Stopping vaccines is easy, but what about providing the proper diet for your pet. Are their sources for whole foid diets in order to provide the proper nutrition needed?

We have always made our own food for our pets. Dogs are scavengers by nature, so they eat what we eat. We alternate beef, fish and chicken, with vegetables and light on grains such as rice or oats. They love a variety of raw veggies, and it's good for their teeth! We give them cod liver oil every couple of days, and a small amount of honey occasionally.

They get some fresh, raw milk once every day or two.

All the animals we have had were, and are, extremely healthy and live to healthy old age. We have eliminated most of the chemicals from our food and produce, by eating unprocessed fresh food. No bottled, canned, or packaged food. Just fresh food, and cooked only as much as needed.

Your pets will reflect your diet and lifestyle. If you eat crap and take a lot of meds because of it,...they will also follow suit.

Brilliant! If I’m a dog or cat in my next life will you be my owner?

Yes, commercial raw food diets are widely available now. That is their ancestral diet. I have personally fed my animals this way for the last 25 years and I have only good things to say about feeding this way. There are many books and webs sites dedicated to the topic. If you have the time you can do it yourself as long as you are well informed to make the diet nutritionally balanced. I also haven’t vaccinated for at least 15 years and minimally vaccinated before that. My animals live on average 16-20 years and none have contracted a contagious disease since I stopped vaccinating and where I live there is a lot of parvo and distemper.

Gee, that sounds like what is happening to our children!

For years I took my pets for shots, mainly rabies, but other shots annually as recommended. My last two cats were strictly indoors, and I stopped traumatizing them, going to the vet for shots. One lived to 19, the other to 20. The previous two cats also lived indoors, but went for their annual shots. One died at 11 (cancer) and the other at 13 (kidney failure).

I would be interested in diet suggestions for my current indoor cat (5) and my latest dog (2). The dog was adopted through a shelter, and got a lot of shots and a microchip before I could take him home. I would like to minimize harms as much as possible.

I started feeding our pets a species-appropriate raw diet to our pets 20 years ago.... and learned VERY quickly to not let the vets know I was. They don't smell, there's less waste, and they itch less.

What information do you refer to to get the raw diet with all nutrition your pet needs. My cat us feral, but unbelievably picky

I currently use Know Better Pet Food. We fee our cats ground raw turkey mixed with the powder from Know Better. When I started, there were many websites with specific instructions to make your own food...but as I added children to our lives, I went with the powder. Make sure that there's taurine. That is THE most important. I add a sprinkle of diatomaceous earth to prevent parasites. NO vegetables. Cats only need meat.

Some folks just use whole chickens... like... WHOLE... gotta have all the organs, etc. Some folks don't use ground, but chunks of meat.

When you look it up online, ignore the "oh no, raw diet is so bad for pets". It's not.

You might have to try a few different meats for your kitty to figure out what is liked. I keep it birds... since my cats wouldn't bring me a wild boar or buffalo, lol.

Maybe starting by adding some (homemade or no salt) chicken broth to the current food would work... adding the flavor without changing thr food TOO much. Then slowly transition?

If your not naturally rearing it is one (in the absence of MDA because MDA neutralises the vaccine virus rendering it useless they fight it off as a natural infection) DHP for life

What are your thoughts on those microchips? More and more cities and countries require them.

It appears that they are now in humans. A lot of self assembling matter has been discovered in human blood post pandemic.

Many thanks. My wife and I don't have pets but I grew up with cats. Most lived to around 18-20 years I recall. I have no idea about vaccines although they did go to vets occasionally.

I did see a sarcoma on the head of a horse at a Bed & Breakfast in 2022. It looked horrible. It was an ex-race horse and afterthe visit I wondered about vaccines as I gather the sarcoma was persistant.

I also gather that the lady of the establishment had a son who had a vetinary practice and had sold to an American company. The USA has a lot to answer for.

We got our latest dog about a year ago from a rural rescue. He was already full-grown but still very active, so we estimate around 3-5yo. About 6mo into our care, he developed something called “fly-biting syndrome”. I don’t remember the exact timeline, but in hindsight, I suspect it was shortly after a vet visit where he got one or more vaxes.

We read a lot about the condition, but my wife, with a pharmacist sister and nurse sister and nurse mother, doesn’t see any harm possible from the medical or pharmaceutical industries. I’ve been vax-skeptic since before 2020, and have been anti-vax (of ANY kind) since 2021.

This problem has to be neurological. I suspect it affects the auditory nerve or processing center and causes phantom ringing or buzzing in one or both ears, causing the dog to react as if there is a mosquito near their ear. One thing we read was that certain probiotic strains can have neurologically calming effects, both in dogs and in people. Bifidobacteria Longum. Available in many forms OTC.

We switched to a sort of raw diet, but more of a human-quality diet. Equal parts canned salmon (to avoid chicken as a possible allergen, which I no longer believe it is for him), canned carrots, fresh rice made with butter and coconut oil, and canned pumpkin (which is great for stool consistency if your dog is on any meds or antibiotics that cause diarrhea).

To that, we add one packet of Purina Proplan calming care probiotic in the morning, and one of these calming chews after dinner. We give him an extra calming chew if it’s going to be thundering or stormy or any occasion for fireworks because they really do help. So far, his fly-biting behavior has been drastically reduced.

As an additional effort, I’ve read about some neuro-protective and neuro-generative effects of ivermectin in humans, so after reading about the safety or issues of it with dogs, I’ve started adding occasional micro doses of IVM to his diet as well.

As a lontime dog owner who has seen the over vaccination resulting in degraded health of my tiny Yorkies, this is heartbreaking. But not surprising at all. I have not had my last surviving two get so many vaccines as before (when I was oblivious) but my 12-year-old female has CKD and the vets and pet stores have a costly and cruel gauntlet we’re stuck in. It's like living in an escape room! I keep saying, "no more dogs!" Because of the deadly garbage dealt from vets. Makes my big man husband tear up. The thought of no doggies in the house is impossible to carry. The medical PTB really do want everyone and their pets sick to death in exchange for making their own fortunes. Feels so helpless. The whole thing is a joy killer.

I have been cooking my dogs' food for at least 18 months and I see better energy and better breath. But hasn't stopped the itching. They are a mid size (39-45 lbs) border Collie and border-lab mix. I wish the boarding services didn't require the vaccines especially the annual ones. I'm hoping adding a small cortisol supplement will help stop the itching! For a couple of years I used in an home pet sitter but she's nearing the end of her schooling for medical services training and I'll lose her. And I'm leery of trying to find another because she was a high school student we knew from church. I didn't have to keep vaccinations updated when they were always home.
