Is it possible for your dog to get the swine flu from a human who contracted the swine virus  from a pig? Seems like these viruses have crossed the line of human to animal and back to human to another species. It makes one wonder what is being cooked up in those laboratories these days.

You would think there would be a real effort to cure diseases rather than create new ones. No one believes that a virus from 1918 could surface again unless it was released from a lab.

Well back to dogs now. Do Dogs get the human H1N1 virus? No.  Do they get other viruses? Yes. Can they be cured and prevented yes.

Here is what to do: Take your dog to a holistic veterinarian for a summary of what symptoms your dog has currently and a whole health assessment.  The holistic vets can be found in each state at this site:

American Holistic Veterinarian Medical Association.

There are many herbs and supplements you can use to prevent flu the natural way without vaccines, drugs or chemicals.
