"Dr. Paul McCutcheon is always ahead of the pack when it comes to the health and wellness of animals. This book is just another example of this extraordinary veterinarian's forward thinking." --Ann Rohmer, host of Animal House Calls

"Dr. McCutcheon has looked at the problem we all face--stress--and put together a wonderful discussion of how it relates to our relationship with our animal companions, [as well as] protocols to deal with it." --Carvel G. Tiekert, DVM, founder of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association

Stress. It's the single, universal cause of both wellness and illness. While this theory is widely supported in the human medical community, it's still controversial among veterinarians. Dr. Paul McCutcheon examines the all-important health-stress connection while drawing upon the latest scientific thinking and combining it with a comprehensive, preventive, and holistic philosophy of pet care. So if you're among the millions of caring, responsible pet owners who visits the vet more often than your own doctor but still wonders what more you can do for your dog or cat, The New Holistic Way for Dogs & Cats is the next best thing to a consultation with Dr. McCutcheon. If only he saw human patients in his practice, too!
