Nature provides everything necessary to maintain a healthy body. There are many safe alternatives to chemical treatment that produce exceptional results for chronic or non-urgent ailments. 

During meditation, I connect with Source energy and visualize the condition, behavior or ailment. I ask to be shown a solution and receive the answer in the form of images and/or words. Sometimes these solutions are well-known basic remedies, such as herbs or other items from the earth. There are also inexpensive remedies that may be found in the home or obtained at the supermarket. I have used several simple remedies with my own dogs with great success. An example of one such instance:  adding raw garlic in the twice-daily feeding of a nursing dog to eliminate roundworms in her puppies. Garlic is offensive to worms and creating an inhospitable environment, causing the worms to immediately “vacate the premises.” Within one week, the worms were gone—without the use of chemicals. 

Often there is too much emphasis on finding the “quick fix” for our animal companions, and we lose sight of what is truly best for their overall wellbeing. Sometimes natural solutions may require a little more time and patience, yet they can be a more respectful and caring method of treating your animal. You honor the animal when you concern yourself with its total health.

I experienced a situation with a five-month-old puppy that had developed Demodectic (localized) mange, a parasitic infection in the hair follicle that causes hair loss, inflammation and itchiness. The prescribed treatment, or “quick fix,” was to add large doses of Ivermectin (a poison that kills parasites) to her meals. I saw this as literally poisoning her, and  I could not bring myself to do it. After conducting my own research on mange, which results from a weakness in the immune response to fight off the parasite, I chose a much safer solution: I applied a natural lavender mixture daily to every area of mange to keep it in check. I fed her wholesome foods and added certain vitamins to boost the immune system. The final part of the solution was simply to be patient. As she matured, so did her immune system. The mange was gone by the time she turned eight months old.

Putting chemicals into your animal’s body for the sake of precaution or routine is not a good enough reason to do it. If a chemical must be given, be certain of the reason and weigh the expected outcome against the possible risk, such as side effects. As described above, some treatments contain poisons to eliminate parasites. The low vibration of the poison is sure to drop the vibration of your otherwise healthy animal. Also, certain vaccination protocols have been proven to cause immune-related disorders in many animals.
