Marlene, I have to tell you the Senior Blend and vitamins seem to have really helped my Chelsea. She's a 16 1/2 year old American Eskimo with diagnosed kidney disfunction and Cognitive Disorder Syndrome. I just got her urnialysis and bloodwork back from her annual check up. Her uninalysis is NORMAL! And her blood levels have improved significantly since her last visit. She has good and bad days with her mental state, but she remains mostly continent and responsive. Some days she even gets the "zoomies" like when she was an energetic puppy. Nothing makes me happier than to see her play bow and wait to be chased. Thank you for providing superior natural treatment choices for my baby. I've shared your site information with every pet-person I know. MM

Dear NaturalCanine.com: My daughter Mia and I want to thank you. Our 11 year old shepherd mix, Julie, had begun leaking urine a couple of months ago, and it had worsened to the point where we had difficulty enjoying her company. Her quality of life was suffering, because she'd begun to develop a rash from the constant moisture (urine). Frequent baths and the application of corn starch helped some, but we have a busy life, so found it difficult to keep up with her care. Plus, we weren't curing her, but treating symptoms only. After starting her on Leaks No More, she began improving almost immediately. Within a few days, the leaking had diminished significantly. Now, after a couple of weeks (and we weren't even very diligent about giving the medicine exactly as described, missing doses some days entirely), the leaking has stopped. I have long been an advocate of homeopathic cures for human beings ... now I know homeopathy also works for dogs. Thanks again for helping us maintain a healthy happy relationship with our furry friend. SM & MM

Marlene, Our 12 year old spayed German shepherd is having a comeback of incontinence. She first had a problem a few years ago and we controlled it with ppa from the vet, then the ppa stopped working recently, even when we doubled the dose. We gave her the leaks no more according to the directions, and it worked, and I've kept the dose to 1x a day.

Dear Michael and Marlene, I haven't been in contact since last Spring (2002) and mainly because my Westie, Mikey has been enjoying excellent health thanks to you! Getting him off the prednisone and antibiotics (which were shutting down his immune system )was the best thing I ever did for him. Your homeopathic remedies did the trick for my poor sick boy and he returned to normal health within a few weeks of the last remedy/treatment. He was restored to his sweet happy self. You were so patient and kind in analyzing the situation for me. The Vet bills were killing me. I'm now going to treat my female, Jilly for her chronic bladder problem and I have hope thanks to you, again. Please keep up the fine work and the care you have for our beloved pets. I have recommended you to several people already and will continue to do so!!! With Much Sincere Appreciation,

Michael and Marlene, I had to write and let you know my wonderful news! I sought out information on the internet in March of this year on how to help my Allie girl, (a 6 year old small mixed breed) and stumbled onto your site. Allie has a heart condition which requires Enacard daily to maintain her health. This medicine however can be damaging to the kidneys, at our March vet visit I was told she had protein in her urine. She also had a knot on her leg that they wanted to remove for cosmetic reasons, and they wanted to clean her teeth while they had her under anesthesia. Thank you for your Natural Canine site! Thanks to you, your natural diet, Hokamix and your other products from your site I have a different pup! We visited the vet this week and Rhonda, was very impressed! (Rhonda is our vet and a Virginia Tech Graduate whom we couldn't do without!) Allie has no signs of any kidney problems, no protein in her urine. Her knot on her leg is getting smaller and her teeth are cleaner than they have ever been! Allie is black and her hair around her face had started to turn white, her hair is coming in black in those areas again, she has the energy she had a few years ago, and she has lost 2 pounds! ( weight is a big concern with her heart and she is at a perfect weight now) I can not get over the change in her and neither could Rhonda. I cook her meals along with mine, it is very simple and I never have to worry about running out of dog food! Allie knows when I am cooking for her. She stands in the kitchen and watches every move I make, afraid she'll miss something dropping on the floor. This change was a very small sacrifice to make for the LARGE reward it has given us. When our vet called with the test results I almost cried. I will admit, I was afraid I wasn't doing for Allie what I should be with all of this being so new but I know now that NATURAL is the ONLY way to go! No animal in my house will ever eat something processed out of a bag again! Thanks for all your advice! We will keep you informed or her progress. Words can never tell you how much it means to know I have a healthy Allie girl! Keep up the good work! Thanks again, JHM

Dear Michael and Marlene, Thank you so much for your wonderful website and concern! Grace is doing so much better after her treatment with the mange kit. It's time to re-order. I have told all my friends about the success of this treatment and my vet is amazed at the results. I am so glad I held of and did not proceed with the suggested traditional method of the mitaban dip! I will be a forever client! Fondly, Anne B

Our Golden Retriever was only one year old but his hips were already diminishing his quality of life. He couldn't jump on the bed anymore and a short run would cause him to limp for several hours. Our trainer suggested Hokamix and I could never thank her enough for it. Within weeks there was a drastic improvement. He seemed happier and we haven't seen another limp and he can jump on anything in the house now, I'm not sure that's such a good thing:).

A few months ago I was searching the internet to find some help for our little dog, Hope (aka Hopeydog). She wouldn't jump up anymore and seemed depressed. You suggested Hokamix, etc. My Mom paid for a trip to the vet for Hopeydog. The vet prescribed an aspirin with Maalox coating. That was a good temporary fix to her obvious pain when trying to jump up onto the bed. She still couldn't make it up, though. You were patient and assured me that the vet's remedy was only a temporary fix but that Hokamix would make a difference. I bought some and began making Hopey's food. She loved it and seemed starved all the time. I increased the amount I was giving her. Now we have our old Hopeydog back! She jumps up and is so energetic! She even lost 5 pounds! The lady who occasionally watches her while we are out of town said she's like a different dog altogether! Before Hokamix, walking Hopeydog was embarrassing. After just a short time she'd sit down and we'd have to carry her. Now she practically RUNS us throughout the entire walk! Thank you for giving the old Hopeydog back to us!

I am very glad I found your site, and that you were so patient with me in the beginning when I was a nervous wreck and couldn't figure anything out by myself. I definitely do panic. Putting my doggies on this natural diet was the best thing I ever could have done. They even eat when we are on vacation now! That amazed me. I have never in 6 years been able to keep Bodie on a regular feeding schedule while out of town. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your extensive help! I have printed this message for my reference. The change in weather sounds right on, and I have had a Dobe who reacted to a couch we had. I was trying to do some research as to whether my dog's problem was food related or his thyroid acting up. Again, thank you for your help!
Sincerely, Lisa

I just wanted to relay to you how enormously pleased Russell and I are with Dusty's progress. I just took her to the vet for her weigh-in and she's at 39.3 pounds now, almost 6 pounds heavier than two weeks ago. Taking into account that I've started exercising her again (walking about 2 miles a day), and that I've cut her back from 5 meals a day to 4, I think that's pretty extraordinary.

We haven't started Chunk and Willie on their homemade diets yet because we'd just bought a new bag of food, but we'll start their transition in the next couple of weeks and I'm anxious to see what changes will happen with them. Please keep up the good work and we'll keep spreading the word. In our opinion, at least, you saved our dog's life. Paula

"Putting Max on Hokamix was the best thing we have ever done for him. I couldn't comprehend not spending such a reasonable amount of money to give Max a second shot at being a puppy. We would completely recommend this product to any dog owner. We had tried other supplements before but he either wouldn't eat them or we didn't notice a change. He licks the Hokamix out of his bowl and is much healthier; no one can believe the new found life in our prematurely "old" dog." David & Laura Beach,

About five months ago my beloved Doberman came down with bone marrow cancer. Unfortunately it was too late for us to save him and we had to put him down. I became very concerned with the connection between illness and diet as I had been feeding my dogs regular store bought dog food. I investigated alternatives for our animals on the web and found the Natural Canine site. I contacted the owner Michael Forte and he was very helpful with helping me through my grief as well as educating me on the correct nutrition for our pets. We have put our other dogs and cat on a natural regime of chicken, rice, veggies and the Hokamix, enzymes, oils, and vitamins. I have noticed a huge improvement with our animals. Their fur is soft and shinny, they have wonderful energy, their stools are normal and healthy, and they are at the perfect weight. I am a firm believer that natural food should be the only thing that we feed our animals and ourselves to ensure healthy, happy, and long lives! I want to know that my animals are getting optimum nutrition. My in-laws are also now following the Natural Canine nutrition program for their dogs and they are thrilled with the health benefits that they have seen also! Not only that but we are saving money on food and vet bills! Our dogs are so healthy they no longer have needed to go to the vet. We are so grateful to Michael Forte and his wife for their wonderful products and educational support. We thank them and especially my pets thank them. Kether Dec 1999 - MORE
