Two veterinarians write on the topic of raw diet, is it safe or not?

Wednesday, January 4th, 2012

I have just come across the response of a Victoria veterinarian, Dr. Chris Collis in regard to the article “This raw deal is a good one from Dec. 10 of  Times Colonist ,(posted at the end of this blog)  and feel obligated to respond.

I too am a veterinarian licensed and practicing in British Columbia, with 24 years of clinical experience. In the early days, I also believed what I was taught by processed pet food companies that their food was the best.

However, as years progressed, I observed an alarming trend where feeding processed food and even special diets was not (more…)

Making the best treatment decision for your pet.

Does it happen to you that each month or week has a certain theme? It seems that the Universe decides what the lesson should be and then serves us ample opportunities to learn and grow.

This week, the lesson is about following our heart.

Some of you may know that in addition to teaching about disease and cancer prevention, doing webinars and developing innovative supplements and natural care products; I still like to consult with a handful of clients to keep in touch with medicine and healing.

One of the common situations I see is that my new or even established clients who live out side of Vancouver need to use the services of my conventional colleagues.  

I believe that 99% of vets have the intention of helping their patients, however even then the recommendations given can arise from a personal point of view.

Today, I would like to share a story with you that I hope will encourage you to go with your heart whenever you (more…)

The Mystery of Health and Disease

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Recently  I was asked to write an article for The Pet Connections magazine.  First,  I was thrilled because it was a great opportunity to reach a large number of like-minded people you and hopefully make a difference in the lives of the animals you live with.

Then I began to feel nervous because there is so much to talk about and only a few pages available. I asked myself, what (more…)

Your Secret Key to Preventing Cancer

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2011

Today,  I have decided to write on the topic of the big C word – Cancer.   For years,  we  have been hearing in the news that we have to “fight cancer” or “say no to cancer.”

The  statistics show  clearly that cancer “fights back”  at  an ever increasing rate and intensity.  It  appears that no matter how many times we  say “ No” to cancer;  cancer’s  reply is often “Screw  you!”

Do YOU feel like being free? A message from your animal friend.

Saturday, April 3rd, 2010

Have you every thought; what would your dog or cat want you to do if they could speak?

What would it be? Would you work 12 hour days or spend hours in traffic, watching TV or shopping for things that you don’t need?

I invite you to close your eyes and imagine  what would your next  hour, next day or month look  like. Where are you, what are you doing, who are you with? (more…)

What is coming in 2010 ?

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

I  sense that this  year will be the year of change.

First, I am happy to inform you that  I have no more  fear of loosing my veterinary license. This concern is very common among holistic practitioners,  simply because the licensing bodies often recognize conventional medicine only.

I love the newly found freedom because it gives me an opportunity to share anything important with you, no matter what the opinion of  the less open minded conventional circles is.

This year,  I will be paying more attention to the  intuitive part of healing, where the answers come with ease and clarity.  I would like to teach you how  to tap into your intuition,  inner knowledge and  healing energy that resides in all of us.

Here are my plans:

In the previous two blogs, I wrote about avoiding puppy mills and catteries and how to make sure that we do not over-vaccinate our animal friends.  Your dogs happiness =  health =  big savings  on vet bills

Sully, Brady and Skai
