Have you ever gone to a chiropractor? I do on a regular basis, and it has been a life-saver! I started having vertigo a few years ago, and have gone to doctors and allergists.

Benefits of Raw Feeding
Hello, today I wanted to talk about the benefits of feeding a raw diet, and much of these benefits fit with cooked diets too. I have been feeding my older Weimaraner raw food for about 5 years and transitioned my 7-year-old Weimaraner this past summer. They love it, and lick their bowl clean every meal! I feed a combination of home-made meals and commercially prepared meals. You can decide how much fresh to feed; you don’t have to feed every meal raw.
