For Dr. Pitcairn's Referral List -- to find a Homeopathic Veterinarian:
"Our own referral list from Animal Natural Health Center is of our most active students. Those listed have been selected by Dr. Pitcairn. All have been trained by him in our year long Professional Course in Veterinary Homeopathy, a classically-based, tested approach to homeopathy. In addition, some of the veterinarians on our list have either attended our 78-hour Advanced Course and/or have achieved AVH certification (which involves coursework, case approval and examination and requires adherence to a classical approach to homeopathy). A number of veterinarians on our list also consult regularly with Dr. Pitcairn in a supervisory capacity. Many, but not all, are members of the Academy of Veterinary Homeopathy (see below). Many will consult with clients by phone, usually in coordination with your local veterinarian for backup. However, you may very well find that someone on the list is in driving distance, which is usually your best choice. To see the ANHC list, click here: Animal Natural Health Center Referrals."
Complementary & Alternative Veterinary Medicine
There are several directories with listings by state of veterinarians who specialize in various healing modalities. As with any organization, some professionals are better than others. It's always good to get a recommendation from satisfied clients. Trust your feelings and if in doubt, get a second opinion.
The American Academy of Veterinary Acupuncture
"The American Academy of Veterinary Acupuncture (AAVA) is a not-for-profit organization, formed in 1998 in response to the re-structuring of the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society (IVAS). In 1974 a group of forward-thinking veterinarians founded IVAS. Over the years IVAS has grown to become a truly international organization, and the AAVA was formed to meet the specific needs of American veterinary acupuncturists. The AAVA is an affiliate organization, and is fully recognized by IVAS."

Dr. Pitcairn's site "...many well-qualified veterinarians around the country who practice homeopathy. Many of these are also knowledgeable in nutrition and chiropractic – modalities that work well with homeopathy...
There are two referral lists that you can use. The first is our own list of homeopathic veterinarians, all of whom have been trained through the educational programs of the Animal Natural Health Center. Animal Natural Health Center Referrals.
...The Academy of Veterinary Homeopathy members of the organization indicate that they want to be listed as a referral and any interested veterinarian may join.

Many years ago I'd read of an informal study conducted
indicating that 'water scenes' promote healing --
hospitalized patients who had any type of 'water scene'
hanging on the wall got better faster than those who had any other 'scene'.
"Looking Glass Falls is one of the most photographed and
often visited waterfalls in the Pisgah National Forest --
the mountains of Western North Carolina. It is about 60 feet high."

A Story Ignored for Six Years
"The rendering plant floor is piled high with "raw product." Thousands of dead dogs and cats; heads and hooves from cattle, sheep, pigs and horses; whole skunks; rats and raccoons -- all waiting to be processed. In the 90-degree heat, the piles of dead animals seem to have a life of their own as millions of maggots swarm over the carcasses.... " Excerpted from "The Dark Side of Recycling" from the fall 1990 issue of Earth Island Journal.
A Look Inside a Rendering Plant by GS "Rendering has been called "the silent industry." Each year in the US, 286 rendering plants quietly dispose of more than 12.5 million tons of dead animals, fat and meat wastes. As the public relations watchdog newsletter PR Watch observes, renderers "are thankful that most people remain blissfully unaware of their existence."

Emergency Management: Choking: The Heimlich Maneuver
by Diana Scorpio DVM and Mico Nelson
"Dogs in general are notorious for swallowing just about anything that will fit in their mouths. Some items may become lodged in the throat, blocking the airway, which may cause the animal to suffocate. In most cases, a dog will cope with choking by reflexively throwing up. Usually, this is sufficient to clear the airway."
"Many dogs will gag or choke or rawhide bone that they have managed to chew off a piece from. These can usually be pulled from the back of the mouth when you see them gagging."

Non-Profit Animal Blood Bank - Plus ... for Laboratory blood tests on basic tests and full-panel thyroid tests. Also, tests for the vaccine antibody titers for parvo, distemper, and rabies are available. Other tests such as Lyme are also available. Just add on a heartworm test for a nominal cost. So, your companion animal can simply be tested instead of just giving unnecessary, and some say harmful vaccinations. The fees for the blood analysis are very reasonable and results are promptly reported. Plus, you'll be contributing to the data that Dr. Dodds is collecting for her studies.

This is a MUST - SEE Web Site!
"The International Veterinary Acupuncture Society (IVAS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting excellence in the practice of veterinary acupuncture as an integral part of the total veterinary health care delivery system. The Society endeavors to establish uniformly high standards of veterinary acupuncture through its educational programs and accreditation examination. IVAS seeks to integrate veterinary acupuncture and the practice of western veterinary science, while also noting that the science of veterinary acupuncture does not overlook allied health systems, such as homeopathy, herbology, nutrition, chiropractic, kinesiology, etc."
"It does not matter whether medicine is old or new, so long as it brings about a cure. It matters not whether theories be eastern or western, so long as they prove to be True."
