Fatty tumorsQ: Ihave never heard of vaccines causing fatty tumors in dogs. please tell me more and your source of info so i can research this myself. thank you. A: As i am a homeopathic vet as well as conventional vet this is from my homeopathic training. you could check out two books that may be helpful. one is called homeopathy for dogs and cats; small doses for small animals by don hamilton, dvm; other is dr. pitcairn's guide to natural health for dogs and cats by ricahrd pitcairn. did you ever wonder why warts, skin tags, lipomas, etc are so common in pets compared to people. pets are way overvaccinated every year and this has gone for 30 years.

Reactions?Q: I see you told an owner about continueing to give heartgard to a pet that is positive for heartworm disease. aren't you concerned about the anaphylactic shock that is going to occur and potentially kill her dog? i mean, isn't that the reason we test for heartworm disease prior to tprevention, so we can rule out being positive? A: In actuality there are many vet cardiologists who actually recommend monthly heartworm preventative to heartworm positive dogs if patient too big a risk for treatment i.e too old or too large a worm burden or severe lung disease present, etc; in these cases monthly heartworm preventative can actually prevent further reproduction and larvae development while of course not doing anything for adults present. ||anaphylactic reactions are extremely rare with monthly heartworm preventatives in positive dogs and only used to occur when old daily preventatives were used where dog had to be negative for heartworms as anaphalaxis more likely.||these are the medical facts. of course always best to know status of all dogs but your statements are not true
