Then consider this: • Dogs who ate standard man-made, chemically laced dog food live, depending on the breed, between twelve and fourteen years. Dogs that are fed all organic raw food, as they would eat in nature, live to be twenty-two to thirty years old. 24. Not convinced that companies produce poisons that they call "food"? Then consider this: • People always ask me, "Why do food companies and restaurants put all of these chemicals into the food?" The answer is very simple, they must make the food in the cheapest possible manner.

If you were to take two dogs that were genetically very similar (from the same litter, for example), and you brought them into your house from the time they were very young then fed one dog all the processed foods that human beings eat, while feeding the other dog outstanding nutrition from the more expensive dog food formulas, you would see a tremendous difference in the health and lifespan of these two dogs.

The waiter commented that he personally fed his own dog on Red Heart dog food. The customer replied that his dog would not eat dog food and demanded steak. The waiter said, "You've got one fussy mutt there, mister." The man, badly hurt by these insensitive words, went home and brooded. His beloved dog, a prince of canines, had been called "a fussy mutt." He brooded more. Imagine how you would feel if your mother were called "a drunken old whore." To this man, having his precious hound called "a fussy mutt" apparently seemed equally insufferable.

Using techniques advertising has perfected over decades to entice consumers to buy soap, cereal, beer, perfume, and dog food, the drug companies are transforming the way we look at medicines and fattening their own profits in the process. From 1994 to 2000, spending for consumer drug advertising rocketed from $266 million to $2.5 billion—a whopping 840 percent increase. Sales of prescription drugs shot up from $79 billion in 1997 to $164 billion in 2002. At the present pace, sales will reach a quarter-trillion dollars by 2007.

Why is it necessary to have our food colored? Even dog food is colored these days, and dogs are color-blind! Ninety percent of the colorings used by food manufacturers are synthetic, and most are coal-tar derivatives. They're put into soft drinks and wines, breads, cakes, and cereals. By using these dyes, manufacturers can make a food the color they think consumers want. For example, when you buy the most commonly available Atlantic farm-raised salmon, that pink flesh color you see is unnatural. A coloring agent has been added to the fish feed to make you think the salmon is good-looking.

He later discovered that the child was giving the dog his breakfast cereal, and he himself was eating the dog food. How do you drift into a way of eating which sickens and kills animals, and crowds our hospitals and medical facilities? You begin by assuming that the average is normal. What is more American than apple pie? There is nothing normal about a dessert which in one portion supplies 12 teaspoon-fuls of sugar—unless you take it a la mode, which brings the sugar total up to 18 teaspoonfuls per portion.

Under no circumstances was I to give him any canned or dried dog food during this nearly two-week recovery program. I must admit that as a boy of 12, I was a bit skeptical that this strange regimen would work. But I followed the old gent's directions and was happily surprised to see my dog's skin irritation virtually cleared up by then. This man had won over a young boy's trust, and he became one of my heroes in early life. Other Remedies that Work for Cats A girl I knew by the name of Beverly had a female cat that was her pride and joy.

Too much animal protein in the diet at any time will invariably produce gastrointestinal fermentation, the effects of which will be smelled later on either as gas discharged from the rectum or else as a sour odor coming out of the mouth. Dry dog food is preferable to table scraps for reducing this problem. However, a happy medium can be struck by alternating between both and giving 50 percent of each at separate feedings. 2. Incorporate more vegetable matter into the diet. Carrots, beets, parsnips, and red potatoes may be gradually worked into a dog's diet.

This can also be finely minced and included with dog food for similar results. Powdered wheat-grass or barley-grass juice work just as well and are probably easier to use. Sprinkle one-quarter teaspoon over some canned or packaged food that calls for a little water to be added. Stir until well mixed and then give to your dog to eat. The chlorophyll is what produces better-smelling breath. 5. Clean the teeth and tongue periodically. As humans, we are taught to brush, floss, and rinse the mouth regularly in order to maintain good breath.

Chlorophyll Makes Super Pets out of Ordinary Dogs and Cats For many years I've been a big fan of wheat and barley grasses grown in the soils of Lawrence, Kansas, where conditions are ideal for growing terrific chlorophyll. A dog food consisting of both cereal grasses, alfalfa, essential fatty acids (that include both omega 3 and 6), and several other things will give canines more energy than their owners ever imagined was possible. Cats benefit from this combination as well. (See Product Appendix under Pines for more information.

Then they mentioned what that morning's dog menu consisted of: "My leftover oatmeal, last night's organic baked potatoes with the skins, low-fat yogurt and organic carrots" added to a base of an organic brand of dog food they like. They state that table scraps like these have more vitality and nutritional goodness than do commercial pet foods. "Sprinkling grated or chopped raw vegetables—particularly carrots—on the base food is the most important addition you can make if you want to do something very easy. Treat table scraps or leftovers as a supplement to your animal's daily diet.

She showed him the expensive brand of dog food that her vet had recommended. He told her that "what I was feeding my pet was actually the cause of all its woes!" He showed her how to prepare a stew made with organic chicken parts, wild rice, and fresh vegetables. I asked her what this stew contained. "Oh, heavens, you would have to ask something like that," she said in mild frustration. "Let's see . . . we made our first batch in a ten-quart stainless-steel pot. I believe a medium-sized chicken was used.

Feeding dog food to a cat for an extended period of time can result in a B-complex deficiency. It should also be noted that Bl (thiamine) can be destroyed by an antagonist in raw fish. (For foods high in B vitamins, see sections 29 through 42.) All-fish diets are not healthy for cats. Vitamin-E deficiency can occur from feeding excessive amounts of red meat tuna. (It can also occur because of any all-fish diet.) Lack of appetite, fever, pain, and a reluctance to move are characteristic symptoms of pansteatitis, which results from vitamin-E deficiency.
