Perfect Health for Dogs (and Cats)

If you’re a pet owner, there is information that can allow your pets to be healthy and disease-free for life.  The vet industry would prefer that you not have it, and indeed the educational system that prepares vets for commercial success does not even teach this information. Financial success is only possible for vets because health success is not enjoyed by the vast majority of pets.   As it does in the human medical system, disease makes lots of people lots of money.  For those intrepid thinkers who have decided to not allow themselves to be pawns of this corrupt system, and would like their animals to experience their full health potential as well, full instructions on how to accomplish that are available.  Further, they are cheap and easy to implement. For your pet’s sake, I urge you to avail yourself of this incredibly valuable information by visiting:  www.NoMoreVetBills.com.  

 

Nora and Coco, August 2005

As of this writing in July 2011, Coco is now 18 1/2 years old!  He still trots alongside me when we walk, and has not visited a vet for sickness in 11 years!  This is no accident or fluke of breeding or heredity.  I took positive steps 17 years ago to feed him properly, forego vaccination and “treat” symptoms by removing causes rather than suppressing them with medicines, herbs or supplements.  

It’s always best to start early, but it’s never too late to begin proper feeding.  Your pets will thank you!

  1. I purchased your e-book and find it quite interesting. One point though when it comes to fasting and your feeding methods – Wolves don’t do agility and are not as active as my dogs would be – between hiking, training and trialling – they are busy. Performance dogs work hard and for the most part, their weight is kept lean.

    1. Hi Petra,
      Thanks for your valuable feedback! Wolves most certainly DO do agility, that’s where those natural skills that dogs have come from. They are every bit as active as performance dogs, as well. Among domestic dogs, only working dogs might work as hard as wolves do. Nevertheless, if your point is that lean body mass excludes the need for maintenance fasting, I would disagree based on the very low reserves that wolves have historically carried, even through prey scarcity. Even owners of lean performance dogs find that at least one day of fasting per week improves energy and stamina. Regardless of what a dog does as a matter of lifestyle, feeding on alternating days is probably the best of both worlds (domestic and wild). It goes without saying that any kind of symptom requires fasting as well, no matter how active a dog is. Of course lean/skinny dogs rarely get sick.
      Thanks again for the input,
      Nora

  2. Nora, was given your name by a friend who has utmost respect for all that you do. My 13 year-old male cat is experiencing crystals in his urine which was shown to me by a vet, and, obviously I am thinking, in his urinary tract. The vet suggested canned S/D Science Diet, which he will sometimes eat, for he prefers chasing and eating lizards in our yard. (It is Phoenix!) My friend suggested a raw food diet and referred me to your nomorevetbills site; however, there are not specifics on the feeding, ie. the gradual introduction of raw meat into their feeding. Any suggestions/advice? Starting instructions? A book? I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

  3. Nora,
    Is there a place where we can all go and get your input on a weekly basis? Is there some place you have set up to answer our questions? I would love to learn more from you but don’t know where to go.

    Thank you!
    Judy

  4. Hi Nora – it is 2016 and I want to know where we can go to learn more from you. Updated information that you have experienced. Also I want to know how to contact a blog of people that are following you. I would sure love some advice! I have many questions. I purchased your book but want to correspond with other pet owners who believe in this way of feeding. I happened to run across this site – but would prefer it if you would email me with that blog information. Thank you! My little Jemma is thriving on the raw food! Judycozza@gmail.com

  5. It is now almost October 2016 and I have not heard back from you. Please let us know where we can have correspondence with you and the other raw dog owners. Thank you. Judy

    1. Judy, I’m so sorry to just now be responding to your message. I can only think we must have talked on the dog site. If you haven’t already discovered my Facebook groups, one is called Rotational MonoFeeding and it is free. The other one is smaller and I moderate it personally. It’s called RMF Community and you can join from the website. Just look under “Services”.

  6. Dear Nora,
    My 11 year old cocker Bonnie is very ill and blood results last week suggest she has a liver tumour
    It is very hard getting her to eat and we are trying all we can to help her!
    Do you have any suggestions as
    could do for her or try her with?thank you xx

    1. Hi Dorothy, I don’t think I had seen your question before now. Hopefully you found some help by now but if you’re still in need, please see my website http://www.NoMoreVetBills.com and feel free to join my Facebook group of the same name where I contribute almost daily. So sorry I missed your question earlier.

  7. I just happened to stumble on your website and am thrilled that I did, everything that I’m reading resonates with me. I have a 10 year old male Newfoundland, Bodhi who suffers from chronic ear infections in both ears. I recently took him to a dermatologist who wants $500 to clean out his ears, culture them and put him on long term antibiotics and steroids as well as toxic flea treatments (Bravecto). He said that it will most likely take multiple treatments over the rest of his life! This didn’t seem right to me so I’m searching for alternative treatments that will heal him instead of treating symptoms. The dietary approach to healing the body makes so much sense. I had Bodhi on a raw homemade diet for the first year of his life, but discontinued due to cost. He was healthy during that time with no issues until he got a rabies vaccine (he hasn’t been vaccinated since), which he had a reaction to. When he tested positive for e-coli in both ears, the vet said that it was due to his raw diet 9 years ago!

    I’m feeding him Honest Kitchen grain free beef variety after giving him Kirkland organic chicken kibble/canned food for most of his life. He’s doing OK except for his ears and some joint stiffness. I just bought your e-book and am looking forward to changing his diet based on your suggestions and watching Bodhi take a flight into health! Many thanks for this life saving information.

    1. Your vet’s being very loyal to his profession and he’s looking after his business. That’s what anyone in business would do. Unfortunately his business is keeping dogs sick, much like doctors keep humans sick. I guess we could all take some lessons in longevity from those intrepid bacteria that just laid in wait till they could attack your dog. Could it get sillier? Honest Kitchen is junk, just a slightly better grade that the kibble. Ear issues are so, so, so easy to resolve. You will see. It’s criminal that vets claim to not know what to do about them! The whole industry needs to be sunk to the bottom of the ocean, along with its human counterpart. Thanks for your comments and best of luck for a smooth transition.

  8. Hi Nora
    I wondered if you have any advice with Mass Cell Tumors in older dogs …. Pp is almost 14 & has recently had 3 MCTs removed from her head ( one was quite large ) & has multiple one coming up !!! I know I couldn’t buy your e book but at present I am struggling financially. Any help would be gratefully received
    Much Love

  9. I’m so glad to have found your work Ms. Lenz, on this journey of my own health as well as my dog’s. I have made the transition with my dog onto a food regimen that is as natural and alive as possible, and his current condition is clear evidence that it was the right decision. However, as a ten-year old toy poodle in robust health, one thing I have noticed is that he has lost a few teeth over the years, which tells me the state of his oral health is deficient in something. I’m wondering if you might be able to provide some guidance on what I could incorporate (or eliminate) from his diet to improve his oral health.

    1. Hi Logan,
      I would probably try to get as much bone matter into him as is practical. Bone turns poop very dry and crumbly and people often equate this to constipation, but it’s not. I’m not sure it’s a problem at all, especially if it might help turn this dog’s dental issues around. For a dog so small you’ll need to find game hens or quail, or grind up defatted chicken or chicken necks. Add dark meat to meals as well because it is higher in minerals. Beef heart is a good choice if you can get it.
