July 23 (9:30-12:00) $15.00
Many of us love our animal companions more than we love ourselves (I know I do). This class offers information on nutrition, natural pesticide control and herbal remedies for our pets. We discuss the pros and cons of vaccination and other routinely offered medical treatments for dogs and cats and the alternative approaches to ensuring our loved ones live long, happy, healthy lives. Recipes for food and medicine will be offered and discussion of specific health issues encouraged.
