This past Saturday I attended the Healthy Dog Expo in Albany, NY. It was held at the Desmond Hotel and was a gathering of about 200 like-minded people. The panel of speakers was Suzanne Clothier who is extremely skilled in observing dogs and their behavior and spoke on "The Elemental...

Hi Dr Jeff, I will most certainly report back on my experiences with the speakers in general as well as Dr Pope. After thoroughly reading her website, it is my "gut feeling" that she is the real deal. She requires all her patients to have a primary veterinarian who she will work with to come up...

There is an Integrative Veterinary Oncologist speaking at the Healthy Dog Expo in Albany, NY April 6th. www.healthydogexpo.com Her name is Dr Kendra Pope and she is a board certified veterinary oncologist and she specializes in Integrative care for cancer patients as well as...

Good Morning, Question about rubrics and context. Another rubric I have found is : Modalities: Ameliorations: Eating (32) taken from Boericke's MM Our dog will also eat constantly, steal food and in general at times is just plain obsessed by food. Always has been. He is an anxious dog. So...

Hi Robin, I found Wendy Thatcher Jenson's book , Veterinary Homeopathy, very helpful for case taking. It is under the Member Resources tab under Research Resources as an e-book. I bought a copy and read it all the way through and it really helped me to organize my thoughts and sort through the...

Hi Robin, Are you familiar with Mieshelle Nagelschneider? I read her book last winter "The Cat Whisperer". I really enjoyed it and found her protocol's for cats in all household situations very interesting. She breaks aggression down into several categories and explains how to go about bringing...

Great work Dr Jeff! Yes, those questions can take a while to answer and as training and trust progress they may be asked again and again. I believe that Archie can be the office dog and ambassador of good will. I don't know him well enough to know if he would be a good Therapy dog. I feel a...

Quick question about the mushroom powder. Can the powder be used in cooking? Like in dog cookies or the fresh cooked mixture that I make my dogs? Just curious if the benefits of the mushrooms would be compromised in the cooking process? Thanks, Jackie

Hi Becca, I hope you get to see Suzanne in April. She's great! I am not going to be able to do her workshop on Sunday as I am doing an afternoon Restorative Yoga and Reiki workshop that day. I am ,however ,going to try to make the Expo on Saturday and will at least get to see her for her...

Great topic! Dog training and behavior have been my passion for many, many years. Although, I have yet to work in the field professionally I have been able to help and guide many people and their dogs over the many (nearly 30)yrs as a vet tech and I currently teach the kids from one of our...

I would also look at EZ Groom. They are enzymatic shampoo's. I use the Crystal white occasionally on my Eskie's. They also have a Crystal Gold for colors. Premier Shampoo by EQyss Grooming Products is another one. I have a groomer friend that loves that one. Unfortunately, they almost always...

Hi Kristen, Thanks for posting. You have reminded me of the essential oil issue when using homeopathic remedies. My most favorite shampoo has always been Only Natural Pet's Herbal Shampoo's and they all have essential oils )-; I have an American Eskimo Dog that I show in Breed Conformation. A...

Good Morning, To answer Dr Jeff's question... Homeopathy treats each individual as an individual using 1 carefully selected remedy that best fits the totality of all the symptoms (of that particular individual). I have attached a file of a combo remedy that a friend(knowing my alternative ways...

Be sure you get Organic Celery! Just finished reading the 2018 Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen compiled by the Environmental Working Group. They have celery at #10 on the Dirty Dozen list saying that 95% of conventionally grown celery has up to 13 pesticides detected per sample Dirty Dozen™...

What about Mushrooms?? Not sure off hand what the perfect combo would be but (according to our hand out)Dr Ihor Basko would at least use Reishi, Maitake and Shitake. Maybe Cordyceps too. Jackie

Thank you Dr Jeff for your reply. I am definitely not going to do the chip. I found out it is not necessary for his initial DNA paper work. Really didn't want to microchip at all! You confirmed my worries. He may or may not not ever be bred. He is the end of a line of American Eskimos that are...

I am sitting here pondering the safety of microchips. I have a 2 yr old American Eskimo Dog that I am about to do some genetic testing on for potential breeding purposes. If he proves to be genetically sound breeding stock than moving forward I will need a way of permanently identifying him. He...

Thanks Dr Jeff, I guess I need to cross reference my antidotes as well. I was using Kent's Repertory and he didn't mention Rhus-t. I have been dosing the Arsenicum in the most simple form. I add 1 pellet to about 2 cc of distilled water in a clean dose syringe and flick the syringe about 5...

Good Morning, After contemplating the questions regarding lameness and fears, I determined that the fears are the same in intensity but are more numerous due to being exposed to triggers that he had not previously met. The triggers being the loud speakers at dock diving events which he attended...

Good Morning, I was supposed to report back about Tux at the end of August. Life got in the way but I was also seeing more symptoms and symptoms returning so I have been gathering information. To review. The original post left off with Tux's itching improving, not as heat seeking or restless...
