I also believe the ones using this holistic care are not really for sure themselves, they just think that it is the best or is a great selling point when it comes to a sale. I sure hope I didn't open a can of worms with my first post on the subject......because it seems people are really into the hype of holistic care which it could prove dangerous to a new yorkie owner.

Also Jen those little boys are so cute.........good luck on finding them a great holistic/normal home.

[I] think there is a reason for parvo... If it starts with feces, then the feces are the problem.. maintaining a clean environment is the best way.. Of course, this is not a perfect world... But, this is about worms.... and using a natural dewormer , and keeping the home and yard clean is the first line of defense... The fear i have, is causing parvo to appear in a healthy puppy by giving the vaccine... The drug companies have not tested properly for our pets, and the evidence is out there if you search... I found a good site and there is a lot of information available... There is a chance that vaccines are causing damage, and i am not going to risk their health any longer.. Just because puriona makes an expensive canned dog food does not make it a healthy food, free of animal by products... in the same way, are we supposed to believe the hype and advertising about safe vaccines..???
It is time to dig a little deeper, and stop listening to the commercialized views.... Vaccines are all about money.....not about need...this is my opinion.
and probably not the popular opinion...
