Book Description
Natural Healing for Dogs and Cats A–Z is filled with natural and holistic practices that can return your pets to health and keep them there. Set in an A–Z format, this beautiful book makes it easy to look up any issue your pet has.
As cats and dogs live with us for longer periods of time, they are privy to our habits and faults, facing environmental toxins, antibiotic overuse, commercial convenience foods, and chemical parasite products. As a result, they’re developing more complex imbalances affecting the immune system. They can also get stomach ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, high cholesterol, and thyroid and heart disorders. In short, they mirror all of our problems.

Reviews
“Not only is this a great book, but Dr. Cheryl is a wonderful veterinarian!! She is incredibly intuitive and knowledgeable and my animals (cats, dogs, and horses) have been in the best of health since being under her care -- and I had some rather difficult cases.”
“It's about time someone put together a clear and concise guide to the numerous alternative veterinary treatments available. Dr. Schwartz gives us a path to greater involvement in our pets' care, while stating clearly when to consult a health care professional. As an obedience instructor for over 20 years, I recommend this book highly to all owners of dogs and cats!”
“This beautifully illustrated, colorful, spiral-bound hardcover book would make a great gift for the dog or cat lover with an interest in natural remedies for animals. This A-Z guide to dozens of ailments (from abscesses and arthritis to worms and yawning) is a solid reference for those who prefer to tackle health problems with nutrition, herbs, homeopathy, and massage instead of drugs and chemical insecticides. Don't expect elaborate treatment plans and diagnosis techniques from this little book -- just safe and natural remedies you can try at home. And yes, Dr. Schwartz does take care to point out when it's a good idea to see a professional for diagnosis/treatment.”
