A Story Paints a Picture, Don’t It?
This isn’t going to be one of my “raw feeding” or “pesticides cause harm” type posts, I’m just warning you up front. As the listed categories for this post imply, this is going to be a storytelling, faith-based post – you’ve been notified! It’s a “story paints a picture” thing. The question BEGS why would I do that on a canine naturopathy oriented blog? Because this is my life now and I realized completely today that I no longer can keep them even remotely separate. Keep what...

read moreSame Species Different Personalities
Right now I have two dogs. Both are American breeds. Both are, of course, canine carnivores – Canis lupus familiaris. (The domestic dog is a member of genus Canis that forms part of the wolf-like canids, and is the most widely abundant carnivore. Information extracted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog). I had to stress CARNIVORE lol. While they are both the same species with the same genus and same species needs, they are vastly different in their personalities. Schatzie, my female Carolina Dog has a thick, luxurious coat (much...
read moreLifestyle Not Method
Since I began this naturopathic journey my passion has been to share and teach on LIFESTYLE. As my previous newsletters, blog posts, articles, videos and audios have all stated naturopathy is ALL about LIFESTYLE not about a method. My dog Shadrach led me to this lifestyle and I’ve been moving forward with it ever since and sharing with as many as will receive this truth. In fact, because of doing all of this for Shadrach, my husband and I began to reap major benefits ourselves. I was able to release weight as well as receive...
read moreEMFs and Our Dogs’ Health
This topic caught my attention years ago – way before mainstream was taking a nod in this direction. Sometimes I hate that I can see things in advance because it takes a while before people don’t think you’re so crazy anymore lol. But all kidding aside, this is a very serious topic: EMFs (electromagnetic fields) and the health of our dogs. When I first began using the available “protection” ten years ago, they were big, clunky, unappealing, and VERY expensive but at least effective to a degree. Additionally, most...
read moreVibrant Health for our Dogs
Recently I was thinking back into my “why” for beginning this journey into natural health – for animals and us. Of course as I’ve shared so many times it began with my amazing dog Shadrach. He helped me learn for his sake. I had to learn to let go of the fear of change that was locking us into a cycle of illness and also frustration with it all. My desire was and is VIBRANT health for my dogs! The interesting thing is that my journey began in earnest because of my deep desire to help Shadrach. In the process of that I...
read moreUnderstanding Wellness
“If you look at healthcare today, it’s all about disease. It’s not about understanding wellness at all.” ~Leroy Hood In a recent short article I wrote I was focusing on the difference of the common “health” mindset in our country (possibly the world at this point). I put quotation marks around the word “health” because we have somehow gotten it all skewed to be synonymous with the word “disease” rather than wellness. As I was watching someone I consider a “mentor” on...
read moreKibble IS the Worst No Matter the Label
We all know we shouldn’t eat processed junk food, but we all do it. I eat very little in the way of processed food because in my home we prefer to adhere to God’s laws of health and eat as fresh, organic and natural foods as possible. We do the same for our dogs as for us. We did an Animal Talk Naturally show on February 19, 2014 entitled, “Worst Dog Foods?” (see the audio attached to this post). It was titled with irony of course because to us, ALL kibble is the worst! God originally placed us AND the animals in a...
read moreNutrition for our CARNIVORE companions
Rather than write a very long post, I have two audio-videos here from our two latest podcasts on Animal Talk Naturally…yes videos of each edited show with just a photo. This ongoing push to force our carnivore companions to become something they are not isn’t something that we can just sit by and not say a word about. It is so wrong on so many levels. Seems to be a pervasive thing in this country too. Carnivore Companions: Conscious Feeding, Pt1 Carnivore Companions: Conscious Feeding, Pt2 Until next time… Have a...
read moreTrust is the Cornerstone of the Laws of Health
Trust. We all want it. We all desire to be trustworthy. It’s not by accident this is probably the most critical part of all the laws of health. All the previous laws of health: nutrition, exercise, pure water, sunshine, moderation, fresh air, and rest hinge upon this one thing: trust. ALL of the components of maintaining and promoting health and wellness in our dogs build upon and depend upon all the others and that requires trusting them regardless of what things appear to be like on the surface. “Trust is the glue of life....
