Favorite holistic veterinarian and Q & A

Dr. Karen Becker answers questions from people like us who need help. I love this video! She talks about how to know what is good, how some companies can be bad, and why vets do not recommend a homemade raw. She talks about both cats and dogs and I find this video so interesting! 

Dr. Becker has written books on health, food, longevity, and so much more useful info for all of us pet owners!
She discusses what is good and what is not good for your pet. She tells us to stay away from anything in the onion family when it comes to veggies for cats. Cats do not normally need fiber like this but for those that do love fibrous foods, this is good info to know!

There is so much to learn when it comes to feeding our pets. However, you know what is good and bad for us to eat and it is the same thing. You just learn as you go and try not to make mistakes. There is a saying "balance over time" when it comes to feeding a proper raw diet to pets. Just like in humans, we may not eat a balanced meal each time but we fill in the gaps and seem to survive just fine. You can do the same for your pets if you miss a daily requirement one day but feed it the next couple of days. This works and you will find how to make the puzzle pieces all fit as you go.

Look up Dr Becker's youtube cannel (or her barkandwhiskers website and follow her if you are interested in feeding fresh pet food! I can only think of one other vet that I love and that is someone that Dr Becker followed before she even became a veterinarian herself. Now she has been a partner with him for many years!

​That is Dr. Mercola and she mentions him and their partnership in this video.  

Dr Becker left Mercola

UPDATE: Dr Becker is no longer partnered with Mercola, for more info about her, please visit her website. I totally believe it worth reading about her and her studies.
