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…)

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…)

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!”

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…)

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:

My original plan was to write about vaccines for adult dogs but because this is the last day of 2009, I felt like writing about something more fun. 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

Cat Lovers , click here.
In the previous blog, you learned about the importance of choosing a healthy puppy and avoiding puppy mills.
Now that you have chosen well, you may be wondering what is the best way to keep your best friend healthy. One may think that vaccines or “the shots” as many call them, would be the next step. However, it is not that simple.
The main concerns
1. Vaccines contain dangerous carcinogens and disease causing chemicals such as mercury and formaldehyde. (more…)

I never realized, how many people talk about their vet bills on Twitter.
While I sometimes joke that vets are still cheaper than most kitchen or bathroom reno’s or lawyer visits, vet bills can get out of control and seem never ending..
If you have ever complained about the cost of vet care, keep on reading, it may save you thousands of dollars.
In next few weeks and months, I would like to share with you a simple to follow plan of keeping your animal friends healthy and happy.
