatives. To try to get rid of these, your dog will develop a skin eruption which is just heaven to fleas, so they will quickly breed in such lush conditions.
Couple that with the poor nutritional content, and your dog’s skin pH is all wrong.
If you feed your dog raw meat and bones, this is very acid. And this is just right for dogs. It’s how they evolved. Raw meat, with no preservatives, means your dog will be getting the natural nutrition in keeping with his evolutionary history.
Suddenly the environment has changed. There are no skin eruptions. Fleas don’t like it as much. You may see the odd flea, but the proliferation can no longer happen.
Feeding your dog on raw meat and bones will have other benefits too, besides controlling fleas.
Holistic vets have found that when dogs are fed raw meat and bones, chronic disease just melts away. But returns with a return to commercial pet food.
Think of the whole picture rather than zoning in on just the flea control. Then everyone is a winner.

Feeding your dog on raw meat and bones will have other benefits too, besides controlling fleas.
- bones help keep the gums healthy
- bones help clean the teeth
- bones provide essential calcium in the way dogs need
- crunching up on a bone keeps your dog emotionally happy
- raw meat provides nutrients in a natural and balanced form
- raw meat is easily and quickly digested
- raw meat makes evacuation easy
- raw meat creates a natural skin pH to dogs
Holistic vets have found that when dogs are fed raw meat and bones, chronic disease just melts away. But returns with a return to commercial pet food.

Some Dog Health Problems are Easy to Resolve
Puppies are generally a delight to have around. As long as you can cope with the chewing up of garments and expensive items, the huge energy and the occasional soiling as they become potty trained.
But that’s a small price to pay for the enthusiasm for life they have, for the fun that infectiously oozes from them.
You love him. He loves you. All is well with the world.
Until he falls sick.
Then your world crashes.
The first thing that springs to mind is what caused it? Was it something you did or didn’t do? Is it your fault? Were you too vigilant or not vigilant enough? Did you overprotect him or did you let him roam free too much?
Well, chances are that it was your fault.
But only by virtue of the fact you were doing as you were told, probably because you thought someone else knew better than you. Perhaps if you had listened to that little inner voice you sometimes hear, but mostly ignore, which told you different, things may not be this bad.
It’s never too late to learn.
And animals have an amazing way of ensuring you do indeed learn, mostly from your mistakes.
So now your puppy has grown up and has a few dog health problems.
The first possible cause to consider it what he is doing every day.
Eating!
What are you feeding him?
Commercial dog food, as most holistic veterinarians have found, is the route cause of many, if not most, dog health problems.
Depending on the country, brand and era or manufacture, most commercial dog food looks something like this:
Sounds pretty unhealthy doesn’t it? Even one of those ingredients may be contributing to your dog health problem, but what if he was eating all four?
Although there are as many causes for dog health problems as there are dogs, by far the most common is the food you are feeding him.
By virtue of its daily consumption, healthy dog food, similar to the food his wild cousins eat, will go a long way to making his immune system strong, strong enough to fend off most dog health problems for years.
If you’re worried about the expense, don’t be. Feeding real food to your dog is as cheap as feeding commercial dog food. It may take a little more time, especially in the early stages as you are finding your feet, but just consider the fortune you save on veterinarian bills! They don’t come cheap by any means.

- toxic preservatives not permitted in human food

Dog Food for Diabetes Has the Potential to Cure
It’s a heart rendering time if your dog has been diagnosed with diabetes. Quite apart from the added burden of the extra veterinary costs, which you may be able to ill afford, what about the cost to your dog?
Is the quality of his life going to deteriorate? How is he going to cope with regular injections of insulin, if he needs them? Most dogs hate drugs and medication and will often fight you when you try to dose them.
Are you going to have trouble with this? Are you going to get hurt, as well as your dog and your wallet?
You might be asking yourself if you could have prevented this from happening, although the vet probably told you that its a common occurrence these days.
Yes, it is common these days.
And yes, you probably could have prevented it.
While doctors and veterinarians have been trained to match particular medication with a disease, homeopaths have been trained to look for causes.
So while the medication may help to stabilise your dog’s diabetes, it’s unlikely to cure it. But if you can get to the cause, and address that, you may well be able to cure your dog’s diabetes.
Your journey to success has already started with your search for dog food for diabetes.
One of the main causes of diabetes in dogs is the food you feed him. Most commercial dog food (included that promoted by most vets) is made up of about 30% low grade meat by-products (from rendering plants which take in slaughter house waste, euthanised animals, road kill, etc), about 65% filler (which can vary from a high fat content, to melamine from China, to a cheap food because of a world glut), and the balance being synthetic nutrients (which are difficult if not impossible to digest), toxic preservatives (mostly not considered fit for human consumption), appetite stimulants and artificial colour.
Some commercial dog food has better quality of meat, beyond by-products. But it still contains cheap filler and toxic preservatives, despite the claim on the packet.
As there has been a world glut of sugar, this is often used as a filler. Do you think sugar is a suitable dog food for diabetes?
Do you think any of the above constitutes suitable dog food for diabetes or any other health condition? Does it sound like suitable dog food, period?
Dogs evolved over many millions of year, as an omnivore, but at the carnivore end. This means dogs can survive on a vegetarian diet, but it isn’t normal. They are natural hunters. And while they do scavenge, so can eat carrion, their main diet is fresh, raw meat.
Holistic veterinarians have discovered that chronic disease normally melts away when dogs are fed on a diet of fresh, raw meat and bones.
By providing quality dog food for diabetes, based on the dogs evolution, the potential is there for a complete cure.
Not only is this more beneficial for your dog’s health, it is a great deal lighter on your wallet. Quite apart from the high veterinary costs, feeding raw food is cheaper than feeding commercial dog food.
And you’re a lot safer too, not running the risk of getting bitten.
Dog food for diabetes, or any other condition, needs to be based on what dogs eat in the wild.
Is the quality of his life going to deteriorate? How is he going to cope with regular injections of insulin, if he needs them? Most dogs hate drugs and medication and will often fight you when you try to dose them.

How Much Does Dog Diabetes Cost?
If your dog has diabetes, you may be concerned, not only with how your dog feels, but also with how much treating dog diabetes costs.
The one thing I can assure you, is if you stay with mainstream veterinary care, it is likely to cost you several arms and legs.
However, holistic veterinary care is not only far less expensive, it is also far more effective. Of course, this is my view, as a holistic practitioner, and the view of all other holistic practitioners, as we are a bit biased.
But holistic practitioners are always taught to look for the cause of any ailment. This is less often considered in mainstream veterinary care, who are taught more about which drugs to use with each condition.
You may have heard of the expression ‘you are what you eat’. In other words, what you eat has a direct impact on your health.
Holistic veterinarians have found that when dogs are fed according to natural laws, their health improves almost beyond belief. Which implies that the majority of food that dogs are fed, is actually making them unhealthy.
Remove the cause and the problem disappears.
So how much does dog diabetes cost? It may not cost you anything if all it takes to cure it, is a switch to a natural diet.
Contrary to popular belief, feeding a dog naturally tends to cost less that feeding a commercial dog food.
If your dog has had diabetes a long time and has been given medical drugs, you’ll be well aware of the cost of this, not only in monetary value, but also in the welfare of your dog.
Even at this late stage, switching to holistic care is likely to bring down the cost, although the treatment may be more complicated.
Holistic practitioners find that treating uncomplicated cases of disease much easier than when drugs have complicated it, as the drugs have changed things and this has to be addressed.
So more advanced stages of dog diabetes may cost you more.
But be assured, that if you find a good holistic animal practitioner, your dog diabetes cost will be minimal, your dog will be happier, and you’ll be at the exciting start of a more natural approach to life and health.
I’m always amazed at how much we can learn from animals, if only we would listen.
