New video designed to help owners deal with the care and treatment of handicapped pets. The video includes a wide range of treatments including special nutrition diets, acupuncture, magnetic therapy, and infrared light. The holistic pet treatments were inspired by a paralyzed German Shepherd dog “Sheba.” Sheba had the incurable spinal cord disease degenerative myelopathy.
