Great vet, great info June 5, 2007 L. HaLevy 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I used Dr. Plechner as a vet several years ago when my Aussie mix was throwing up every morning. He gave me the book, which explained a lot, and after a while on the duck and sweet potato dog food (I joked about her gourmet meals costing more than mine), she improved. Great vet, and I learned a tremendous amount about not only what to feed -- or avoid feeding - any of my dogs, but also about the irresponsible breeding practices which cause the problem... and how to test for the genetic health of an animal before I adopt. Excellent resource.
Pet Allergies May 24, 2007 Deanna Cunningham 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book has saved two of my standard poodles from epiletic seizures just by following the basic suggestions on diet. I am so lucky to have found it and have ordered many copies for friends
Excellent Reference Book on Pet Allergies! May 7, 2007 K. Beecher (Connecticut, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is an excellent reference book if you have a pet with allergies. The information is not only current and forward-thinking, but easy to understand as well. It actually explains why the problem exists and what to do about it. It also supplies a guide to Veterinarians regarding the proper testing and treatment of the animal. I am purchasing 4 more copies to give to several vets in my area. I highly recommend it!
Out of date March 8, 2007 J. A. K. (NJ) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
The information contained within this book was extremely out of date with a strong emphasis on steroids. It is a shame there are not more current and useful books for pet owner out there on this widespread problem.
No frills, just solid info March 2, 2007 Pupeluv (Glendale, AZ United States) This book is full of solid information and seems to come from a very balanced perspective. The book is slim, probably because it gets right to the point and isn't full of "fluff" chapters that I see in so many dog books. It was a real eye-opener for me, and it helped me figure out my dog's allergies when my vet had done all she could. In fact, I was so impressed with this book that I bought copies for all of my dog owner friends for Christmas.
