Chai & Anderson

"Good Night"

Hi Marijke -

Chai is doing much better. And I am hoping she stays this way. I think it has been three weeks now since I started her on the Riva's Bone-Up and Iron-Up. The first noticeable change was her coat...much, much softer. Her energy level increased right away also. The last three weeks I've only been taking her on small twenty-thirty minute walks and usually to the beach so it's easier on her joints on the sand. Yesterday we went for an hour on a forested trail by a lake. She acted like she was 5 years old again (maybe younger). I put her on her leash a couple of times because she wouldn't stop running and jumping over stuff and I didn't want her to hurt her legs. She was really tired and stiff last night (although I am pretty sure she fakes the limping a lot especially when James gets home from work or she isn't getting what she wants). She got up this morning and there doesn't appear to be any stiffness or limping. As you suggested I bought her new ceramic food and water bowls. She seems to like them much better. She is also eating much better because she thinks the Iron-Up and Bone-Up are treats in her food. Lol. So far so good! She is 11 years old.

Canine Food Facts

1) Dogs are direct descendants from the wolf - 15,000 years ago in Central Asia.

2) Wolves teeth and digestive systems confirm that they are meat eaters. They have large fanged teeth and hinged jaws.

3) The ancestral diet was approximately 50% protein, 25% fat and 14% carbohydrates. The modern dog on dry kibble (depending on the brand) eats between 20-30% protein, 10-20% fat and 50-70% carbohydrates.

4) Dogs generally don't do well on a grain based diet.

5) Dogs are healthier on a meat based diet.

6) Not all dogs excel on a raw food diet.

7) Dogs need fibre from plants and grains.

8) Despite everything, I have had to put some dogs (and cats) on

vegetarian diets to restore their health.

Homeopathy...for all

Homeopathy can be used everywhere and on every living being. As a vibrational medicine a homeopathic remedy aligns itself with any other vibrations nearby that it recognizes as being similar and then helps that vibration to find and maintain its balance. Nothing short of miraculous.

It can benefit every living (and non-living) being including fish! Yes fish...

Gold Fish & Homeopathy

I have basic 'feeder' Goldfish-about 10" long, nose to tail - they have gorgeous long, flowing tails. I got them when they were babies, about 1/2" long.

Then one of them got a fungus growth on his side. You recommended the Homeopathic form of your Skin Heal for dogs and cats: Rumex (yellow dock) Sterllaria Media (Chickweed) and Plantain (plantago). Every few days I would add a few pellets of each to the fish pond. I just threw them in the water. It took a few weeks for the fungus to disappear, but the fish never lost his energy and vitality. Your remedies worked great on him! His growth has either completely vanished or is hardly visible. It's hard to tell because he now has a big white spot where the growth was. He is a very active fish and doesn't sit still at all...but from what I can see, it looks like the growth is completely gone. The white spot, coupled with his movement (they never stop moving together and never sit still) makes it hard to see it really clearly.

Then a week ago another one of the fish - there are 7 beautiful pond fish - became very lethargic, and disappeared for a few days. He finally emerged, but was extremely listless and wasn't eating. Years ago I had a similar situation with one of my tank fish, and you recommended Arsenicum Album. It helped in that situation, so I put some Arsenicum pellets in the pond. I ended up dosing the pond twice, a few days apart. As of this weekend the Big Fish is back with his buddies, and is active and eating again. So thank you very, very much Marijke! You're the now the Fish Lady!!

Good Morning Marijke,

At the Mane Event this year in Red Deer you directed me to the Bladder Drops for incontinence for Jet my male cat with a bit of a problem. You also energized them for me before I purchased them. Thank you so much as they do appear to be working. We have only had one or two accidents in the house and he appears to be much more relaxed as well. ...Gloria F. (Alberta)
