The #1 New York Times Bestseller and Sunday Times Bestseller ‘Everyone who lives with dogs needs to read this book’ ALEXANDRA HOROWITZ, author of Inside of a Dog and Our Dogs, OurselvesOver the past few decades, many dogs have been getting sicker and dying prematurely. Why?
Rodney Habib and Dr Karen Shaw Becker have galvanized the best wisdom from top geneticists, microbiologists and longevity researchers across the globe to answer this question. Now, they will provide the practical, proven tools to protect our loyal four-legged friends, interviewing people whose dogs have lived into their twenties – and even their thirties – along the way.
The Forever Dog plan focuses on the latest scientific research surrounding food and nutrition, movement, environmental exposure and stress reduction, from the pros and cons of various types of pet food – including what commercial manufacturers don’t want us to know – to the role our own lifestyles and vets’ choices play.
This definitive dog-care guide empowers us with the knowledge we need to keep our dogs health and happy for years to come.
