Progress? More pets and people are getting sicker and pharmaceutical companies are getting meaner and RICHER$$. If you had read through the many articles on this website you would read about studies that have been done but you came here with a closed mind. While you're looking for your scientific studies supporting the use of homeopathy take a closer look at the studies on the many drugs out there. The list of possible side effects are enough to make you run in the opposite direction. Temporarily suppressing the symptoms is not creating health and does not get to the root of the problem but rather it gives a false sense of security while the problem festers and causes more damage. I challenge you to take a closer look.

"Fear of progress"? What "progress" would that be, exactly? Progress of symptoms, progress to death? Let's look realistically at what drugs do and do not do. Firstly, it's fairly well-known that allergies are one of the top reasons pets see a vet -- repeatedly. Take into consideration that the vets they see are, by and large, conventional vets with a conventional "treat with drugs" mindset. Few address the idea that allergies have root causes. Even fewer would consider suggesting a species appropriate diet over a bagged, processed one. Drugs are typically the "go to" knee-jerk reaction....and are also notorious for having "side effects". That also is not "news".
I would be interested to see what "science" you have that refutes this. What "false information" is being disseminated? That drugs suppress symptoms (they do) rather than cure? If animals were truly cured, wouldn't that mean they would never return to the vet for allergic symptoms? Yet we know from stats provided within the industry/profession itself that this is not the case.
What information do you believe is "harmful to pets"? That drugs are not the end-all/be-all they are purported to be? Sorry, but the "intelligent public" already knows that. Your reply is full of vagaries and general claims without any "proof" so if YOU would like to provide any "science" to refute what I or Dr. Will has said, I'd be happy to read it. Otherwise, I will indeed ignore it.
