Guest guest Posted August 13, 2003 Report Share Posted August 13, 2003 BTW, these recipes below are NOT just for dogs- they are good for humans too...but NOT for cats. The top blend can also be made into a wonderful bath blend (no more than 10 drops total to one full bath) too. My mother, who has had her hips replaced, swears by it. I use that formula in a mineral salts blend w/ added MSM. Great for arthritis. Especially in conjunction with right diet, supplements, etc. BTW, does anyone else here feed their pet a raw food diet besides me? I am amazed at the benefits so far. My cat is only 6 months old. My first raw pet. Elizabeth On Wednesday, August 13, 2003, at 03:37 PM, Elizabeth wrote: > I'd add MSM to his diet. > I'd also look at switching to a raw biologically correct (for dogs) > diet.
