Dr. Pitcairn’s New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats A good basic…. – Keebler – Suwanee, GA
This is a good book to have in one’s library although it seemed like the areas of interest I had specifically when I purchased this book were not included. It still is a good reference book.
I bought 3 of these after Dr Pitcairn’s name kept appearing as I researched holistic pet care information (I gave one to my son and one to a close friend who have dogs). I have been feeding a raw diet to my 2 dogs and 3 cats for over 2 years now, and have been an advocate against frequent vaccinations for my pets for quite some time. I have read about and donated to the “Rabies Challenge Fund” after having a cherished family dog die of acute Kidney failure from getting the Lyme Vaccine. This book has confirmed everything I have researched myself, as well as what my own personel feelings have been (I work as an Advanced Practice Nurse in the healthcare industry). Some of it may be a little technical and seem hard to grasp, but the information and recipies are wonderful! I do not cook any of the meat I give my pets and they are in wonderful health. I have found it to be invaluable in helping my 12 1/2 year old Dalmation who has some arthritis and plan on using the advice and remedies on my new puppy whose breed could have a disposition to Hip Dysplasia. For those of you who may be non-believers, I ask you if you would do to your children what you are doing to your pets- chemicals, additives, booster vaccines every year? This book explains many things which make perfect sense. I will use it as a resource everyday. I have ordered 2 more to give to friends! : PitcairnOver 400,000 copies of this treasured classic have been sold since its original publication more than 20 years agoThe book that is the definitive guide to a natural lifestyle for dogs and cats is now completely updated and revisedfor the first time in 9 years.

Theyve updated dozens of recipes for delicious and healthful pet food and treats. With a guide to handling emergencies and an in-depth Quick Reference section, they give specific instructions for preventing, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of animal diseases and disorderswith special attention to homeopathic, herbal, and nutritional remedies.

National Geographic’s The Photographers We presented this video to our camera club which comprises of novice and professional photographers and it was a big hit! You get the behind the scenes set ups, and the various photographers talk about their work, why they chose to be with Nat Geo, they’re feelings and opinions of the work they do and how they think about what affect the shots will have on their readers. It’s not all that glamorous, and that’s fine because live isn’t always glamorous. The content portrays what they do is very rewarding, especially when it evokes readers to contact the magazine and/or the photographer to say they were touched by the photos. One such story relayed was that school children had collected money for children in need in Africa and sent it to a mission there. Some subjects’ lives have been followed after the photos were published to see how they are, while friendships forged by the photographer and their subjects were portrayed. You can’t beat the amazing nature photography, as you learn so much about animals, their habitat and the people who strive to study them and struggle to help them survive. The variety of photographers they interviewed about their work which is displayed while they are discussion it is insightful. You do not have to be a photographer to appreciate this video. It has a few violent/ graphic scenes such as, the extreme poverty in Afica and the violence of the hunt with lions ripping apart a zebra, but that’s all part of life. I highly recommend this video for it’s quality of work and the personal insights of the photographers. The resulting pictures throughout are breathtaking and unique. I like the way they seperated the various subject matter by each photographers’ specialty. Well worth the money!! Warner Brothers: The Photographers includes a behind-the-scenes look into the lives of National Geographic photographers and how they get the shot presented in a compelling one-hour program; plus the bonus half-hour film on wildlife filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert entitled A Passion for Africa; an assortment of photographs in the Photo Gallery; biographies and photos of the photographers; an interactive trivia quiz; and trailers of other related National Geographic programs. Going behind the camera and on assignment with veteran photographers for National Geographic, this documentary answers the eternal question asked by the magazine’s readers: “How in the world did they get that shot?” The photographers recount the grueling preparation that shooting for the magazine entails, from mundane details such as obtaining visas to preparing oneself for dangers such as severe climates, deep-sea dives, raging beasts, and local bandits. And don’t forget insects, lots and lots of insects, a point made pellucid as photographers in a fast montage rattle off how many times they’ve battled malaria. Besides the physical ordeals, there is also discussion of the emotional toll involved in shooting in brutal conditions, such as one photographer’s recounting of how distressing it was to continue shooting pictures in the famine zone of the Horn of Africa. Beyond all the hardships, the travel to the world’s farthest flung places involves considerable loneliness, but the photographers interviewed speak of having the “best job in the world,” and their enthusiasm for the work is abundant. It goes without saying that this video is a visual delight, as many examples of noteworthy National Geographic photographs, and entertaining explanations of how the shot was set up and snapped, appear throughout. –Robert J.
