We tailor our vaccine programs to your pet's specific needs. Different lifestyles require different types of protection. In addition to traditional vaccines, we offer vaccine Nosodes, which are an oral homeopathic alternative. 

ON  VACCINATING YOUR PET

 

For years, the standard of care has been vaccinating your pet every year.  There is now some very convincing evidence that this may not only be unnecessary, but may be harmful to your pet.

 

HEALTH RISKS TO OVER-VACCINATING

 

In dogs:  chronic diarrhea, food sensitivities, allergies, seizures, coughing, gagging, skin, ear and eye infections, and certain behavioral problems

 

In cats:   same reactions as in dogs, but also including kidney failure, abnormal grooming behaviors and hyperthyroidism

 

PROTECTING YOUR PET WITHOUT GIVING THE VACCINES

 

The latest evidence indicates that the immunity gained from puppy and kitten shots may last for the lifetime of the pet and there is no need for additional vaccines.  Most of the diseases we vaccinate against are seen primarily in young animals and not in healthy adults.  The best way to keep your pet free of disease is to keep it’s general health good so that it’s immune system will be able to fight the diseases it is exposed to.  Ask us about diet and other ways to keep your pet in optimal health.

 

Nosodes:

These are homeopathic oral vaccines that will offer protection without the potential side effects of traditional vaccines.  Please know that certain boarding kennels and groomers will require proof of annual vaccinations and may not accept the nosodes, and that city governments will still require proof of Rabies vaccination in order to license your pet.

 

Vaccine Detox formula:

We also offer a vaccine detox formula that you can take home with you to give to your pet before and after the vaccine is given to help the body rid itself of the harmful toxins of the vaccine.  The detox formula does not erase the vaccine from the body but helps the body heal and rejuvenate itself.  It comes in a liquid formula and is given three times a day.

 

Titer Tests:

The final option in deciding how best to protect your pet is to measure the actual level of protection your pet currently has.  If your pet already has enough antibodies against a certain disease, there is no need to worry about further protection.  This is done with a blood test to measure antibody levels.

 

 

We will work with you to find the program that best suites your pet.

 

Nosodes - An alternative to vaccines

The is much evidence now available that vaccines can cause some of the chronic diseases that we see in dogs and cats. These include skin disease and allergies autoimmune disease, kidney failure and even seizures. Vaccine products can disrupt the normal balance in the body, thus decreasing the body’s natural ability to fight disease.

We now offer a much safer alternative to vaccines called nosodes. These are an oral vaccine that protects your animal against disease without the potential side affects of traditional vaccines.

Important facts to know about nosodes

 1. Nosodes are not FDA tested or approved. There is much clinical evidence as to their efficacy, but documented research statistics are not available.

2. Nosodes may not be honored by boarding kennels and groomers. You should check with these places if you take your pet there to be sure they will accept the nosode as an alternative vaccine.

3. There is a nosode for rabies—it is not, however, legally accepted for licensing. Unless you can convince your licensing agency to accept the nosode, you will need to get the traditional rabies vaccine. We do have a homeopathic remedy available that will lessen the negative effects of the vaccine. (Lyssin)

The cost of nosodes

There is a treatment schedule with increasing potencies of the nosode given over about a six week time frame. One dose is then given annually for continual protection.

For each disease the cost of the initial regime is $34.00; the cost of the annual treatment is $10.00. This is nearly the same cost with much less risk to your pet.

Nosodes are given in increasing potencies of 30C, 200C and 1M according to the following schedule:

• 30C  -  1 dose every 12 hours for 1 week

• Wait 2 weeks

• 200C  -  1 dose every 24 hours for 5 days

• Wait 1 month

• 1M  -  1 dose initially and repeat annually for ongoing protection
