    Synopsis

    Over 400,000 copies of this treasured classic have been sold since its original publication more than 20 years ago

    The book that is the definitive guide to a natural lifestyle for dogs and cats is now completely updated and revised--for the first time in 9 years. Writing with the warmth and compassion that have won them a national following, veterinarian Richard H. Pitcairn and his wife Susan Hubble Pitcairn, noted specialists in chemical-free nutrition and natural healing for pets, show dog and cat owners how to provide the very best in companionship and lifelong care.

    They now cover environmental matters, including pollutants both inside the home and out, as well as recent hot-button topics, such as Mad Cow disease, Lyme disease, and the West Nile virus. They've 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 disorders-with special attention to homeopathic, herbal, and nutritional remedies.

    January 23, 2008: Pitcairn's book has been in print for twenty years and sold hundreds of thousands of copies for a reason. Pitcairn writes in the voice of someone clearly passionate about his work, and as someone who's willing to learn. The book is clearly written and well set out, equally suitable for someone wanting to read up or as a quick reference guide. Taking in all the factors that affect your pets health, as well as considering some that affect our lives (environmental considerations, for example) Pitcairn's book should be a must have for every pet lover.
