Ensure that your Pet Lives a Long, Healthy Life
Today, breeders are in serious demand to create pets with certain looks and characteristics. Both cats and dogs have been faced with inbreeding and genetic tinkering, that has changed our pet's natural capability to cure and maintain their contentment. In this piece, we intend to target the area where we have the most control.
The poor quality nutrition in the current day's pet foods and treats, along with excessive vaccinations, chemical bath washings and toxic medications suppress our pets from the actual opportunity to reach their healthy life potential.
Too common today with our pets is premature ageing. We have accepted the shortened guessed lifespan of our cats and dogs. The question then turns up whether we, the average pet owner, can make choices for our animals that may reverse this alarming trend.
Dr. Lisa S. Newman, N.D, PH.D, owner of Azmira Holistic Animal Center, is quoted as asserting, "Cats once capable of simply reaching the age of 25 now are seen as "seniors" at the age of six. Dogs die even younger, only living to be eleven when they should reach 15 and even 20 years of age for small breeds. My horses average 30 years in life, my pussies have lived well in to their twenties and my large breed Rottweiler lived to fifteen, one to even sixteen years of age. Most critically, they lived terribly healthy lives, not lives ruled by dis-ease."
Doctor. Newman has was extremely successful using her holistic way of living system which includes, detox, high nutritional pet food, herbal and homeopathic cures, exercise and proper communication and care. Why then, can't all pet owners have the success that Doctor. Newman has had in caring for her pets?
Awareness and Education
Awareness and education could be the solution.. One area of awareness to check is pet food and the pet food industry. It's become increasingly clear in this billion-dollar industry that stock prices are way more critical than true nutrition. You can understand why the average pet owner would innocently buy inadequate and infrequently damaging pet food.
Marketing campaigns are smartly designed to pull at our heartstrings. It's hard to credit that these companies basically put little cash in the nutritional value of the pet food compared with the millions spent on promoting. We see our pets as true members of the family, so we want to be educated on the ingredients that we our feeding them.
Just as you would not feed your youngster a Large Mac and fries for breakfast, lunch and dinner your pet wants your assistance in making healthy choices for their perfect health. If we knew the beef used in many pet foods was from sick and decomposing animals, we would doubtless think carefully about feeding it to our beloved pet. Education is essential. We want to do our homework and analyze the ingredients on the products we give to our pets because they are solely depending on us for their welfare. When you see a sappy commercial with some lovable small puppies that tugs at your heartstrings and have the need to buy that brand for your pet, you might want to read what exactly the maker is putting in the food. Unfortunately, the corporations that have the best commercials often have the worst food for your pet.
The base line is if we love our pets so much, why don't we make the effort to research what we are putting in their bodies. If we probably did do the research, we would find out why more and more cats and dogs are dying of cancer. Why their lifespan has shortened and why more pets have developed conditions like allergies and arthritis - to name a couple. Some pet owners will spends hundreds on clothing and chew toys per month, but then say they cannot afford to buy high quality pet food.
So if extending the life of our pets is our main goal, one main area we need to look at is their nutrition. We would find out that we have some control of our pet's well-being and health. Slowly, we can turn the tables and start increasing the lifespan of our pets, not decreasing it.
