HEALTH CHECK LIST
When deciding to treat a dog holistically, with both a natural diet and non chemical treatment for minor ailments, the check list below may help identify why any problem has started.
BASIC CHECK LIST:
Get accustomed to what the pet’s gums usually look like, notice coat changes, teeth, eyes etc
As with any health issue always look first to the gut, 70 to 90% of the immune system is born there so it is always a good indicator of health.
Are you feeding a fresh diet, be it raw or cooked?
If not could you start adding fresh foods to the diet? According to very recent scientific research feeding a good quality fresh food diet helps keep cancer at bay by more than 70% over feeding a processed food, just the same as us humanfolk! Happy researching.
Is there a need for allergy testing?
Alternatively, does it just need a little tweak maybe or allergy testing perhaps.
Has the diet changed of late or has there been an emotional upset for you or the animal?
Emotional stress can cause all manner of things.
Environmental issues can also pose a threat. New carpets, rugs, curtains, couches come sprayed with chemicals that can effect animals more than human’s.
Try to air things out and buy as natural as you possibly can.
Do you need air freshener plug in and sprays or really strong chemical cleaners? All these things make a difference over time.
So always with any health issues try to work out any changes first.
