You Could Be Killing Your Dog without Even Knowing It

Commonly referred to as “man’s best friend”, most dog owners regard their dogs as members of their family; in fact, some of them prefer to sleep next to their pet dogs rather than share the bed with their spouses. In recent years, dogs have become fashion icons, many thanks to Paris Hilton’s love for Tinkerbell, her female Chihuahua that not only became an overnight sensation for “writing” its memoir, but also for setting the trend among “accessory pets”. Most dogs do not have Tinkerbell’s celebrity status, but their owners surely love them just as much. Or, so Linda thought.nnLinda Kajda of Massachusetts adores her Pomeranian Pebbles, who she felt helpless for when Pebbles started shedding her hair and not even her Vet could offer permanent relief. nnImagine her shock when she was told that she could lose her precious Pebbles to alopecia, a hormonal imbalance, which caused Pebbles to shed her fur, not in strands, but in clumps! nnDog’s Best Friend Can Be Its EnemynnLinda embarked on research that led to her discovery that it was SHE who caused her dog’s misery. Just like Linda, you could be killing your dog too without even trying. It just comes “within the territory.”nnDespite the TLC she’s getting from you, your dog can get sick inside your home. Linda wrote a book about her discovery on dog health problems; here is an excerpt of that book on what you can do to save your dog’s life, without seeing your Vet:nn1.

Start feeding your dog with natural foods, such as fruits and some helpings of vegetables and notice how the new diet will starve fleas off your dog’s back!nn5. Frequent visits to your vet’s clinic due to your dog’s recurring skin problem brought about by ticks can cause a dent in your wallet. Soak a cotton ball in liquid soap and apply it on the affected skin of your dog. See what happens.nnYour dog’s environment and diet can contribute to its health – or death. The good news is you can do something about it. There are natural and home-made remedies that you can apply on your dog’s skin disorders and providing your dog with a good helping of natural foods can restore health, without shelling out hundreds of dollars to Vets, unless it is extremely necessary.nnLinda has proven that her new found household remedies work and she would like to share these with all dog owners as much as possible. nnSave your dog early.
