“Akita-Treasure of Japan,” Volume II by Barbara Bouyet is a new concept in dog breed books, filled with information unavailable in other books on the Akita.  In addition to revised and expanded chapters covering history, training, dog shows, growth stages, temperament, breeding, and puppy care, there is an extensive Herbs and Supplements Chapter.  The Akita Nutrition Chapter introduces you to the real world behind the dog food industry and offers healthy alternatives including the Bones And Raw Foods diet. The chapter for the Aging Akita will keep your senior dogs comfortable for years; the breed specific Diseases Chapter brings you the latest important information on diseases, diagnosis, treatments, drugs and nutritional support. The general Health Chapter offers an in-depth discussion on vaccines and recommended vaccine protocols from the experts. Canine diseases, parasites and basic care for your dog are covered along with homeopathic alternatives, antibody titers, nosodes, and immune system support.

Within its 500 plus pages, Akita-Treasure of Japan, Volume II offers you:

Based on two years of research, this book will help you understand why all breeds are now faced with epidemics of cancer and immune diseases—how an Akita’s health can be compromised by even the compulsory acts of breathing, eating and drinking.  The Biocides and Health Appendix is a shocking must read for every dog owner, confirmation that environmental toxins damage the body, and how we can provide protection to our Akitas. All the information is here for you; and every Akita has a right to remain healthy. It is in your hands.

Once again, Dr. W. Jean Dodds has edited the medical and health information.  Her response: “Dear Barbara:  This is an incredible job, well done and informative.” Jean.
