Am looking for a recommendation for a friend whose cat is not well, BEAM off. Alllopathic vet says it is conjunctivitis and sinus. Does anyone have a recommendation for a homeopathic vet in Santa Monica, CA or the vicinity? Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you for sharing the story about Maerzen and her precious pups. Your picture made me smile. I appreciate the suggestion of “97 Ways to Create Great Puppies” - free e-book on the Avidog website and have taken advantage of the e-book. Looking forward to your future posts.

Interesting article by Dr. Christina. Not surprisingly, the opinions were all over the map. Price for NAD four times a year would be prohibitive. Performed by a highly trained, experienced, gentle and caring technician, a NAD is useful. Caveat; Small dogs have small mouths which can be...

I send out an annual Xmas card with a pic of my Shih Tzu girls. Upon receipt, a friend called me and demanded to know what was wrong with my 11-year old Joli. I responded 'nothing'. My friend told me that she had pulled out last years photo and that her face was thinner and something was wrong...

The practice admin asked another vet because Dr. Lazarus was not in the office. She was told 'No', partial spays have never been performed at Rippowam. On the Parsemus Foundation site, he is listed only as doing vasectomy. Maybe Dr. Lazarus did partial spays while training in South Africa.

Thanks for you input, Dr. Jeff and Dr. Sara. I have been unable to find any studies in toy dogs. Beautiful, big Bermese are at the other end of the size spectrum and may be subject to a difference in prevalence and conditions. I was unaware that I needed to monitor for mammary tumors. Still...

I'm still open to persuasion. It was actually your comments during Empower Hour that shifted me to full spay. I realize that you have a Neutering class coming up but timing might be off for my decision. Personally, would you give your girls a partial or full spay and why? I understand if you...

Thanks so much for your response, Dr. Sara. I do want them to have a full spay. I have two older Tzu girls; the 11 year old had a full spay at six months and the eight year old had the partial spay at six months. This time I waited because that seems to be the prevailing opinion. They are...

I have two 18-month old Shih Tzu that will have a full spay next month. Has anyone had experience with Dr. John Robb doing abdominal surgery on their dog? I would appreciate the sharing of any insight or comments.
