For Pet’s Sake Do Something! Book Three

Dr. Monica Diedrich
Two Paws Up Press (2008)
ISBN 9780979448614

“For Pet’s Sake Do Something!  Book Three” presents various ways to help heal your dog or cat by using alternative and complementary therapies.  This is the third book in the “For Pet’s Sake Do Something!” series of books.  I have not read the prior two but after reading Dr. Monica Diedrich’s newest, I think that they may be ones that I would like to check out.

The book covers a number of different methods of healing.  The first section starts out explaining how to use flower essences and essential oils.  Diedrich then moves on to explore magnetic therapy, reflexology, massage, and sounds healing, among multitudes of other methods that you are able to perform on your own.  The third section looks at professional therapies like chiropractic care and acupuncture.  Finally, Diedrich presents us with a lot of useful information regarding first aid, how pets age, and foods and plants that pets should avoid.

I found the book to be jam-packed with interesting information.  One of the things that I learned is that there is “a direct link between different parts of the body and specific sounds.  Each organ of the body has its own frequency, and that frequency resonates with specific sounds vibrations that help it to function optimally.” (p.104)  These correspond to the exact same frequencies in music.  For example, lungs correspond to the F tone, and the Colon to B.  If you found that little bit of knowledge to be intriguing, let me tell you that the whole book is full of useful facts just like that one. 

I think that “For Pet’s Sake Do Something!  Book Three” would be a wonderful reference book for anyone who wants to try alternative and complementary therapies with their pet, learn about pet first aid, and/or just learn general overall information to help their pet live the best life possible.  The therapies are presented in a very easy-to-understand format and you will learn a lot from this book!
