To my students, I have always said I do believe in natural remedies, but if I break my leg, I am not going to a naturopathic doctor to set the bone. How-ever I will go to a naturapathic doctor for herbal remedies to help aid in bone healing, andto support immune system.
My belief is that if a person or a dog is healthy and eating a healthy diet, supplements are not needed. I have yet to have issues with any bone healing in myself or any of my pups...and I have had ortho surgeries as have some of my pups.

I just don't believe in supplements unless indicated.
