Herbal Hemp/CBD Supplement for Pets
CBD – Herbal Hemp Supplement for Pets May 11, 2018 With studies and anecdotal evidence continuing to discover more exciting natural benefits of CBDs from Hemp for dogs, many pet owners have begun to incorporate CBD powder (or oil ) into their dog’s diets to promote general well being. It has been found that just like humans, dogs (and most likely other animals) have an endocannabinoid system that interacts with cannabinoids like CBD. The endocannabinoid system is a naturally occurring regulatory network responsible for maintaining homeostasis in the body’s many functions, some of which...

By Dr. Jeannie Thomason I know you have heard it before, “You are what you eat!” This applies to our companion animals just as much as it does to us humans.

By Dr. Jeannie Thomason I know you have heard it before, “You are what you eat!” This applies to our companion animals just as much as it does to us humans. The right food/nutrients is critical and essential to good brain function, muscle and organ growth and maintiance, and of course to a strong immune system. Yet the majority of dogs (and cats) around the world are not adequately nourished these days and we are seeing lifelong consequences for health and cognitive development. Nutrients from the foods we offer our dogs to eat; needs to provide the foundation of the structure,... Read More

Species Specific Nutrition – for dogs
By Dr. Jeannie Thomason What is Species Specific Nutrition? It is supplying the nutritional needs of the body according to the species. For example, horses are herbivores – whether they are wild or domesticated, whether they are a big Irish Draught or a Shetland Pony. They must have grasses and herbs to thrive. Bear and […]
By Dr. Jeannie Thomason What is Species Specific Nutrition? It is supplying the nutritional needs of the body according to the species. For example, horses are herbivores – whether they are wild or domesticated, whether they are a big Irish Draught or a Shetland Pony. They must have grasses and herbs to thrive. Bear and Swine are omnivores and scavangers they must have both grasses, fruits and some meat to thrive. Dogs and cats – both are carnivores – no matter what the pet food and veterinary industry want you to believe. Their jaws, their teeth, their lack of... Read MoreWhy Not Feed Your Pet A Raw Diet?

by Dr. Jeannie Thomason co-founder of the American Council of Animal Naturopathy Not a day goes by that I don’t see people posting on social media or emailing me about their new puppy or kitten already having digestive issues or itchy skin. The majority of these people have already taken the puppy or kitten to a veterinarian (or several) and spent a lot of money on blood tests, fecal tests, dewormers, antibiotics, probiotics, several different brands of pet food and expensive ingredients to make their own “home cooked” diet. Sadly, all to no avail. They are desperately... Read MoreCanine Microbiome and Biological Terrain
While studies on animals are still few, human studies have connected microbial imbalance in the gut to a variety of conditions, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, immune disorders, and liver and brain diseases. Let’s look at microbes, the Microbiome and Biological Terrain:

Wild carnivores eat meat, bones, intestinal contents and internal organs and glands, such as liver, spleen, thyroid, kidneys, brain, adrenals, etc. Dogs and cats are carnivores/predators. For millennia, they have survived by eating other animals. Observation of wild carnivores shows us that the first parts eaten after the kill are typically the abdominal contents (liver, […]
Wild carnivores eat meat, bones, intestinal contents and internal organs and glands, such as liver, spleen, thyroid, kidneys, brain, adrenals, etc. Dogs and cats are carnivores/predators. For millennia, they have survived by eating other animals. Observation of wild carnivores shows us that the first parts eaten after the kill are typically the abdominal contents (liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenals, pancreas and intestines) because the highest priority is placed on eating these organs. Muscle meats are often left to other scavengers, or eaten at a later time. But what is the value of... Read MoreDr. Jeannie
