Homeopathy For Dogs

By Barry Friedmann

In the United States, an increasing amount of veterinarians are treating dogs with homeopathic medicines with chronic diseases. They are finding out that the impressive, gentle, harmless way that Homeopathy for dogs cures an animal's illness, and is used for diseases to allergic reactions to cancer. The benefits for humans are known to be so great, so why not pets as well?

The employment and acceptance of homeopathy in veterinary medicine has actually duplicated that of physicians. Homeopathy for dogs is an innocuous and efficient option to conventional veterinary medicine. The use of herbs is easy to understand, but the method by which these dosages are said to work can be more difficult to comprehend, and in fact, much of the evidence is incomplete, however, to a greater extent the proof of usefulness is easily accessible.

Homeopathy for dogs is different from orthodox medicine in various manners. The practitioner takes into account the whole picture and a prescribed medicine is not established on a diagnosis. Rather the prescription will be supported on the particulars of the case.

As an example: a dog may show signs of anorexic (loss of appetite) without being thirsty and could have an irritable personality as well as diarrhea. In another scenario, a second dog may not have an appetite,may be very thirsty, appear listless and experience episodes of vomiting. A conventional veterinarian would probably treat both dogs much the same way, but a homeopathic doctor, based on the two different scenario's demonstrated, the homeopath would prescribe two different remedies.

Homeopathy for dogs may be used to treat personality disorders such as travel anxiety, aggressive behavior, fear, and separation anxiety. While conventional medicine only suppresses the behavior, which returns when the drugs are stopped, a homeopathic remedy can achieve a cure.

Having experienced this with his own dog, one veterinarian treated his dog with homeopathic medicine because of the animal's fear of thunderstorms, and was over the moon when it was cured. Acupuncture and acupressure are also used to raise the body's personal healing energies to offer alleviation of pain and rejuvenate the dog to balanced health.

Giving your pet really good nutrition is a great help in this procedure, and the goal of homeopathy for dogs is a more gradual, milder form of therapy, attaining the highest level of health for the canine companion. Never treat your dog without first consulting a veterinarian qualified in homeopathy to correctly select the appropriate remedy for your dog.

If you've started a remedy and not getting a response from your pet, you can then start another remedy. There is no concern of overdosing or contra-indications as with conventional medicine.

Homeopathy for dogs has helped many pets, but as with any new product, you should monitor your pet. Homeopathic remedies should never be handled directly as this may reduce their effectiveness. The remedy should be given to the dog on a clean palate, at least 15-30 minutes before or after eating or drinking.
