192: Today I’m sharing my thoughts on why holistic dog care can still fall into the trap of treating symptoms instead of looking at the bigger picture. I talk about choosing herbs based on each dog’s individual needs, understanding organ health, and why the nervous system, lymphatics, and liver may need attention before focusing on the gut. I also discuss questioning common practices, looking deeper into health information, and being more intentional in how we support our dogs.
