The first book by Dr. Karen Becker and Rodney Habib – The Forever Dog – has been published in more than 20 languages and has become a worldwide best seller. I personally have this book (actually 3 copies to lend to friends), and consult it often. It’s hard to believe that these two consumer advocates could outdo themselves with a second book…but they have, in a BIG way.
Their second book is titled The Eternal Life of the Dog. If you’re a cat person, don’t let the book’s title put you off. There are MANY things that cats and dogs can benefit from this book. Just like…
For cats and dogs – there are dozens of treat recipes that promote health, treats with a purpose.
For cats and dogs – there are complete and balanced food recipes, each one explained in great detail so that even an inexperienced home cook can prepare them. The book explains the kitchen tools you’ll need, the best food storage products. The recipes are developed for high energy to low energy needs, and provide (again) detailed easy-to-understand instructions on how much food to feed your pet to meet their specific needs. There’s even a QR code in the book to get access to hundreds more recipes online.
Without missing any part of the whole puzzle of caring for our pets, The Forever Dog Life includes many recipes for safe household cleaners, pet shampoos (including safe home-made flea shampoo), eye wash, ear cleaner, mosquito spray, and on and on.
Most pet owners know why they need to make changes to their pet’s diet or home, but the ‘how’ can seem overwhelming. Many never take that first step because they don’t know where to find the information they need, or they can find it and it’s too complicated to deal with.
Now you have easy access to high-quality recipes, prepared in a simple way to understand and simple to implement.
The book is beautiful, the information is beyond wonderful and necessary. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to do better for their pets. If you just want to give your pet some healthier food or if you want to use everything – food, treats, cleaning products – this is the book for you.
Personal note: The authors of this book are friends – the best of friends. This book review was NOT requested by any of them. They are so smart, so good, so knowledgeable – they don’t need to ask for reviews from their friends. I have had a copy of Forever Dog Life for a few weeks…and I waited to write about it until I read it. Because I’m confident others will find, when you read their work, and you care about pets/do better for pets – it’s a natural reaction to want to share the book with others. My two cents…get this book.
Wishing you and your pet(s) the best,
