REAL CURE. GENTLE CURE.
Maggie was in trouble. A urinary-tract infection had taken a sudden and devastating turn, and her kidneys edged toward total shutdown. An intensive course of antibiotic treatment failed to make a difference, and as the strong medication wreaked havoc on her stomach lining, Maggie quit eating altogether. Her vet offered little hope for recovery. Then the owner of the 11-year-old golden retriever tried a staple of holistic veterinary medicine: homeopathy.
Never mind that there's a lack of research showing that homeopathy works in humans, let alone animals. Many of a new breed—holistic vets—swear by it. Within a week of starting some homeopathics, plus a special diet and a concoction of herbs, goldenrod, nettles, dandelion, and protein, Maggie started to improve, owner Tracy Rose says. One year after Rose reached out in desperation to Wendy Volhard, a dog trainer and the senior author of the Holistic Guide for a Healthy Dog, Maggie is thriving.
"My vet was shocked," says Rose, of Culpeper, Va. Like a growing number of pet owners around the country, Rose is now a convert to holistic veterinary medicine, which advocates a natural diet, fewer vaccines and mainstream medicines, and such alternative therapies as homeopathy, acupuncture, chiropractic, and Reiki healing. "I use homeopathy for myself," says Rose. "Why not my dog?"
