Holistic medicine cannot replace vaccinations and other forms of conventional medicine but it may offer altenative therapy options to pets who aren't responding to traditional treatment or cannot tolerate some drugs
Ignoring evidence-based options can be very dangerous to pet owners and their pets if a pet owner chooses to completely avoid conventional medicine. For example, vaccinations are proven to be an effective means of disease prevention and should not be ignored despite the fact that many strictly holistic veterinarians may not offer them. This is particularly true in the case of rabies vaccines since rabies may be passed from pets to humans and is considered fatal to both. Completely avoiding the use of proven medications and surgeries to treat illness can be very harmful to a pet.
Please help! I told my vet i thought my dog had fleas. He was on simpleguard . I saw a reaction with bravecto. Im a raw feeder but i live in ct. I want my pet to be on natural products. Unfortunately my vet insisted my german shepherd had allergies not fleas . I couldnt watch him suffer and i gave in and let her do cytopoint shot. Well the fleas were the issue as tore out the carpet i got attacked! Now im sure of it and i cant get rid of them. What Can i do ? I hope cytopont didnt cause any problems as i never believed it was allergies. I bathed with natural products. I have also vacumned every few days , waShed and dried everything high heat including bedding but im exhasted and still he has fleas! I have lyme disease and have been dealing with it for 14 yrs. In ct. Ticks are everywhere. I need a new vet . There arent very many holistic vets close to me. How do i deal with first getting rid of fleas and second can cytopoint hurt my dog from that one shot? I forgot to mention i used diamateous earth and bought a steam cleaner. Please 😢 im putting my immune system in flareup mode . Thanks ellen
I forgot to say he also has fibrotic myopathy in the gracilis inner thigh and i need to keep him healthy and not cause it to progress by having him exposed to uneeded vacines and poision .
So we all have to make the decision that lives in Connecticut or in a high tick
area because tick borne disease can also kill our dogs so we do have to put chemical on them. It’s a chance but we’re doing nothing. It’s the worst chance if anyone has any help, please post and thank you very much.
Those with any sense would extend this message to your friends, family and everyone else within earshot.
Sadly, there is not a holistic vet anywhere near me. These videos are the best education I can get and I appreciate them so much, thank you.
Not near me either. We do everything because we love them, then to find out a lot of stuff is unnecessary.
Veterinary secrets is another great channel 💪
I do not try to vaccinate at all. Rabies has been eradicated. No need..If I could find someone to take a titer test I would. The trick is getting them groomed w/o a shot!
You just tell the vet that your dog doesn't need it. End of story. That is what I do.
@@angies7906 ya i did that for 3 years and he ended up getting exposed from the virus so now that's my fault
Wow, me being poor and can’t afford the immunization 💉 for my dogs. This makes me feel better
I felt guilty also. I never vaccinated my boy. Mine just passed at 18 years old. Never had any health issues at all.
See....there's the silver lining! ❤
It's a law in NY that one's dog must have Rabies vax. I found out even if they tell you it's a one year shot, it's really 3. My boy is old so he doesnt get them anymore anyway.
However I couldn't keep the fleas away all summer abd had to give him Capstar and flea/tick drops 😢 still got fleas so I resorted to Nexguard. Poor thing, I feel like I'm killing him 😭
Keep him home far from other dogs and potentially contaminating places. It seems that there is a new virus or something in the US and many doggies had died. By the way, many people is not “ injecting” their pets with vaxs because too many had suffer from serious reactions and had got very sick or had died. I imagine that not all but it seems that a too big amount. Stay well!
my own vet told me she does not revaccinate her dogs, and only gives the repeat rabies shots because it would be illegal not to. And she is a traditional vet, not a holistic one. She won't push for non-core vaccines. I love her. I waited till my puppy was 24 weeks to make sure I only had to get his Distemper and Parvo shots once, and she used the Boehringer Ingleheim Recombitek vaccines because they were the the only ones available with no adjuvants. I looked all over to find a vet service who uses them. Rabies at 8 months with the Merial IMRAB TF thimerosal-free vaccine, and I am hoping to preserve his health.
"Core" or non-core, aII are poison, and I'm with the vets who say NONE.
My vet is also mostly traditional, but open to natural remedies, and appreciated it when I lent her my copies of Juliette di Bairicli-Levy's books "The Complete Herbal for Farm Animals" and "The Complete Herbal for Dogs and Cats."
My previous vet seriously bucked me, when our Truffle kitty showed up as an emaciated and dehydrated maybe six week old kitten at a neighbor's house, and I didn't want to give her antibiotics, since I was already giving her milk kefir to build up her immunity.
But even he allowed that, if indeed I was giving her homemade milk kefir, that he'd adopt a wait and see approach.
She thrived, is now nearly four years old, and has never needed antibiotics, or anything other than wellness checks.
The only vaccines I give my animals are thimerosol-free three-year rabies shots.
@@Keyspoet27 With or without the mercury, stiII poison. I can give fuII info on an uncensored platform.
@@eddiesaviarycom-fu9me Slightly, from what I understand, but nowhere near three times a regular dose.
Realistically, MOST vaccines don't need to be given annually - if you get a titer test, and your pet still has good antibodies, the vaccine is not needed.
Unfortunately, most titer test aren't cheap, some are hard to find, and not all who require vaccines accept the results of titer tests - despite them being entirely scientifically valid.
Can a 1 1/2 yr.old female handle a combo injection or is it better to inject separately (dog)?
How about some shows on cats, or including cats’ health in your shows?
My dog is very healthy and he got his shots 2years and had a serious reaction. Face swelling, neck swelling and vomiting. Had to rush him to vet, Benadryl, cortisone, prednisone. The vet said to give him Benadryl next time. No next time!
I’m so sorry 😢 I hope your baby is well now ❤
TIP -- bathe your dog with Irish Spring people soap. Mosquitoes and fleas hate it and stay away.
Are you serious?
Used it on our horses in the summer, too! They hate it!😂
May I ask how ?
Oh my gosh she mentioned the Baltic essential Amber necklaces! They so work!
Ants destroy ticks. We have lots of ants down here in this area, and there aren't tick problems here, in this particular area at least. My husband worked in Mississippi for a while and said there are lots of ticks there. But saw no ants. I have ant piles all over my yard, and they are welcome to stay. I'd prefer ants over ticks.
This is good to know. I have a lot of ants too. We have many deer that visit now and I hope the ants do the job. Whatever it is.
We have every kind of ant known to man down here in Bolivia, and recently we started also having trouble with ricks. Unfortunately our ants aren't doing their job😢
Ticks
Check out Fleasgone tags. Once the fleas are under control, the tag, on your pets collar, works with the electro magnetism of their heart to repel fleas, ticks and mosquitoes. There are 2 year and 5 year protection options. I ordered one for my standard poodle puppy to try. I will be ordering one for my cattledog and cat as well. No chemicals.
Vets in NM want $ 1K+ for Yorkie teeth cleaning and one or so extractions. Last vet said feewas $1.5, said needing to remodel clinic. People cannot afford to keep their pets!
Sprinkle kelp powder on their food to keep the tartar off their teeth.
Which brand @@invincibel4007
Do not ever use Seresto collars. My Maltese developed neurological issues - basically necrosis and led to his death. He didn’t have to die. He wouldn’t have if it weren’t for Seresto. Vet denied that the root cause was Seresto but I am adamant that it was. Vets need better and up to date training based on current studies not 20 years ago. I have a 5 month old tiny Bichon and she had the core vaccines and our vet adjusts the dosage due to her size - as it should be. I won’t inject her with anything else. Now, I just need to find a natural preventative for fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes.
Ah ! My dog wears a ceresto it’s the only thing that keeps the tics from infesting and biting her body 😢 there’s a drastic difference im plucking dozens of tics off her per week vs only a few or none with the collar . They are all over the yard and on hiking trails . So I check her every single day . I don’t want her to get Lyme disease again .
I threw away the Seresto collar two weeks ago after learning more from these interviews. I just started giving my two large dogs fresh minced garlic with their food after Dr Judy’s explanation. I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss and know your pain. Thank you for sharing your experience as it needs to be known to help inform others. Sending you hugs ❤
I recommend Wondercide for fleas and ticks
A few years ago my dogs got VERY SICK wearing Seresto. They recovered. I am so sorry for your loss.
I am sorry for your loss.😢
Unfortunately,
Traditionally veterinary medicine is a business as in allopathic Western medicine for people. They are not going to change their ways for promoting pharmaceutical and toxic products. They are trained in vet school on medications and products and disease care models. It's a racket and they prey on fear and guilt shaming pet parents to do XY and z in the name of the almighty dollar.
I encourage pet parents to educate themselves on natural pet care and do best to find a holistic vet if possible.
Maybe I’m dumb, but this was so confusing lol
So agree, just more confused
agree.
Thank you so much for this !
Thank you for doing these chats. They are so informative!
Y'all are awesome....🐶🐶🐶🙌🏼
Just found your channel , gotta SUBSCRIBED
That fleas and tick meds made my pit bull have a Cesar's I stayed up all night praying 🙏 🤲 THINK GOD SHE MADE IT BECAUSE THE VETS NEED TO TELL U SIDE AFFECTS BECAUSE I LOVE HER LIKE MY BABBY
I stopped vaxing in the 90's, children too. My pets were better till I discovered poison vitamin A, copper and Cobalt in dog food recently. Probably why 3 of 5 died from cancer. Now they get none of that, dog eats my food now. 😊 Thank you for education people.
I think that's why my boy dog died from. He ended up getting a tumor and it was cancerous and bleeding internally.
Thank you both so much for all the info .I appreciate you both.🌹
We don't use anything for fleas/ticks, we just do daily tick checks with our dogs. Had a flea problem once years ago, and did use advantage for that and got rid of it.
We feed raw whole animal when we have it. Kibble we change every time we buy a new bag, and we only buy ones containing a minimum of 50% meat ingredients, such as acana, taste of the wild, borealis.
Thank You for saving lives 💚
Rachel you are a great interviewer, congrats.
Excellent interview, I will be researching topics you discussed. Thank you si much
My dog got extremely ill from flea and tick meds. Never again.

Crock pot cooked.
Sounds like Dog Dish Diet by Dr. Greg Martinez
Loved the one, Rachel! Awesome!!! ❤
This was so helpful. My dog had a bad reaction to Trifexis. It is a heartworm flea and dewormer, after 24 hours of taking this medication, my husky got really confused and dizzy like, even almost drunk looking. Stumbling. It was really scary and I did not know what was going on. Seeing this video helped a lot seeing that it is a neurological problem. I will definitely look into natural remedies. Thanks for this video 🙏🏽❤️
It’s almost as if You’re describing what happened to my 10 lb Chorkie. It was AWFUL and the poor little guy was very scared. Never again.
My daughter's husky eas given that and the next had a grand mal seizure
My dog have the same conditions that you desciption. After he got vaccine and deworming, he acting confused, sad, like a drunk all the time. He never like that before. Now i need to stop going to the vet. I dont want to lose my dog
Same here with my golden retriever girl . She got so sick hat the next month she literally would NOT take the pill she was scared . I could see it and feel it in her behavior and I sure wasn’t going to force it on her . I had to do it with the doxycycline
I had to give her for Lyme disease. It was several pills a day for 8 weeks .
I had a Boston terrier that I had given a heartworm pill too I believe it was heartgard cuz I use the NexGard for flea and tick and I never noticed that happening to anybody but when I give the heartgard to her she started having a reaction almost like a seizures like she was jerking and like going backwards and blinking her eyes real fast and it scared me so bad I didn't know if it was the heartworm pill or she had got a hold of a little frog out back when it was raining but I didn't really think it was that I even showed the vet told him what happened I didn't have a video though he said well if she continues to have them bring her some medicine for seizures but she never done it again but when she went to have her puppies for the first time I lost her after he done the C-section she couldn't have them she was throwing up black stuff before I got her to the vet and she had had one puppet home then I got her to the vethe did a C-section and fixed her well he said after she is coming out of sedation she throwed up so he'd like to keep her in the morning and I thought oh no she wasn't used to being by herself and I think she was kind of freaking out from having the puppy and then she wake up and it probably wouldn't be there what she was going to do cuz he made me take him home well he said he don't know what happened but the next morning he called me and he said she passed I was so highly upsetting it bothered me so bad and I just wondered what happened he said well could have been a bad hard she could have had a blood clot something could have been going on with your that we didn't know about or whatever but the only thing I know is that she started having that reaction after that heartworm pill but that was before she was ever pregnant. 😢.
Thank you for doing this!!!
This is fantastic I am very interested in the program. So happy it is available in Canada. Thank you ladies
What I do naturally for flea and tick prevention is use Amber resin bead necklaces.... that's unfinished Amber. I was very skeptical when I ordered them.... I have two big dogs.
I ordered them from Baltic Essentials. They've been on them for 3 months now and nothing. I thought they wouldn't last a week . Very strong and knots in between each bead .. leather closure .. I looked it up and they say that the vibration from the Amber on the fur makes an uncomfortable living environment for fleas and ticks. $25 and it's supposed to last a year. Great!
For fleas diamatacous earth works pretty well
Thanks for the info! ❤it is Very helpful! Mila got rabies vaccine injury 😢 I wish we knew better. We found a holistic vet only after the fact, trying to find way to help her to recover. A year after she is still limping on her right leg and cannot go for long walks. But doctor who vaccinated her refuse to acknowledge that this caused by vaccine. So we are not going back to the regular vet. We have also lost our first dog due to autoimmune diseases. And my sister lost her 1 year old puppy to cancer. This is crazy.
Hope everyone finds this info before it is too late. We love Mila so much and hope to keep her healthy and happy for many years. 🤗🥰
I hope your dog is well for years. My little dog I stopped after the covid vaccine lies. No more as they are putting the MRNA in all shots.
So scary . Ugh a puppy cancer .. I'm terrified of some of these Vet's. So sorry for your sister.. I'm searching holistic lost my dog I know now why . And my puppy is not a year but close .. have not found a vet
@@larasikora5534 I know how you feel. Keep looking for someone good, they have lied as much as our GPs. I want you and your puppy to be safe and well. Be wary of everything today!
3 of my dogs had enlarged hearts. Also my healthiest dog is intact. He is sweet, calm and does not "mark" his territory any more than my neutered dog he is also ideal weight where my neutered dog is obese. It sickens me. I watch the channel The Asher House. He adopts dogs and the vaccine damaged dogs with paralysis is unbelievable!!!! We never had that in the "good ole days."
Do vaccines cause seizures? My sister had 2 dogs that were brought in after their puppy vaccines and after receiving their shots started having seizures. Both dogs had to be put down before they were 2 years old. Vaccinations terrify me
Yes. They can give seizures.
Horrible vaccines.
Also flea and tick collars, dog commercial snacks. Other meds as well.
YES!!!!! I had 3 dogs that had seizures after rabies shot. Also I took one of them back to the vet because he was walking along the walls and seemed disoriented with his head tilted to the side. He had a mini stroke. The vet would not admit to this. He just said...."this sometimes happens and it will clear up!!!" It did but I stopped giving ALL shots after that.
Yes, I also had a dog that developed cluster seizures after a rabies vaccine
9:43 I barely have 3 friends let alone 25 😂
Me two especially with 25 dog friends!
@@darialois1 right!😆
totally !!! lol
I live in Florida where the mosquitoes are awful! I always buy a tube of horse ivermectin and dose it properly every month as well as Strongid paste for other flea borne parasites. Never had an issue and they had a healthy long life!
There was a huge meta-analysis of ivm and they found that it is 13 times safer than tylenol. It's an amazing drug that is unfortunately getting a bad rep for political reasons these last couple years. Shame.
Where can I find the strongid paste please? Will both of those help fight off fleas?
Nice share
@@taniam.4554any farm or tractor supply
We been giving our corgi ivermectin every 2 weeks . Plus we take it also
This video has been so inspirational,I have been using a known brand one and done flea/tick/womer I feel even though she is 26kg she looks to me not healthy she was being sick a few times a month and chewing and picking scratching biting etc and biting at her tail base like she has fleas but there is nothing there.she was having the scoots a few times a month I looked at what was in dry food and was horrified so I started home feeding her some of these symptoms were better but not totally eradicated so that left the monthly flea/worm/tick drugs she wasn't like this as a puppy it's progressively got worse so I have stopped these I had two left and even though they cost money I feel her health is more important I was floored to hear its in the bloodstream for ninety days so majestic wonder why is it being put as monthly, I also notice Dr Ruth saying about swollen muzzle and itching recently my girl was spayed and.was given her kennel cough as well and that is exactly the symptoms she's displaying she has scratched her snout into the wood and this started after her get vist so I'm taking a stand I am her voice as she can't say yes or no I'm home feeding and doing the holistic approach thank you so much this has been so interesting and benefits us
I feel strongly the same
for the NATURAL
I soo AGREE
My poor lad is 7 years old. Up until almost 3 years ago, he’d had every vaccine & booster. Flea tick & worm tablets every 3 months. Then he started with ear infections.. constant vet treatment. I stopped all medication.. still no improvement, constant ear and skin problems. I feel so sad for him..
That is yeast. I'd give him good probiotics. Keep him very dry. Look into dog yeast & how to control naturally. Just changing this overgrowth in his system. Antibiotics would only make it worse. I've seen steroids fix the problem, but they can't stay on them because it will ruin their immune system & let disease take over, like cancer. Carbs and sugar, that makes kibble hard, feed the yeasts. Don't use oatmeal shampoo because it keeps the skin moist. You don't want this because yeasts grow in moist dark places, like the ears, in paws & skin. It's so itchy and miserable.
This isn't the result of vaccines. It's a yeast.
I use virgin coconut oil for our dogs' ears. Two of them have severe ear infection (fungal, I believe) but after cleaning their ears with VCO regularly, the infection cleared up but it was tedious because for the first few months, I needed to clean their ears almost daily and even put some drops into the ear and rub the base of their ears so the oil can reach the rest. They don't like it but the improvement was worth it. Now, I just clean their ears monthly using VCO and still putting some drops in after cleaning their ears.
Don’t forget dogs need probiotics too!! Recurring yeast infections can be cured with good animal pre and probiotics
@@CaliKiwi- I’ve started giving him kefir grains.. my grains are multiplying like crazy. They’re full of pre & probiotics.
Live in Georgia. Flea infestation every year here. Use Flea Busters in my home, nematodes in the yard. Must be proactive about these products. Keep Capstar close also if I have to use it.
I feed my cats and dog N&D from farmina. Grain free chicken pomegranate and duck and cranberry for my cats and chicken,spelt and oats for my dog.
Not cheap to say the least. But it is kibble. Any advice?
Have a blessed day.
One of my dogs had a terrible reaction to Bravecto..vomiting and diarrhea. He had been on Bravecto before and first time he had this reaction. I swear I’ll never give that drug again!
I agree with you on this one. My Yorkies had blood in their poop after Bravecto. NEVER AGAIN!!!
My vet of 21 yrs pulled my dogs off Bravecto after only 3 doses. She read too much about adverse reactions to the product. We moved to Simparica.
My poor little dachshund was just given bravecto too, never again. His fur turned white around his mouth ( he's just turned 2yrs old). The worst is his breathing has been seriously affected, still heavily panting 10 mins after a little excerise, and so lethargic most of the day. Previously he was so active and playful but not anymore 😢
My vet recommended Braveco for a trip to CO. (I asked). Glad I saw the comments. Not giving it to him.
Update, I found a natural alternative that I now give to both our dogs. Earth MD Outdoor Shield. It’s a powder to be sprinkled on their food and given once a day for 7 days either monthly or bimonthly depending
on the area in which you live (of large infestation of ticks /mosquitoes).
One of dogs has flea infestations twice a year so flea drops are a must. I also bathe him in Dawn dish soap and comb several times a day.
Bug MD has a cottonseed oil/clove oil spray that kills them on contact. Ticks too. I used with my flea comb with it.
I know that this is an old post, but hopeful for information. My dog became ill with whipworm and they told me that this will be in our soil for 7 years. Recommended for monthly treatment after he was treated for them. Looking for holistic info on continued treatment, or if it is not needed.
For ticks and fleas i use tobacco decoction wash just like my grandpa did in 1900's.
Tell me more please I'm a pro groomer . I'm interested.
What is that super interesting because I can’t get rid of fleas in house clean and spray but they are always there.
What do you think about the food, “Just Food for Dogs” ???
Ppl need to stop using the term RESCUE !
If you paid for your dog, it’s a purchase and unless you saved it from a burning building, avalanche , streets in Brazil etc, etc….it’s NOT A RESCUE, but a ADOPTION!
If you got it from a rescue or shelter, then it is a rescue dog. Yes, you adopted it. You adopted a rescue dog. You may have paid an adoption fee but in doing that you paid for a tiny portion of all the expenses that went into that animal at the rescue. You did not purchase the dog, you just helped a little towards the huge expense that every animal is in rescue. Other people paid for tge rest of that dog's expenses out of the goodness of their hearts with no reward whatsoever. You got the reward of the dog. That dog could be worth $500 in expenses, $1000 in expenses, or $5000 in expenses and you got the dog for whatever the smaller fee was which rarely ever covers the rescues expenses for thst animal. Tgey do shots, grooming, feed, supplements, vet bills like spaying and neutering surgeries, and other surgeries, depending upon why the animal was turned into the rescue. So you did NOT purchase the dog. You just helped pay a percentage of its expenses during the time it was at the rescue.
🙄
@@nancynunke9783 ah yes, they have you brainwashed alright .
Lol
I was looking for the Vax guide you mentioned that would be in the link. I can not find it??
My dogs had a massive infestation this summer. I HAD to give them flea drops and Capstar, even had the yard sprayed, BUT they still had them!! They're not yard dogs but we do go on short walks, my male demands his walks, so the only way I got rid of 99% was Nexguard.
Oh I even tried Diatomaceous dirt AND essential oil sprays.
When I lived in the south if I had an infestation of flea's I sprinkled Borax on the floors and carpets and let it for 48 hours. Bath them with Dawn dish soap. A vet told me about the Borax. It worked like a charm.
Yes, because what they do not talk about, is that fleas as soon as they bite your dog (or cat etc) BREED immediately, and lay eggs. Very soon you can have 250,000 . The larvae lay in the environment for months, a year and they HATCH out and land on the animal and the cycle just keeps repeating. So you will just keep seeing fleas consistently Unless you kill them in the environment as well. And if the dog isnt treated then it can just keep happening.
When you give monthly treatments, not capstar knockdown but simparica trio or nexgard spectra etc... then if a flea does bite.. it dies. It doesnt breed. You simply dont get the infestations!
Its a lovely kind thought to use something natural to wash your dog for fleas but, it doesnt interrupt the lifestyle of the flea and make a flea free environment.
I do keep up with flea tick and worm treatment but, not with vaccines after the initial ones.
Natural is better, usually, but sometimes it is ineffective. For instance, fleas. I've tried every natural method to the extreme and I have to say, fleas are hard to control. But I have found a middle ground. If you do NOT have cats then you can handle fleas easily with permethrin (the synthetic form of a chemical found in a kind of daisy or geranium, I don't recall what flower.). However do not use on the animal, use it on the bedding, and key places that the fleas are likely to come in contact. Never let them come in contact with it when wet. It must be completely dry before the pets can come into contact. If humans are being attacked by fleas you can do some targeted things that make a huge difference. Spray flooring, especially carpet with permethrin and a growth hormone. I also get the permethrin for clothing (used by hikers for mosquitos and ticks etc) and spray around the sides of mattresses, not the top where you sleep. Use your clothes dryer on high heat for 10 minutes or so to kill fleas on sheets/clothes whatever.
If you have cats, do not use permethrin since it is toxic to cats in a very bad way.
Hi Rachel, can you make a list of core vaccines for puppies 8 weeks and for rescues after 14 weeks. Thank you very much.
Simple. NONE. The healthiest dog I ever owned was never given a shot. Still intact. He is sweet and gentle and does not "mark" his territory and he is an ideal weight. I can't say that about my other dogs I have had throughout my life. It took me 10 years to figure it out and realize Vets are brainwashed by big pharma.
Same here! Best healthiest dog i ever had has never been to the vet. Not a coincidence! @5GreenAcres
one of the vets at my veterinarian's office only recommended Purina pro plan chicken and rice but for the other skin and something issues it was for salmon and sweet potato thing but my dogs won't touch it. Unless I put chicken broth or something and chicken over top of it.
This was so informative! I will always use natural remedies first but I do want to have Capstar on hand. Is it an oral? It seems everything I am finding is that Capstar is oral. I want to make sure that is the correct one? Thank you!
capstar is an oral pill, and if you have a bad flea infestation you might have to give a second round of Capstar to eradicate the new fleas that hatched from the eggs. Capstar kills the adult fleas only, doesn’t destroy the eggs. Once you have no more fleas hatching you can use the topical products from Wondercide and while you are using the capstar, start treating your yard with the Wondercide yard treatment spray. Important fact: spray at dusk so the product will have all night to soak into your grasses and dirt, spray the tree trunks good too! Don’t use that spray during the day time because the sun will evaporate a good portion of it. Good luck!🐾
Can you do a podcast on Pet Insurance?
Only licensed insurance agents/financial .advisors should EVER offer advice on insurance.
Youll have to ring diff places and get some things to compare.
Obv the earlier on you get insurance for your pet ie puppy from 8 weeks, the higher coverage for less cost you will get.
How do you travel without up to date rabies ??
exactly. And Bordetella, kennel Flu shot. etc. etc. All Kennels want these shots completed before Boarding
We only travel within the USA. We bought a motorhome and take our two dogs with us.
@@lukelacasse6412 Don't board your animals unless absolutely necessary.
If you don't board or groom your animals; Bordatella is unnecessary.
In a car
If you cross a border with a pet, the want to see his rabies vaccination certificate.
My Pomeranian was nine weeks old when I took him to the vet for his shots and they it him on a brand name oral flea and tick meds he got pretty sick and a very short time after he started doing this weird head shaking tremors! I took him to UC Davis they ran test and Determined that they weren’t seizures and they couldn’t find any specific thing that would cause that so they called it idiopathic head tremors and they have seen this in several different dog breeds they felt like it could have been from a vaccine that he received but they couldn’t say for sure and now I’m so scared to get him his boosters now and he’ll be two in February!
Omg my dog did that too. It stopped after a while, but it was alarming.
Instead of buying a whole tray of individual vaccine trays, I wonder if the vet could write a prescription like to a petmeds online type pet pharmacy and order one.
I am glad I watched this. A lot of my neighbors give their dog the chewable flea and tick treatment. But my last pup got Lyme disease because the ticks are very bad in the north east. What is the best thing for my new pup? And would you advise Farmers Dog food?
Lived in New England half my life. Tick season is short. Simply sit down ea night and remove ticks. Easy. Problem solved. Plus generally our dogs only got ticks after excursions in the woods. We never had problem on home grounds.
Only 1-2x had flea issues that were picked up at herding trial. Treated w old fashion Sgt's flea powder. Most importantly you treat environment (not dog) 1x week for six weeks w flea powder or salt and voila no more problem, no more need ongoing chemicals or poisoning your dog every month.
I have found my friends who also have cats have a more difficult time w these issues.
Lyme was created in a laboratory and released into the northeastern US. We get lots of ticks in Minnesota (spring thru late fall) but never Lyme disease.
Lyme disease is caused by herpetic virus. The reason pets/humans get sick after a flea bite is, because it triggers Your immune system and can trigger an already present pathogen to rise to action.
@@eshea3621where can I find that flea powder please?
@@taniam.4554 Borax sprinkled around the house for flea infestation. Leave it for 48 hours. A vet actually told me about that. It worked like a charm. I also LIVE in the woods and have difficulty with tics. I have to pull them off and inspect each nite.
The last link doesn’t work just FYI
Diatomaceous earth for on their coat for fless and in their food for worms
In Toronto heart worm is a serious risk. Rabies vaccine is a must by law.
JK, do you give your dog, the flea medication each month. Do you give your dog the Rabies each year?
@@tuduleshiggins8832 it's not one of the brands she mentions. I forget what it's called but it's for flea and tick. each month from about the sprint to the fall only. rabies is every 3 years . Our previous dog was every three years for rabies.shots. my current dog is only 10 months old.
I didn’t realize that Toronto was a hotspot for heartworm!! Wow!
@@tracey1782 yep a friend used to be a practicing vet before going into human pathology research and she said once when she was working at a clinic someone who had taken her dog to a natural vet for natural heart worm prevention brought their dog in who ended up with advanced heart worm as a result of going the natural routeS
How do you deal with worms? We just rescued a three year old and was told he has worms.
I am here because I have a new puppy and I want guidance on food and vaccines, but I will tell you, I hike a lot, and my dearest dog that died two weeks ago had to put her down at the age of nine was on preventative for years, and I finally realized I didn't want to put poison in her anymore
about two years ago, but I have great success with topical

ticks.. no fleas
The link you sent with items for flea and ticks are mostly unavailable 😮
Thank you for this info I was giving my dog flea and tick pills from the vets a year ago he was always sick the vet told me it wasn’t from the medication he hasn’t heard of any issues. So they have me a sample of a newer medication I gave it to him and now he hasn’t been doing well on it he has been sleeping more and limping allot and agitated. I’am stopping this and need a more holistic approach because we have allot of ticks in our yard and in Ct .
You need to use something like wondercide( all natural based on essential oils) Spray your yard with it every three months, and use their preventative oils on your dog. It works wonders for us and we have an acre property!
Also depending on where you live you could get 4-6 Guinea hens and let them roam free on your property, except when you take your dog out of course!😉
Guinea hens feast on ticks, they love them, they will rid an entire field of them in no time!
PS: Don’t use the Wondercide and the Guinea hens together, choose one solution or the other! Good luck!🐾
I never use poisons on any of my animals because I was poisoned by pesticides. I also do not use vaccines and just keep them all confined so they are not exposed.
I've had both my cats and dogs on part homemade natural no-grain diets for over 20 years. I feed them a combination of cooked and raw food with 10% very healthy non-grain kibble. Some of their food has garlic, but not all due to some being sensitive to garlic. (I will say that garlic cured my chickens of lice when they got them at a friend's) Along with being free of allergies and many types of problems due to these diets, I have NEVER had a problem with fleas or ticks since prior to 1991 when I did everything all conventional. Even though we live in a northern climate, we sometimes go south & they have never picked up anything more than no-seeums on occassion & only temporarily. I've found in my experience at least, that a healthy animal does not usually harbor or become overcome with pests.
Try building up your pup's health by a better diet and see if things gradually or quickly improve without poisons. It's worth it, they are healthier and happier.
Interesting. I had a kitten with distemper that we nursed through the illness successfully. At his next vet visit they wanted to vaccinate against distemper and I questioned it and they agreed it wasn't a good idea. My little guy lived almost seventeen years and was the joy of our lives. I am so hesitant thinking of how I am going to negotiate through all these vaccines if I get another cat or dog. I would be interested in finding out what you think about feline inflammatory disease that 3 out of my 5 cats suffered from. Thank you.
After my present beautiful dog i think i will never want to live with a dog again, adraid what gov and pharma will push on them in regard of vacvines and so on. It breaks my heart.
I love so much animals, dogs, cats, but i feel like a criminal and enemy having them and being forced to whatever that damages their beautiful body and soul.😢
Just don't go to the vet.
Here in the UK the rabies shot is the same
Dosage for a chihuahua as a Great Dane! Is there anything that can be done about this? I want to travel with my dogs, but do not want them to be hurt!?
What about shampoos, zodiac, flea and tick shampoo?
I’ve heard They are horrible . I use Castile peppermint soap to wash my golden retriever.
What if you do live in rural Georgia, surrounded by woods with HUGE deer/wildlife population in your yard daily. Dog in contact with huge amount of ticks and fleas. I do biannual heartworm shot that also seems to make fleas/ticks not stay on dog. Only use that. Only get rabies annually, and lepto vacc
I did titer 2 years ago and was first ever request at that vet.
I been giving my corgi every year for 5 years all at once . Omg what to do now ? I don’t want to go to the vet in Jan 2024 for his yearly check up what to do ?
My Spanish grandmother, aunty had allways dogs.
Only 1 rabies shot.
No vaccines.
No dog commercial foods.
No neutering.
Only meat with kitchenscrabs.
They died of age, accidents.
No one had health issues.
I wonder how on earth we survived, together with animals without vaccination...
We should be extinct long time ago without all meds, vaccinations, antibiotics.
Maybe we died if we where not strong enough to fight infections.
How did wolves, lions, elephants, hyenas, snakes, wales, etc...in the wild survived without vaccinations?
Something does not add up.
Why are we as humans so sick the last decades, fighting with auto- imune disorders, cancers, heart disease, renal failure, bowl problems and so on an on, together with the same now in dogs, cats...?
I am so confused by all establishments and gov. who say this and that and force us with all kind of mesures to all kind of things...😢
agree
You dont sound confused to me! Looks like you figured it out. Its all a bullshit scheme!
What you think about deworming? If yes how many doses, my Maltese had tapeworms when breeder gave me her she had her first dose of vaccines and deworming but because I notice she had tapeworms I took her to the vet and gave her her 2 doses vaccines plus deworming, she don’t have the worms no more ever since but doctor scheduled for 3 dose ?? So douse my puppy needed or are we good ?
does this only apply to dogs or to all animals
Like pet food, how are the studies done and shown that these vaxines are safe.
in SE Asia what vaccine to give cause dogs have lots of fleas..or shampoos
So if you do what Dr. Robert's suggested to check the incidence of leptospirosis, it's in the United States and there is a high rate amongst the United States. Please as they say consult with your veterinarian about what's best for your pet. If they are a good veterinarian and want what's best for your pet they will have a discussion with you so you both understand.
Hi, I have a question I went in and took my dog for his annual wellness exam and heartworm test. He’s up-to-date with rabies, but I do not do any other shots but rabies. Anyway, they gave him his exam and they did not mention his teeth being bad we are about wrapping it up getting ready to leave and I asked the vet. Why does he have bad breath and she told me that he has an infection That’s why the bad breath is. He’s a small Yorky shouldn’t she have mentioned this to me after the exam, and before I could get any dental work done, they said he would have to Bordetella vac and DHPP should I go to another vet for a second opinion about my dogs teeth I feel like this is something they should’ve mentioned to me after the exam and not when I was about to leave and I asked the question why does he have bad breath this is something they should’ve caught before it got out of hand if he has anything going wrong with his teeth I’m using text to speech I don’t read or right very well and I hope this is readable
I've been looking ro switch food for my dog but all the options you have are expensive.
I’m fine with not using any of this but I live in Louisiana and the mosquitoes will carry you straight to the swamp!😮 I really am not comfortable not using heart worm prevention but I do want to most safe product!
I have 3 dogs in Texas and mosquitoes are bad most of the year. I have mine on Heartgard plus. It’s the best of the Heartworm preventatives because it supposedly stays in their system for only a couple of days and they could eat the whole box and maybe have some GI upset. Flea and tick prevention you can go more natural but I’ve been told by multiple holistic vets including Dr Judy that, if you live in hotspot areas, then Heartgard or interceptor (if you can’t use Heartgard because you have a shepherd breed or dogs with white footed gene) are the best options for safer, conventional Heartworm prevention.
I live in Louisiana too. I’m constantly back and forth on what to do. Right now, I currently feel like a heartworm pill is lesser of the 2 evils. I had a dog get heart worms, and it was not pretty. I can’t imagine putting another dog through that. 😢
@@meagan_g i agree with you. I mean, I know there is information out there and at the end of the day I just do with my dogs the same as my children. I try to do the best over the top healthiest etc etc and find in all of this the devil is in the details. I get so caught up with making an informed decision that I never move forward 🤷🏼♀️👀🥩🦁🙄 which heartworm prevention do you use???
@@JoyfulJenn I feel you on that. Sometimes you have to make a decision for survival reasons. Currently I have my pup on Simparica Trio (I know that’s not a fan fav) but so far I’ve had no issues and I monitor him very closely. He’s been on it for 6 years. He is a 120 lb lab so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. I had a 4 lb yorkie that was on heart guard because I felt like simparica was too much for him. I do different things for different dogs. We’re all eating fruits and veggies with pesticides. We all just do our best to survive this crazy world!
@@meagan_g but you won't know the damage done right away from Simparica which is widely thought to be too toxic. Check back in five years and see how it's going. NO we are not all eating pesticides on produce, grow your own and shop at markets, co-ops, and get organic as ways to prevent chemicals.
What about Heartworm prevention, is that also a pesticide and is there something else we can do for prevention?
Rachel has had another video with Dr. Judy. Her protocol is to do routine annual/semi-annual heartworm testing, none 😮 (yes, none!) of the monthly preventatives like Heartgard or Interceptor and the rest. She uses mosquito deterrents. Now take that advice and please do more research. If your dog(s) may have greater risk, maybe do the conventional recommendation of a monthly preventative and an annual or semi-annual heartworm test. Some areas are higher risk than others. Don't think because Dr. Judy skips the monthly preventative that you automatically should too. She is a vet! If her dogs come down with heartworms, she can treat at her cost. You will be paying whatever your vet charges clients. Heartworms are nothing to take lightly. Treatment is possible but not always successful. Heartworms are misery and highly fatal. Maybe Dr. Judy lives somewhere with lower risk. If unsure, do the monthly preventative and an annual hw test.
In some areas like the US South heartworm prevelance in dogs is crazy! Many dogs get heartworms. Typically sadly these dogs that get hw's are outdoors and often neglected. Your dog may be well groomed and mostly indoors. But all it takes to get heartworms is mosquito exposure. Be careful. ❤

Dr. Karen Becker talks about if you have to give heartworm giving milk thistle for a week after to detox their liver. If you search in TH-cam you can find videos on it. I just started back up with heartworm since Spring is starting and used the milk thistle.
My dog had cysteine stones and had emergency bladder surgery. My vet urged me to neuter him and put him on a prescription diet. He is a raw fed dog his entire life. I gave him one bowl of Science Diet and he threw up and had diarrhea after one meal. I researched cysteine stones and the recommendation of neutering him kept coming up. I neutered him and fingers crossed his urine samples have showed no signs of stones. I’m grateful to the vets for saving my dog, but I will never listen to them when it comes to nutrition.
My Shih Tzu had to have bladder stone surgery. She hasn't been the same since. She can't jump on the couch anymore, and I have to lift her up and down all day. At least she hasn't gotten any more stones. Without the surgery I'm sure she would have died, but I'm disappointed that it's left her somewhat disabled.
Yet, we give multiple different antigens to babies and kids throughout their childhood as part of the vaccine schedule., a great concern.
I started puppy shots at 6 month's old. And she will be almost 8 months old when she gets her rabies shot, i dont like giving shots at such a young age. I didn't want to give any at all, but of course, it is a law to give them the rabies shot.
What do you recommend for fleas?
This is what works for me! www.amazon.com/shop/rachelcarafusaro/list/10VOLO1Z15CWL?linkCode=spc&tag=rachelcarafusaro-20&domainId=influencer&asc_contentid=amzn1.ideas.10VOLO1Z15CWL
You must appease the flea gods with a sacrifice and dance. 😂
Am obviously joking! 😅
Just see Rachel's link 🙂
Fleas!! I can’t seem to get rid of them!!😢 help plz💜🙏💕
My vet didn't recommend flea/tick treatment for my puppy. Not a lot of grass in NM so it is unnecessary.
it would be nice but when you’re required to license the dog regular rabies is required. Plus I have to board my dog when traveling and proof of annual shots are required.
I can understand your challenge as it is echoed by many. I respect others paths, but personally, will not vaccinate other than rabies for any reason. It is sometimes difficult to find natural groomers, & dog sitters that don't require vaccinated dogs but it is possible.
Also I don't bring my dog to places dog parks that require said licenses. I need to have peace of mind regarding the care I give my dog.
In contrast, my ignorance in the past gave me peace of mind when I adhered to The conventional vet care for my pets. But sadly lost several pets to cancer because I didn't know any better. I believe
We're all doing the best we can with our current awareness and I wish you well on your path.
I've given my dog trifexis for 6 yrs now since she was 6 months and no problems . How can you not treat your dogs for heartworm preventative ? Rabies is by law.
My dogs are all on monthly tick and heartworm medication. We live where there is massive paralysis ticks and mosquitoes that carry heartworm. I have lost one dog to paralysis tick and saved another two ( barely) I really don’t know what else to do.
I use a natural spray Kin and kind has a good one
In the past, this doctor has recommended using the brand interceptor if you absolutely have to use medication's. I understand it. If you live in a place where there's a high risk of these diseases caused by mosquitoes, etc. it does feel like you were caught between a rock and a hard place. Also, I'll use Springtime garlic tablets. Can you look into that? Also, that is an option.
If you feed him some Brewer's/nutritional yeast, it exudes something through the skin that deters biting insects, and helps a lot with heavy infestations.
I used to give it to my Newfoundland, and she had a serious flea allergy, and the only side effect is increased energy and a healthier coat, as it is full of B vitamins.
I've given it to many dogs since with great results.
Do you have winters?
@@Keyspoet27 awesome info. Didn't know this. Thank you.
So I’m in Canada my vet tells me every 3 months for bravecto I hate giving my dogs all these chemicals are they necessary is their another alternative?
What about monthly oral heartworm prevention?
I'm of the it's not good
Taking my dog to CO for a couple of days where there are deer. I’m going to keep him out of long grass. Is there something natural I can wipe him down with to kill fleas or ticks? Vinegar and water? Or, something else. Thanks.
My puppy was dx with collapsing trachea at 12 weeks old & bulgy heart. She was put on steroids and benadryl for months, then weaned off to try hydrocodone, which she had a scary reaction to, so discontinued it.
She just had a rabies shot at 7 1/2 months & was lethargic, as expected, then vomiting lost control of her bladder & was shaky. Now it's a week after the shot & she is still struggling and is only 9 lb. I never want her to have another vax, I just hope she gets through this. I live in the adk mtns in nys & all vax are mandatory , esp rabies. Could I get a bealth pass or something? The vet also dx her with allergies just before the shot was given. 😢
They are putting mmrna in some of the jabs and so people need to avoid those. BTW, my vet only has a DP vax that is thimerisol-frree and mmrna-frree. But I got one a at almost 11 wees and thoought that would do but he wants to do a boosterr. Should I get a titerr at 16 weeks?
Well, too spent 136 for the k9 advantix, and I never had a problem . Why scare people
I live in Tampa and right now mosquitoes are just insane.. i just took my 11 week old goldendoodle baby to the vet; they sent me home to start him with Simapatica trio but lm concern with all this info..

Instead of the flea medicine, just use heartworm prevention and go natural on the flea prevention. That’s what I’m doing this summer! Wish me luck! I am afraid of fleas, but I’m more afraid of poisoning my dog.
@@93denisechavez the best thing you can do is to keep your dog as healthy as possible and feed him/her a species appropriate diet. Fleas and parasites are not as attracted to healthy animals. Also conventional flea and tick treatments are not always effective and don’t actually kill the adult fleas. Several of them like Sentinel don’t even stop fleas from landing on your pet or biting or attaching to your pet. They kill the future larvae. There are natural sprays, shampoos, powders, etc that are pretty effective at repelling fleas so they don’t bother your pet or your yard.
Do your own research. Don’t base decisions on one source. Heart worm can be deadly.
I just took my GS pup 10wk old for the 2nd parvo shot and got the prevention of the same TRIO stuff .. They gave ot to her Ughh looked that up that stuff is horrible..
DE food grade for fleas n parasites
I feed my shitzpoo for 15 years already chicken bones, cartillage, coconut oil, flax seeds, carrots and sometimes turkey. She refuses all non- organic food.
The concept of being natural is good, but it doesn't work in reality. Dogs need to be protected. I haven't had good experience with holistic vet. They cost more and didn't help my dog at all. I switched to a regular vet, my dog gets healthy and happy.
Agree, when you have a healthy dog holistic does’t hurt. As soon as they get sick we run to the traditional vet 😊
