Shock to the System: The Facts About Animal Vaccination, Pet Food And How to Keep Your Pets Healthy
Author: Catherine M. O'Driscoll
Binding: Paperback
Price: $13.96
Most interesting book regarding vaccines, pet food, etc. This British author has done much research, but tends to agree that not all dogs and cats are suited to a raw diet (which I feed), but points out that some do better on cooked or even dry food depending upon their age or circumstances. She has done extensive research on diseases and vaccines which I found most informative. A lot of technical reading and much to absorb.
