"The Ultimate Guide to Dog Health" by Dr. Gary Richter is a comprehensive guide to everything a dog owner needs to know about keeping their furry friend healthy and happy. This book covers a wide range of topics, from nutrition and exercise to common health problems and alternative treatments. In this review, we'll dive deep into the contents of this book to provide a detailed overview of what readers can expect.
One of the main strengths of "The Ultimate Guide to Dog Health" is its approachability. Dr. Richter writes in a clear, easy-to-understand style that doesn't require any specialized medical knowledge. This makes the book accessible to all dog owners, regardless of their background or experience with pets. He also does a great job of breaking down complex topics into simple, actionable steps, which is especially helpful for those who may be feeling overwhelmed or intimidated by the prospect of caring for a dog.
The book is organized into four main sections: Nutrition, Lifestyle, Environment, and Disease. Each section covers a broad range of topics, with subchapters providing detailed information on everything from the benefits of feeding your dog a raw food diet to how to prevent tick-borne illnesses. There are also numerous case studies throughout the book that illustrate the points Dr. Richter makes and show how his advice has helped real-life dogs and their owners.
The first section of the book, Nutrition, is one of the most comprehensive I've seen on this topic. Dr. Richter covers everything from the basics of dog nutrition to the pros and cons of different types of diets. He also includes a detailed section on food allergies and how to identify and treat them. This section is particularly helpful for those who may be struggling to find the right diet for their dog, as it provides a clear roadmap for making informed choices about what to feed your pet.
The Lifestyle section covers a wide range of topics, from exercise and play to grooming and dental care. Dr. Richter emphasizes the importance of regular exercise for maintaining a dog's overall health and well-being, and provides practical advice on how to ensure your dog gets enough physical activity. He also provides tips for grooming your dog at home, including how to trim their nails and brush their teeth. This section is especially helpful for new dog owners who may not be familiar with the ins and outs of caring for a pet.
The Environment section is focused on identifying and addressing potential hazards in your dog's living space. Dr. Richter covers everything from common household toxins to outdoor hazards like pesticides and fertilizers. He also provides tips for creating a safe, comfortable living space for your pet, such as choosing the right bedding and providing plenty of toys and mental stimulation.
The final section of the book, Disease, covers a wide range of health problems that dogs can face, from common ailments like ear infections to more serious conditions like cancer. Dr. Richter provides detailed information on the signs and symptoms of each condition, as well as the most effective treatment options. He also provides information on alternative and complementary therapies that can be used in conjunction with traditional veterinary care.
One of the standout features of "The Ultimate Guide to Dog Health" is Dr. Richter's emphasis on holistic and integrative medicine. He advocates for a whole-body approach to pet health, which includes not just traditional veterinary care but also alternative therapies like acupuncture and herbal medicine. While some readers may be skeptical of these approaches, Dr. Richter provides a balanced and evidence-based discussion of their potential benefits, making a compelling case for incorporating them into your pet's care regimen.
Overall, "The Ultimate Guide to Dog Health" is an excellent resource for dog owners looking to take a proactive approach to their pet's health. Dr. Richter provides a wealth of information on everything from nutrition and exercise to common health problems and alternative treatments.

Six Feet Under
Buried alive. What a horrible way to go. Yazz lay there, in her own thoughts. What else could she do? She was hungry, thirsty, tired, mentally, and physically exhausted, and more than anything, she was bored. She hoped she would die of boredom before anything else, anything else would've been more painful. Like many people had, she and her friends had talked about what they reckon the worst ways to die were, it was a morbid subject, but it came up every now and again. Yazz had always been one to argue her point on drowning, others had mentioned burning alive, slowly and painfully bleeding to death, hung drawn and quartered, and being starved to death. It was strange that none of them had considered being buried alive, it had never come up. But now, she was thinking back to those conversations her and her friends had had, how could they have not thought about it? It took a lot longer than the others, you were completely confined, you couldn't move or do anything, you just had to wait, until your body was physically unable to support a life system anymore, which could take up to four days. Four! By far the longest out of all of them. She recounted some of these conversations just to try and pass the time, anything to pass the time. It was difficult to know how much time had passed since she had been underground, it was difficult to know anything. There were many things that Yazz didn't know, she didn't know where she was, she didn't know how she'd got into the coffin, she'd just woken up there. Yazz also didn't know what time it was, or even what day it was, she guessed at Tuesday, it was Sunday evening when she'd been buried alive, intentionally, and although it had felt like weeks had passed, she was still alive, which means she hadn't died from dehydration, and therefore it couldn't have been more than four days.
