The book is a treasure June 27, 2008
Our dog was given Carprofen (Rimadyl, Novox) TWICE, the last time causing major liver damage. We found Cyndi Smasal's book on the web, and decided to help our vet by helping with the treatment for the liver disease. The information in this book has been terrific. About two months ago, our vet called US to get a copy of the diet that we are using, since he was so impressed with the outcome of the treatment, and readily admitted that he credited much of the success of recovery on the diet. As far as commercial foods, look at "[...]" for some eye opening information of some of the "garbage" foods out there. Thank you Cyndi for your dedication to your dog. Our's has flourished from that information. Our lab is reasonably well, and the damage has been reduced to manageable. We expect to have her around for some years to come. Again, thanks.
Home Cooked Recipe Is The Way To Go! November 5, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The recipe found in this book "Basic Homemade Meal for Liver Disease" is really working for our dog! Although, I did minor changes to the recipe...
The recipe called for tofu, cottage cheese and macaroni. I used the substitution of 1/2 cup of Chicken Liver and Organic Potatoes since both are found in nature.
The recipe also called for the vegetables to be boiled or steamed. I varied the recipe by very lightly pan frying my Organic Vegetables (chopped to tiny morsels with a hand chopper) with a very low flame I served the vegetables almost raw to keep the nutritional value.
The recipe also called for preparation of the Chicken Liver to be boiled which leaves most of it's nutritional value in the water. I varied the recipe by baking the Chicken Liver in my toaster/oven for 15 minutes at 250 degrees then placing the Chicken Liver in the same pan as my pan fried Organic Vegetables and then frying them together in a very low (almost off) flame for a few minutes.
It would have been helpful if there were instructions on how to prepare a Fresh Artichoke. I grew up in a household of vegetarian parents. I've never eaten an Artichoke!!!
So, I went to my local grocery store and examined what Canned Artichoke Hearts looked like so I knew which part of the Fresh Artichoke I needed to give my doggy.
Combined with my Veterinarian prescribed "Denamarin" and feeding my dog with the recipe "Basic Homemade Meal for Liver Disease" found in this book, in less than two weeks the levels in my dog's liver went significantly down almost a thousand points!!!
Although, I still give full credit to The ALMIGHTY LORD and HIS Healing Power WHO is healing my dog...I still recommend the recipe for the Basic Homemade Meal for Liver Disease found in this book. I will continue to feed my dog home cooked food and will never touch commercial dog foods again!!
Very Thankful For This Book August 16, 2007

This book is a must for any one battling liver disease in their dog. It offers hope and a wealth of knowledge and valuable information. I highly recommend this book. My dog benefitted greatly from this book and I am most appreciative and grateful to this author. It was clear that the author thoughtfully researched and wrote this book as a labor of love for her dog.I Would give this book 10 stars if that were possible.
