Expanded Description:
Arthritis is common in dogs and increasingly prevalent in cats. In this comprehensive, up-to-date resource, Dr. Shawn Messonnier, the world's leading holistic veterinarian, equips pet owners with the knowledge they need to recognize and treat this debilitating condition. Dr. Shawn helps caregivers blend the most effective conventional and alternative therapies, including acupuncture, homeopathy, and nutritional supplements. He offers tips on preventing arthritis and getting the most out of vet visits. In addition, Dr. Shawn distinguishes the approaches appropriate for cats and dogs, highlights age-specific strategies, and offers diet and exercise guidelines for the arthritic pet. The result is the most effective care for companion animals -- and peace of mind for the humans who love them.
This new book from Dr. Shawn is important, timely, and simply excellent. It presents a valuable, insightful review of conventional therapies for managing and treating arthritis in dogs and cats and then explains in detail the alternative therapies and holistic modalities that can be used to help prevent, mitigate, and treat arthritis in these animals. The chapter summaries are useful, and the last chapter nicely ties the whole book's points together.-- W. Jean Dodds, DVM, president of Hemopet and coauthor of "The Canine Thyroid Epidemic
