TESTIMONIALS
My interest in starting the Animal Naturopath Training Program started when our loved dog, called Jasper became sick and I decided to approach a more natural way to give him and his sister a better way of living. And it has been a wonderful journey since I discovered this path, for the puppies as well for the whole family. L.LeT

An appalling act of cruelty occurred in North Wellington, where two individuals shot Ferdinand, a much-loved bull, multiple times with a crossbow.

The two men appeared in the Porirua District Court last week where they received permanent name suppression and were discharged without conviction.
The two men broke into a couples’ property and used a crossbow to fire three arrows at Ferdinand, hitting them in the stomach, neck and shoulder. Another arrow was fired at a steer.

Both animals were then left wounded and in pain until they were found the next day. Ferdinand had to be euthanised and the steer was left lame after developing an infection in the wound.

This case shows how little regard the justice system has for animals and their wellbeing.

We firmly believe that animals, as vulnerable members of our society, require a dedicated voice to represent their interests—an independent Commissioner for Animals. Just as New Zealand has Commissioners to advocate for the rights of children and the environment, animals deserve the same level of protection.

Please help us protect animals like Ferdinand the bull by adding your name to the petition for a Commissioner for Animals.

Thank you again for your unwavering dedication to animals and be a part of the change we all want to see. Join the call for a Commissioner For Animals. Sign the SAFE Petition today!

Its been a while! I am going through the process of eye surgery so it will still be a while. Have some jaw-dropping cases lately, one of which I hope to bring you shortly. After being recommended for euthanasia by a Specialist Veterinary group on the day of his visit and 3 weeks later is looking for his teddy to take to bed... he's 2 years old!
Also major revamp of product line and looking absolutely gorgeous (and EFFECTIVE) .... letter following.
Will be back late next week. Cheers, Sandy

If they die. we die

Millions of bees are dying – but in weeks, the EU could vote for a bill that could protect their habitat and restore life to our devastated lands and waters. Conservative politicians are siding with the pesticide industry to try and kill the bill – so we need to be louder! Let's show lawmakers in Europe and across the globe that people want them to give bees and nature a fighting chance to recover. Sign now and share with everyone!!!
ADD MY NAME
Dear friends,
Millions of bees are dying, and their homes are being devastated. But in weeks, the EU could vote for a bill that would protect their habitat and give bees and the nature they need a fighting chance to recover – creating a blueprint for other parts of the world.

Conservative politicians are siding with the pesticide industry and other powerful interests against a strong law. In conversations with parliamentarians, we're hearing that we might lose this fight – as politicians seem to think that people don't care about this issue.

What happens in Europe matters beyond the EU's borders. With bees under pressure across the globe, let's show our leaders how much we care!
Pass a strong law to save bees and their homes!
Bees and other pollinators are struggling because of toxic chemicals, because their habitats are being destroyed, because of droughts, the climate crisis, pollution, and more.

And it's not just bees: researchers are sounding the alarm, saying more than 75% of Earth's land areas are in poor condition. Our forests, rivers, and grasslands... it's all under pressure. That's why this ambitious bill, aimed at healing the lands and waters that have degraded, and restoring life to them, is such a game-changer!

MEPs are voting on this bill in the next weeks, and Germany and Spain are two of the key governments that can help us win! A global call joining voices from across Europe shows that wherever we are, we're watching their moves closely. So let's be hundreds of thousands, and we'll deliver our call right to crucial lawmakers in Brussels this month. And to brighten the deal for nature, we'll bring along bee-friendly wildflower seeds for every signature! Sign now:
Pass a strong law to save bees and their homes!
The Avaaz community has stood up for bees again and again. Our 5-million strong appeal to save the bees was one of the biggest in our history. For the forest birds, the grassland butterflies, the urban bees, and for the millions of people who call Europe home, let's go all-out and push the EU to move decisively towards a thriving natural world - connected to, rather than separated from us.

With fierce hope and determination,

Adela, Alice, Luis, Antonia, Isabella, Anneke, and the entire Avaaz team

I dont usually get 'political' about anything on FB but this is a concern that may extend to our animal friends. I have not included the coastline changes which are coming which may require you to pay to access the beaches and determine control over your dogs

Make no mistake, David Parker's replacement to the Resource Management Act will make resource consenting even harder. While Three Waters was about taking control of community assets — to put into centralized, co-governed entities — these bills are about taking control of planning laws and what you can do with your home, your property, or your farm — taking the control away from democratically elected councils to put them in 15 centralized, co-governed, so-called 'Regional Planning Committees'.

The effects will be dramatic. As a voter, you will no longer be able to hold to account the decision makers who will determine what you can produce on your farm, build on your property, or how your community is planned. The Federated Farmers and the Taxpayers' Union are no fans of the current Resource Management Act, but David Parker's new regime will make getting a resource consent much, much harder.

Unlike Three Waters, the Government isn't talking about these bills or making the public aware of what it is doing.

For those who like the healthy tech stuff...
FOODS WITH A THERAPEUTIC VALUE IN MODERN DISEASE MANAGEMENT

GREEN LIPPED MUSSEL
(Perna canaliculus)

Perna canaliculus is a species of green-lipped mussel grown commercially in the Marlborough Sounds in New Zealand. It is harvested at the peak of its growth curve. The soft tissue is separated from the shell, flash frozen, freeze dried to remove the water and processed into a fine powder. This process does not destroy the biologically active ingredients although in the writer’s view, there would be a preference for a cold pressed manufacture.

Inflammatory joint disease is a challenging area of therapeutic management in modern veterinary practice where there is a reliance on corticosteroids and NSAIDS.

The two pathways involved in the inflammatory process of particular interest are the
1. Cyclo-oxygenase (COX) and
2. Lipoxygenase pathways;

NSAIDS (Non steroidal anti inflammatories) block COX 1 and 2 activities. This is anti-inflammatory BUT also blocks the beneficial pathways and so cause platelets to stop clotting and gastric irritation like vomiting, ulceration and bleeding. The NSAID profile depends on the proportion of COX (1) and COX (2) activity. An example is the use of aspirin upon platelet aggregations, being a more potent inhibitor of COX 1 than COX 2. Veterinary studies demonstrate that a product may be much more specific for COX 2 but still present at the inflammatory site in sufficient concentration to inhibit COX 1, thus still causing some degree of side effects.

Recent research has shown that certain naturally occurring and novel eicosatetraenoic acids (ETAs) exhibit considerable anti inflammatory activity. Extracts of Green Lipped Mussel have shown to contain ETAs, which have effectively inhibited the 5-Liopxygenase (because they block leukotriene production) and inhibit prostaglandin production by COX (2) pathways. They do not appear to cause gastric intolerance (in fact there is evidence for a partial protective benefit)or affect platelet aggregation indicating that ETAs exhibit little if any COX (1) activity. Thus cold processed extracts of Perna canaculus have been shown to be more potent that aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen. When compared to other natural products, ETAs are between 200 to 350 times more potent that fish oils, other versions of green-lipped mussel extracts, evening primrose oil or flax oils.

Natural components with tin the Perna mussel support joint health by:
- Decreasing inflammatory response and pain
- Enhancing cartilage synthesis by the chondrocytes,
- Reducing the destruction of cartilage caused by degrading enzymes and free radicals.
- Modulating the immune responses to auto0immune response and pro imflannaotr cytokines.
- Veterinary studies of the effect of Cold Processed Extract upon joint mobility demonstrated
- All dogs improved
- No side effects in pre-existing conditions
- Response in elderly dogs demonstrated greater enthusiasm and mobility at exercise
- Some severely incapacitated dogs, under extended feeding regimes showed continuous improvement in joint mobility, allowing reduction of up to 25% in conventional treatment.
- Health in general, particularly the skin & coat improved dramatically.
- Palatability was a non-issue.
- Most effective in low-grade chronic joint stiffness. Elderly dogs had a return to normal activity from lying to standing position or walking.
- Overall 76% of rheumatoid and 70% of osteoarthritis patients benefited and improved.
- Significant improvements after one month.
- A quality of life improvement particularly in the ageing chronically lame horse. Effective in Spavin, fetlock knee and low grade discomfort.

For those interested in the gory stuff...

Is there any dog breed that can kill a hyena in a fight?

Dogs like Kangals, Alabais, Caucasian Shepherds could take striped Hyena,the brown Hyena and the Aardwolf Hyena.
But if we take the biggest and the strongest type of Hyena which is the spotted hyena…. they have NO CHANCE.
Females are more dominant than males, they are way bigger,heavier and stronger. They weigh up to 98–141lb and males weight up to 89–121lb.
I dont’t think many people realize the size of this beast! They have soo powerful bite force that an adult healthy Hyena could bite through a certain amount of steel.
Hyenas fight off Leopards and can also survive an attack from a male Lion, they tank the blows of Leopards as if its nothing, so I don’t think a dog could do anything to it, they have huge neck which is very protected wheres a dogs neck is very tiny and can be easily damaged.
Not only a Hyena is more durable and stronger than a dog but it’s also more fearless and more vicious, it’s hard to beat an animal thats on survival mode 24/7 while dogs get their food delivered.
Hyenas are also hated by the Lions, so if your being hated by the king of the jungle it means you are a big deal.
Only dog that has a big chance of beating a single hyena in a fight is a gray/timber Wolf (if you want to count it) but I think thats a whole different topic

Courtesy of Quora
Note: No dogs here! Hyenas are not members of the dog or cat families. Instead, they are so unique that they have a family all their own, Hyaenidae. There are four members of the Hyaenidae family: the striped hyena, the “giggly” spotted hyena, the brown hyena, and the aardwolf (it's a hyena, not a wolf).

Problems in Paws
Grass Seeds, Glass & Splinters

So your pet is limping, licking & biting their paw (note: just one limb usually) and you can’t see a jolly thing wrong.
Sometimes there may be a little swelling or redness but this is often because they have been worrying it.
You have tried the antibiotics, the creams, the soaks.
It may be a grass seed, a splinter, a thistle or a piece of glass?
Your options… Surgery…. Or .. Something Simple.

Surgery:
‘Sedation. IV cath placed. Clipped & washed. Incision made over swelling. Bloody pus revealed upon flushing and exploration. Grass seed produced. Applied bandage – to be removed in 3 days. Diagnosis = grass seed found.’
Bill = mega dollars and the ill effects of a GA. (General anesthetic)!

Something Simple
Try a little homeopathy

Suspect a glass fragment – Silica is your first go-to. Splinters & grass seeds - Myristica seb., or Hepar Sulph in a low potency 6c.
Cost = your time and the price of a remedy.
We have all these remedies in stock and can make up one for your individual needs.

Many years ago my mother was scheduled for surgery for a ‘growth’ on the top of her head. A few days before the op she said she was sure there was something in it so I said try Silica (no harm done in trying!). The day before surgery out popped a rose thorn. She was a keen gardener and had been weeding under her standard roses a few weeks ago. The smallest things can cause the biggest problems!

I am not going to be glued to the Radio at 2 pm today but this is how I explained to the family as to how the Budget works

My new toilet has a 4 star rating. This means, according to WELS (Water Efficiency Labelling Scheme) that it is a most efficient toilet.
Like the Budget, there is a hidden criteria.
The rating is based on the amount of flush, not the efficiency of the flush (ie does it actually carry anything away?)

My toilet takes at LEAST TWO, often THREE flushes to do the job because the flush is grossly insufficient. The average Auckland toilet takes 7 liters of water to flush. If my loo has a 5 litre flush (its that poor) it got a 4 star rating but actually the total water usage is up to 15 litres per flush!

I am on a home water tank supply and bought the 4 star loo thinking I was saving but in fact its going down the gurglar!

"From 8 months old, our Foxy/Jack Russell, Bertie, suffered from Inflammatory Bowel Disease. As Bertie passed his 10th birthday we began to wonder about his quality of life with tummy episodes every few weeks, and were looking for alternatives.

After talking with a friend whose dog had been helped by naturopathy, we tried the change in diet to raw and cooked foods including vegetables, together with the supplements which the naturopath prescribed; and found we had a new dog. Bertie is full of life, plays well, enjoys both his walks and sleeps, and really enjoys his meals. He had always been highly anxious, and even this has reduced.
For us this has meant a new peace of mind, that Naturopathy has given Bertie a new lease on life.”

Sandy: The change in Bertie has been remarkable and in a relatively short time. After 10 years his owners finally felt good about leaving him for a little while to go on a holiday. Its always a pleasure to see Bertie when he calls for his biscuits (NOT dry food). Thanks to clients for sharing his story.

What 'breed' of dog family is this beautiful guy - weighs in around 15-20 kg. No prizes but he is little known about so congratulations if you get it right!

I would like to dedicate this Mothers Day to a film from the current Italian Film Festival "Una Femmina' - The Code Of Silence. This filn is based on true stories of the heroic young women who stood up against the organised crime of Calabria n Italy. It tells the story of Rosa whose mother was forced to drink acid before killing her because she protested against the brutality within the family. Her daughter takes up the revenge. An extraordinarily powerful film about the strength of women.
Dont have any images but you can access info.

PROZAC: Fluoxetine, sold under the brand name Prozac, among others, is an antidepressant of the selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor class. It is used for the treatment of major depressive disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder, bulimia nervosa, panic disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

This could have been our 6 year old Westie's fate but he had a much wiser Owner!

Description of our Westie's traumatic shock due to recent thunder/lightening stormy weather.

Our Westie experienced what could be a psychological breakdown in response to the recent intense thunder/lightening. Previously he would race around inside the house barking at the thunder as it raged (we have a metal roof and polished concrete floors so the vibration would be strong).
Approx 16 days ago as the sky became an once again dark ready to experience more stormy weather, our Westie began shaking uncontrollably and couldn't use his back legs. He became terrified. We had never witnessed this before as he is typically a bold forthright kind of character. He adopted an invalid disposition unable to climb up stairs, hop into his bed and preferred to hide underneath a blanket on the floor....definitely not able to tolerate being picked up.
After 5 days of him continuing to decline I took him along to Sandy to have her expert wisdom assess him. Sandy administered several homeopathic remedies and to my surprise that first night he began the sudden return to his former self. After 5 days he was leaping stairs, barking, ruling the roost as per normal.
I am very thankful for Sandy's expertise and depth of insight with resolving our Westie's temporary psychosis in response to the frightening clap of thunder.
C.H.
Sandy - This Westie's initial response to a particular savage night of house-shaking thunder was so traumatic for him - my assessment of this poor dog was that he was in the equivalent of 'shell-shock'.. My approach to his treatment was to reach for the remedies that would be appropriate at the time of the shock.

Treating the patient adequately at the time of the incident (shock//mental trauma/ unseen soft-tissue injury such as bruising) unfortunately is not considered a necessity by conventional medicine, both for people and animals. This often results in on-going 'coping' issues for the patient, which are often not easily understood by surrounding family. It is sad to see so much suffering in our mental health system and in our drug- suppressed animals lives.
M thanks to my client for allowing me to share this with you.

DRY DOG FOOD SAVES PLANET

Just in case you’re not convinced or you missed this news-breaking gem in the NZ Herald under their ‘In Brief’ column, I re-print it here.

Feeding your dog dry food instead of tinned meat can help to save the planet, scientists have found.
Analysis of almost 1000 pet diets, including both dog and cat menus, found a wet food diet produced almost seven times as much carbon dioxide as a dry food alterative.
A 10kg dog such as a Dachshund, needs about 534 calories a day and if they get this entirely from the dry meal then their carbon ‘pawprint’ is 828kg a year, the study published in ‘Scientific Reports’ found. However, carbon emissions from a wet food only dog diet found more that six and a half tonnes. This level of greenhouse gas emissions is almost the same as an average Brazilian person’s annual emissions, the scientist writes, making a Dachshund’s wet dinners as bad for the climate as having another human living in Brazil.

Don’t you just LOVE it! I’ll bet that cost a kibble manufacturer some mega dollars to get that across the scientific desk. They say the worlds’ greatest spin- doctors are employed by the pet food industry and this would be a classic item. And to compare it with a Brazilian? How far down the research rabbit hole did they have to go to find that one!
It’s this kind of murky science that tarnishes the reputation of those doing really good work.

Persian, neutered male.

He was 2 years old
He came to me a year ago, on a bad diet, had been vaccinated. He was an unhappy cat, harassed by family members.

First Photo is what he looked like when he came to me – eyes extremely weepy and gungy. Tweaked his diet a little to real food but he’s fussy! Doesn’t appear to drink any water ? Has a sweet, playful nature but extremely wary of men. Loves his face being rubbed…

Started Sandy’s naturopathic treatment plan this week. He is responding really well. There is definitely way less weeping. I noticed it especially this morning when he came in from outside. The right eye became a little swollen and still produces more than the left but there is improvement. A little sinus irritation. Suggested to Owner e/oil of Eucalyptus in the house. Photo 2

5 days later!

Look at my boy now. No more weepy and gungy eyes – it has completely cleared up! Thanks so very much. (Photo 3) A.dB.

Childhood memories can be triggered by the oddest of things, like an odour wafting on the breeze, a face that looks familiar from bygone days,an old book (remember the 'Water Babies", Noddy & Big Ears, the Famous Five - all subject to PC scrutiny by the 'do-gooder's' now) . But a little pressy from Anneke of home-growns jolted me back to when I was 4 years old and my daily job collecting the chookies eggs. I opened the egg carton and there were SPECKLED eggs. I haven't seen any since a child!
I'm ok with white eggs, brown eggs but SPECKLED - now that's something else. I was glad no one was around as I pranced around with childhood delight...

More on our little poodle Rose, from last Post. Couldn't Post both videos together but this is at the same visit.

Opt for Euthanasia and deny there’s an aternative! Gema came to me at approximately three years of age. She was rescued from a puppy-farm. A little tan staffy, she was almost completely hairless with mange She had a superb nature, both with people and other dogs. The Vet had recommended she be put to sleep, as she was so bad. Her owner persevered with diet and herbals. She made a complete recovery and passed away at the age of 14. Bryan was a 8 y.o. Kelpie x GSD. He was having difficulty urinating and defecating and x- rays revealed an inoperable fast-growing mass surrounding his urethra. Euthanasia was recommended. He was put on herbs, homeopathics and the Bioptron Light Therapy. He made a complete recovery and passed at 13 years. Harvey was a 6 y.o. Dachshund still doing well in the Show Ring, diagnosed with prostate cancer. He had to be catheterised daily and unfortunately was not responding to his prescribed medication. Euthanasia was recommended.. Diet change and herbs & homeopathy saw Harvey recover and live to 15 years. The latest case: Rose - Poodle x female 11 years old. Report quote from Specialist Vets “… widespread thoracic, hepatic, splenic and muscular metastases… There are no viable therapeutics options for this dog. ….I would recommend palliative care for a few more days…undertaking euthanasia when the owners are ready to say goodbye …” Owners saw me three days after receiving this report. She couldn't even lift her head. This dog’s diet was changed to suit her poor condition, and given herbs and homeopathics. Two weeks later… the rest is history. She continues to do well. I attach a video of her and her owner. It is so terribly sad that vets would rather recommend euthanasia than seek others with the knowledge to help their clients. Like the Cancer Society, just another example when money, power and drug companies rule.

Gababetin (Neuronton) - one of the most commonly prescribed drugs for arthritis/pain. Watch what this drug does - the Gabapentin gait...24 hours after stopping Gabapentin the dog's walking returned to normal. https://natpet.co.nz/it-may-not-be-all-it-appears-to-be/ Unfortunately video on website needs attention, working on it!

Safety in the dark

LED lights on your dog may save his life in the dark and help others identify a moving object so they can take evasive action if neccessary. Rowan doesn't mind the light at all , nor does it bother his other doggie friends.

One massive massage!

Guess who has received the first Christmas present and who got the first visit from the girls when school finished two hours ago!
