I don't know how these people are not sued for telling people to go against medical advice and give natural treatments when the treatments fail them. I have seen people recommend natural heartworm preventatives that have not been proven to work....and I often wonder WHO pays for the heartworm treatment when the pups get heartworms...and IF these people get sued. OR...if the poor pups are even allowed to be treated. I am not against holistic medicine, but I believe that it is not a substitute for good proven medicine.
Linda,

I certainly agree with you 100%. There is such a thing as recommendations, but offering advice over what the vet has recommended.....mmmmmmmmm That is unless one is willing to take responsibility if a dog should die., then one should be more careful in giving armchair vet advice.

Lissette has some of the best vets treating Lola and is following their advice to a T. I don't think she wants to put Lola at any additional risk. All Lissette and Lola need from us is our prayers and support.
