I am a total newbie to homeopathy. My 6 dogs keep having things come up, so I decided to get this book because it was recommended to me. It is awesome! It explains a little of this history and how it was discovered. It explains the concept and how it works very well. Then it explains how to use the medicines, so you aren't just left with more questions! Then the rest of the book is common symptoms/diseases and the various medicines it could be with explanations of symptoms to help you choose the best one for your pet. It makes homeopathy pretty easy! Great for beginners, which is what I am. And I have already gotten the confidence to treat 2 of my dogs! I definitely recommend this book if you want to help your pets naturally instead of using allopathic medicines.

This is a great comprehensive book for treating pets naturally with Homeopathics.

Homeopathic Care for Cats and Dogs is encyclopedic in scope, clearly written and beautifully organized. Dr. Hamilton begins with a succinct overview of the history of homeopathy, from its origins in 18th century Germany through its rise, fall and resurgence in 20th century America. He outlines the principles and philosophy underlying homeopathic treatment, and explains its basic concepts in accessible language anyone can understand. Dr. Hamilton examines the nature of health, disease and cure, drawing a contrast between "conventional" or allopathic medicine, and homeopathy. He explains that while allopathic medicine relies upon a theoretical approach that equates symptoms with the disease itself, homeopathy utilizes an empirical method of careful observation of each individual patient.This authoritative book provides lucid, detailed advice for using homeopathic medicine to help your companion animals at home, along with clear guidelines for when to seek professional help. Specific information is provided on taking the case, choosing and administering the remedy, and evaluating progress. Chapters on organ systems (skin and ears, digestive system, respiratory system, etc.) include suggestions for remedies appropriate to various conditions, as well as a helpful summary recapping the most important concepts. One chapter explores the complex issue of vaccination, and another examines the philosophical and psychological reasons we keep companion animals. Finally, the book incorporates an excellent materia medica describing commonly used homeopathic medicines.Dr. Don Hamilton brings to his veterinary practice and to this luminous book an open-minded, compassionate, holistic perspective. The book incorporates his comprehensive understanding of both conventional Western veterinary medicine and classical homeopathic healing, gleaned from more than thirty years of practice. I have found this book to be a treasure-trove of useful and fascinating information, and can recommend it without reservation to anyone looking for a better way to help your animal friends.
