-
When your doggie becomes infected and shows any of these symptoms (yellow frothy vomit, diarrhea [with or without blood], lethargy/no energy, wobbly, no appetite, dehydration, very depressed, etc.) then he may only have a few Read the rest of this entry »

How Parvo Takes Its Toll
A report on the Daily Review Atlas discusses the Canine Parvovirus, talking about the virus itself, vaccination, and a few other issues.
You can read the full story here.
However, you should be aware that the statement “Current medical recommendations state dogs should be subsequently vaccinated one time per year.” is no longer true.

Price Changes
Please note that we have had to raise the price of all of our safe, herbal products, with effect from today, owing to an increase from the manufacturer.
This affects the following products:
- Adizone
- Cough & Cold Formula
- Doggie Pain Relief (aka Pet’s Pain Formula)
- HeartWorm Free (aka HWF)
- Kennel-Koff
- Kidney Rejuvenator
- Kitty Distempaid
- Life Cell Immune Support
- Parvaid
- Urinary Tract Relief
- Vaccination & Wormer Detox
- Vibactra Plus
as well as our Gold Value Packs and/or Bulk Buys.
Don’t forget, though, that our products still offer excellent value compared to the cost of taking your dog to the vet’s, where you can easily pay anywhere from $500 to over $6,000 per dog to have it treated for Parvo, say.
Also, our Value Packs and Bulk Buys already have discounts of up to 10% built into them.
New Protocols For Home Parvo Treatment
As of today, there are new protocols in effect for the treatment and prevention of the Canine Parvovirus using our safe, chemical-free products.
From now on, the minimum product set recommended by the manufacturer is Parvaid, Vibactra Plus and Life Cell Immune Support, which is what we package together as our Silver Value Pack and which is a change we have been pushing for for many months.
This means that the Bronze Value Pack, containing just Parvaid and Vibactra Plus, that we used to sell is no longer available.
Also, the dosage schedules for Vibactra Plus and Life Cell Immune Support have been updated as these too have changed.
All orders placed from now on will use these new protocols, and any documentation that we publish on our site and/or issue to customers has already been updated to reflect these changes.
NOTE that we have had to update our protocols again as the Parvo virus becomes even more aggressive.
New Weekday Shipping Deadline!
