Dr. Bonnie V. Wright VMD's Veterinarian Itchy Skin Solutions Dog and Cats

Hello all,
    There are so many products on the market for pets! How do we weed through so many. Back when I graduated Vet School I had a customer ask me a simple question about naturals, organics and holistic products. From this customer's simple curiosity and seeking advice from her Vet about such topics my quest to weed through pet products was born!!! The more an more I combed through products the more and more I realized there were some pretty amazing products that were helpful as over the counter products and/ or that could be integrated with Veterinary Medical treatments of my patients. What I discovered is the products on the market vary greatly in manufacturing and quality and I have made it my mission to hand select products with the criteria of being more Earth friendly, higher quality, healthier for pets and/or enhance the human animal bond or products that are just down right fun!
