Unruly Puppy or Dog? No need for the Dog Whisperer!


Check this out, you don't need the Dog Whisperer!!

Is your Dog driving you crazy like mine was?? 

Abby with her horns on!  
Abby with her halo!
 
Potting all over the house? 
Chewing on your shoes and furniture? 
Nipping at your kids?
Rushing out of the house as soon as the door opens?
Jumping up on your guests?
Jumping the fence?

My Darling little Abagail, 4 month old Boxer Pup, is a s cute as can be, but she trades her halo in for horns quite often! She started to run away from me when I let her out in the yard. Abby will not come to me, she makes me late for appointments and its just darn right frustrating. She thinks its a game! At least when we are in the yard she is contained, but I can NOT walk her at liberty with me from point A to B! She will not mind. We have also had a real rough time with the potty training too.

I have raised Boxers and a few other breeds for many years and I considered myself pretty knowledgeable in the field of training my puppies, until I read a special book ~ Dog Training Zone! WOW what a difference it has made. I have already seen a big difference in Abby. I wish I had this information years ago. This is really a great book, packed full of easy step by step instructions. I had to share it in my blog with everybody! If you are a puppy owner or just thinking of getting a puppy, you can't be without this book.
You love it and so will your puppy!

The Smootie Factor

I had a dear friend call this evening, he had came for Thanksgiving a few months back and called today to tell me his great news! 

At Thanksgiving we hadn't seen each other in almost 2 years, it was a great reunion! He was a bit overwhelmed of my prior diagnosis and didn't quite know what to expect. I described my BULGING EYE well, like a bulging eye! He was pleasantly shocked to see it wasn't near as bad as I described and that my health was GREAT!

My dear friend is one of my better believers, he is intelligent enough to really listen and weigh out possibilities. Over the months we have kept in contact and I've told him about my crazy protocols and support is always what I receive from him. He too has had a holistic epiphany, with a bout of gallbladder. But on the other hand, I think because the seriousness of CANCER, he has been a bit hesitant to believe.

BUT..............I am excited to say from the sound of his voice tonight I heard a believer in the benefit of nutrition. 

While he was here for the holiday, he had a bout of allergies (cotton harvest going on) He was miserable! So off to my basket of herbs and weird stuff I went! He started on my immune building sub-lingual pills with out any guff! Not even "whats in them". Taking one every hour along with a cup of raspberry tea, he got relief. Then I made him a smoothie, being the nectar loving creature he is, he loved all the ingredients, one by one!

Smoothie for two

2 cups plain all natural yogurt or cottage cheese
4 tablespoons Barleens Flax Seed Oil
4 tablespoons raw unfiltered coconut oil
1/2 cup fresh/frozen blueberries
1/2 cup fresh/frozen raspberries
1 whole banana
1/2 cup pineapple (fresh or canned)
Juice of your choice (I use elderberry)
Blend until smooth and top with organic granola

*use any fruit in season or what you like, experiment! 

Well we drank them down and he was shocked at how easy it was to make and how good it taste!
I never thought he would go back home and start a smoothie regimen, but he did and faithfully too!

The call tonight was to tell me how he thought the smoothie was changing his balance. He could feel the energy and health in him. He said he has been doing projects that have been sitting for months. He even caught a cold last week and felt great all the way through it! He said he is losing weight and satisfied most of the day from his morning smoothie. I can relate because I too had all this when I started them. I have been faithful to my daily smoothie for 16 months, my weight is right where it needs to be and I feel the energy.



 Mixing Flaxseed oil with these proteins believe it or not is responsible for this well being we both are feeling. It all comes from a very special lady, Joanna Budwig. She was referred to as a top European Cancer Research Scientist, Biochemist, Blood Specialist, German Pharmacologist, and Physicist. Dr Budwig was a seven-time Nobel Prize nominee.

When these two ingredients are mixed they become oxygenated and force oxygen into the bloodstream. Cancer or other diseases can not survive in a body with healthy oxygen levels. 

Dr. Budwig cured many cancer patients with this very protocol, along with her diet. If you want more detailed information on the subject, Google Joanna Budwig and there should be plenty of reading!!

Well to make a long story short DRINK A SMOOTHIE EVERDAY!! Take a challenge, try it for 4 weeks strait and see how you feel. Weigh yourself before you start and at the end of 4 weeks, see if you lost a pound or two! Its really worth a try!!

Another good recipe for the Flaxseed/cottage cheese
Spinach Dip
1 cup cottage cheese (preferably without chemicals)
2 to 4 tablespoons Barleens Flaxseed Oil
1 whole minced garlic clove
a dash to taste of red pepper
a dash to taste of sea salt
hand full of fresh spinach leaves
blend in blender until smooth!
Great with raw broccoli. carrots, celery and  organic natural crackers
