Reviews for The Natural Vet's Guide to Preventing and Treating Arthritis in Dogs and Cats

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. <br>-- W. Jean Dodds, DVM, president of Hemopet and coauthor of The Canine Thyroid Epidemic <br>
