Customer Review: An eye opening education into improving your pets quality of life
This book was recommended by my Aunt who owns a terrier breed. After following the advice in Dr. Pitcairn's book the change in her dog was amazing. His coat is no longer dark and oily but bright and shiny, small sores on his back are gone, his breathe is fresh and the energy that he displays makes him look like a puppy again. I am finishing up the last chapters in the book and look forward to feeding my dogs and cats well balanced, healthy, and tasty meals. With a Labrador, whippet mix, and a bulldog as pets, vet bills can get out of hand and I have noticed that at age eight, my Labrador is acting old despite healthy recreation. I firmly believe the by following Dr. Pitcairn's easy to follow recipes, I will see a significant change in my pet's health. I would strongly recommend that any one with a pet to cares about their health and wants to see them live longer and with significantly less vet bills. If you are one of the millions that believe high quality pet food or vet recommended brands are good for your pet, think again and read this book. You will be shocked to learn that there is a complete void in government regulation in the manufacturing of pet foods and labeling laws are nearly non-existent leaving our pets to the mercy of big corporations that put profits ahead of our pet's health.
