Trustworthy Resources for Dog Info

How do you know if what you read online is accurate, or even safe?  

The answer is that there is no easy way - it takes years and years of research and work to learn what makes sense and what doesn't.  

The shortcut? Find one expert you trust, and ask them. Then open up your mind, and dig in. You'll find you branch off from there in wonderful directions.

Here's a list of resources that we've VERY CAREFULLY chosen. We've worked with these people, met most of them in person, followed them for years, read the studies they cite, and seen what their advice does in action - we've personally helped hundreds of dogs get over a variety of problems by using the information below.  

We hope a whole new world opens up for you and your dog.

Magazines

Dogs Naturally

Books

The Essential Dog is a great primary resource for a feeding program.

The Nature of Animal Healing (there are parts of this that may be over the top for some readers - magnet therapy, etc. - but the majority of the book is the best description I've ever read of how the body works and how nutrition plays a part.)

Animals in Translation helps us see our animal's world utterly differently.

Through the Eyes of a Dog is another one of those books that makes you say "Wow, I never thought of that. That explains so much!"
