Hello and Welcome to my blog, Best Pet Vitamins.  The purpose of this blog is too enrich our knowledge and education of how to properly care for our pets.  Our pets are ”our” responsibility and nobody else`s.  Especially not our Vets!!  In fact, we should be doing all we can to prevent our pets from having to see a Vet.  There are only two reasons why we need to see a Vet.  Either our pets need there vaccines or they are sick or injured.   

For the most part, the latter can be prevented.  There are things that we, as pet owners, can do to prevent our pets from serious harm or getting sick.  As for vaccines, well that I will discuss on another blog.  One of the things that we can do to help our pets stay healthy is too feed them the right food.  At my other website, Pamper Pet Care, I have devoted one page to providing healthy food choices for our pets by making our own pet food.   Trust me it is not as hard as it sounds.  I have hundreds of homemade dog and cat food that you can easily make yourself using grocery bought ingredients.  You may view our ebook selection at our site.

The other way  is to provide high quality supplements or vitamins.

Dog vitamins are a great way to supplement your dog`s diet and increase your dog`s health.  You might think, this is absurd, why would I give my dog vitamins. Giving your dog vitamins and supplements will help assure a long healthy life. If your dog has low energy or other health problems you should consider dog vitamins.

Some of the benefits of giving vitamins to your pets would be:

 1.Dog vitamins are known to cure, or help reduce the symptoms of many dog related health problems.

2.Are a great way to keep your dog healthy, happy, and increase your dog`s life span, and enjoyment of life.

3.Save on Vet bills because your pet will stay healthy longer.

 Dog vitamins and Dog supplements are dosages of extra nourishment added to the food that your dogs and cats consume daily to make up for their deficiency and strengthen their whole body system.  Dog vitamins are an effective way to ensure your dog is getting his or her daily quota of vitamins. However Dog vitamins and supplements cannot make up for poor quality food or inadequate exercise. While almost all dogs will benefit from some form of vitamin or nutritional supplement, there are situations where dog vitamins are actually required in order to prevent or treat ill health.  

Just like our everyday foods that are rich in nutrients, dog vitamins and dog supplements are also important to provide extra digestive assistance which is beneficial for all pets especially when they are suffering from illnesses, allergies or being old.  Not unlike humans, the daily intake may not always be met and that`s when it`s important to consider dog vitamins.  Keep in mind that dog vitamins and supplements are an important part of a dog’s complete nutritional needs.  So remember to always provide dog vitamins and dog supplements to your pets.

While most nutritionists and veterinarians believe that feeding a dog a balanced diet is critical to meet its requirement of nutrients, dog vitamins provide that extra oomph when something is lacking in their daily diet. Any of the following ingredients are beneficial in holistic treats:  Human-grade ingredients Organic flaxseed oil Vegetables: carrots, green beans, zucchini Fruits: apples, blueberries and bananas Barley, oatmeal Honey Peanut butter While a holistic diet including natural dog vitamins and ingredients is healthy, there are foods dogs cannot eat. 

Organic oats and barley are healthy grains that possess natural dog vitamins like E and B.  Meat by-products: animal parts that are not meat, such as kidneys and intestines do not have a high level of natural dog vitamins.  While most nutritionists and veterinarians believe that feeding a dog a balanced diet is critical to meet its requirement of nutrients, dog vitamins provide that extra oomph when something is lacking in their daily diet.

The key with vitamin supplements, though, is that they support and encourage a healthy system, so any results you can actually see may be quite gradual.  Your dog deserves the benefits of dog health supplements.  Not only can dogs enjoy the benefits of using pet tabs pet vitamins and supplements, but cats can as well.  Dog vitamins and Dog supplements are dosages of extra nourishment added to the food that your dogs and cats consume daily to make up for their deficiency and strengthen their whole body system.  Pet supplements when added to the food will help their bodies and immune systems to achieve the nutrition they need.  Therefore, it is extremely beneficial to give them pet vitamins and supplements daily to have a healthy living.

In this blog you will hear alot about Dr. Andrew Jones.  He is a practising Veterinarian in Nelson BC, Canada.  He believes in using natural and holistic approaches to pet health care.  I will be making references to his procedures and methods throughout my blogs.  Dr. Jones also sells products that are related to pet health care such as a high quality dog supplement, that I use for my beagle Lucy.  I have personally seen remarkable changes in Lucy since we started giving her the supplement. 

My intention here is not to try and just sell you “things”.  I will be honest with you and tell you that I do make a small commission when someone buys the supplement through my link but I believe that unless you try the product and see that it works, how can you recommend it to others?  Plus Dr. Jones has a great quarantee on the product too.  So why not check it out?  I am convinced that you or your pet will not regret it.

Thank you for reading my first blog and I really look forward to hearing any comments that you may have.  As a matter of fact why not tell us about your pet.  We would love to hear about him or her.

This is a swine flu update from Pet Peoples Place.

Swine Flu Confirmed In Iowa Cat
Schaumburg, Illinois

An Iowa cat is confirmed as having contracted H1N1 influenza virus (swine flu), in the first case of a domestic cat or dog being diagnosed with the virus.

Iowa state officials confirmed on Wednesday morning that the first case of swine flu infecting a cat had been discovered. It is believed that the 13-year-old indoor cat caught the virus from someone living in the same household who had also been infected. The cat was treated at the Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center at Iowa State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, and is now expected to make a full recovery.

“Two of the three members of the family that owns the pet had suffered from influenza-like illness before the cat became ill,” said IDPH Public Health Veterinarian, Dr. Ann Garvey. “This is not completely unexpected, as other strains of influenza have been found in cats in the past.”

Before Wednesday’s news, only humans, pigs, birds and ferrets had been diagnosed with swine flu. Two weeks ago we reported that a ferret in Oregon had been diagnosed with swine flu after catching it from a person in the same household. Because the swine flu virus contains genetic elements of human, pig and avian flu viruses, it had seemed very unlikely that this strain would have the ability to infect hosts which are not humans, pigs or birds. Now that a ferret and a cat have been been confirmed as being infected, it would seem just as likely that dogs may become susceptible. The implications of this finding are that domestic animals which are susceptible to influenza A viruses could not only catch Swine Flu from their owners but could also transmit the virus to them. Veterinarians are also concerned that cats and dogs have lower inherent immunity to flu viruses than other species that are frequently infected by influenza viruses.

“Indoor pets that live in close proximity to someone who has been sick are at risk and it is wise to monitor their health to ensure they aren’t showing signs of illness,” said Dr. David Schmitt, State Veterinarian for Iowa.

All the more reason to get our pets healthy fast.

If you’ve ever had a pet become seriously ill, or die, – then you’ve probably experienced a tonne of guilt around it.

You may ask yourself, why did this happen to my pet?  What could I have done to prevent it?  Or was this my fault?  Well take comfort in the fact that you probably had nothing to do with it.  Its not your fault.

YOU are taking direction from the ‘Conventional’ Animal health care industries.  Which all advise the following:

1. Vaccinate often and with many components..  The MORE vaccines the drug companies sell, the
more profit they make.   I am sure that the Vaccine Companies are LOVING  the Swine Flu hysteria…

Vaccines also get clients in the door- and for Veterinarians, clients are what makes their business, so they are RELUCTANT to have you vaccinate less but the Vaccines can cause a whole host of medical problems, including Cancer.

2. Pill pushers…We are conditioned to take a ‘pill’ whenever we are ill.  And the Pharmaceutical Industry LOVES that.

Hence you go to your Vet- your dog or cat will most likely leave with either an injection of some type…or a pill.  YET these pills often have some pretty serious side effects..such as liver failure from  conventional anti-inflammatories.
There are a huge number of alternatives-from acupressure to homeopathy, BUT you aren’t told about them.

3. Diet..  You are BOMBARDED with advertising to encourage your pet to eat some carbohydrate loaded, toxin
laddened, dry dog or cat kibble.

Many of the Pet Food Companies are LARGE multinational corporations- their GOAL is  to MASS produce pet food, and PROFIT.  You are TOLD to feed this – in spite of  the fact that many of these foods have serious heath side effects. The classic ones are diabetes, and urinary tract disease in cats eating dry, carbohydrate loaded kibble.

Cats NEED Animal Protein to survive and thrive.  YET most of the commercial cat foods contain carbs, such as corn, as the FIRST ingredient.  It is easy to see the fallacy in this when you make a comparison to your own diet.  NOT all nutrition can come in a bag.

NUTRIENTS don’t  survive for months on the shelf.  IF you want to live longer, and avoid disease, you need to eat nutrient RICH foods- FRESH fruits and vegetables..NOT only packaged material and take in vitamins.

The same logic applies to your dog or cat.  You MUST feed a variety, and supplement their diet through vitamins and minerals, IF they are to thrive and ultimately fight off diseases- such as cancer.  MUCH of the information that you hear about keeping your pet healthy, and Treating disease is WRONG.

It’s not your fault, for you are doing what most of us do- and that is follow the direction of  the ‘Experts’  They are telling you to Vaccinate often, take the Conventional Medication, and Feed the Carbohydrate loaded, toxin laced Dry Kibble. 

BUT THE ARE WRONG!!!!  I am a firm believer that they need daily doses of pet vitamins and supplements which they do not get with commercial dog food.  So what can you do about it?

But  joining my newsletter, you can become part of an EMPOWERED community of dog and cat owners who are seeking better ways to keep their pets healthy and prevent disease.  And by linking to this blog or my website you will be taught how to properly care for your pets.

There your pets… heal them at home.
