Joey Green’s Amazing Pet Cures: 1,138 Simple Pet Remedies Us…
$17.99
From the man who knows how to fertilize houseplants with Jell-O and give someone a dry shampoo with Quaker Oats comes the first book of pet care tips that tackles everyday pet illnesses, quirky behaviors, and animal smells and stains by tapping into the power of brand-name products.
The ever-inventive Joey Green presents fun and offbeat remedies for a wide range of pet troubles, from bad breath and skunks to hot spots and ticks. Who would have guessed that ChapStick stops a nail bleed or that Listerine can quell itching? Why not forego expensive and toxic flea sprays and use Dawn dishwashing liquid or Johnson’s Baby Powder as a treatment instead?
Even though these tips sound quirky (use Smirnoff vodka to clean your pet’s ears?), they really do work because many brand-name products contain soaps, degreasers, emollients, and moisturizers to soothe, clean, dissolve, and heal quickly and safely. Joey Green’s Amazing Pet Cures makes a great gift for pet lovers and is a practical guide for anyone looking for simple and easy shortcuts to live the good life with a pet.

Truly Amazing, Must Have, Book if You Have a Pet,
I wouldn’t be without this book. I was so totally blown away with all of the information in it I started telling friends and relatives about it right away. Some of them have already purchased the book after glancing through mine. The cures are easy, inexpensive and have saved me trips to the vet already. I would recommend this book to everyone. Joey has sections for all kinds of pets including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and more.

If you are interested in organic pet care, then this is the book for you. It provides you with tips and organic solutions for pet care. Not just dogs and cats, either – it includes fish, hamsters, gerbils, horses, rabbits, reptiles and amphibians. It covers a whole range of topics such as pet care, training, how to break bad habits, how to treat specific ailments, when it’s time to call in a vet, etc. I learned a lot about alternative pet care.

This book was very interesting. I did learn alot of new tricks and uses for things. Mostly all of the remedies that were in the book were using things that you already have in the house, so that was very nice, and convenient!! The seller shipped the book quickly to me as well.

pet cures and tips
I bought 3 of this book to give as gifts and at a lot cheaper price from Amazon than I would have had to pay threw the mail advertisements. They wanted 4 payments of $7.99 plus shipping and handling. This book is well worth the price I have use so many of the tips already and plan on using more.You know how you sometimes have a musty pet smell on your furniture or carpet well, I used Pine-Sol (page 209)to deodorize pet odors put 1/4c Pine-Sol into a 16oz trigger-spray bottle filled with water. Be sure to shake it good then spray it lightly on carpets and upholstered furniture. After, it dried I ran the carpet sweeper and furniture brush over the carpet and furniture; it doesn’t say to do that I just do. It leaves my house smelling fantastic and I love Pine-Sol I always mop my floors with it. If you have a rabbit you can clean your bunny or any of your animals and get rid of loose hairs by wiping them with a hypoallergenic fragrance-free Huggies Baby Wipe. It works great (page 221). You can use butter or oil on your pets paws once in awhile to help with hairballs. FLEAS grr! (page 110)I know this works cause I have been doing it for over 50 years now -Sprinkle about a tsp of brewer’s yeast and/or garlic powder over your pets food. I have not had to buy any chemical products since I have been doing this. And I do have to worry about bringing the fleas in from my yard or open porch where I see stray cats, squirrels, raccoons, possums and skunk all scratching their selves. But, knock on wood my babies are free of fleas. I even rub the yeast and powder on them once in a while to be extra sure especially in the spring and fall. Hope you get the book and it helps you, as much as, it did me. Happy reading.

Helpful for a pet lover
I love my book, I have had for about a month and I have read over half the book. It has a lot of remedies that are simple and easy to use. I have already bought huggies wet wipes and are using them on my cat, she has skin allergies and it works. I wipe her down two times a day. I have used the tick removal options also. I think it would help anyone that is interested in helping there pets. Thank you Amazon.com

a fun book to have….
Just do not believe the “hype” about needing to use the name brand products the author says are needed. ANY generic brand would work!

Very helpful for your pets!
It tells me what to do like telling my daughter and friend who had flea problems. I am on low income and couldn’t afford vets. My other friend simply tells friends to take dogs to vet for fleas. When I told my friend who had cats w fleas, it worked for them! Thanks for the book! I learned to use Downy and Baby Shampoo that helped smoothe my Pom dog. He has very thick fur and could be matted.

Amazing Pet Cures
This book is on Pet care. The author seems to be in command of his subject matter and this is a good book. I have gotten many lessons out of this book. The tips on removal of fleas from the dogs and their environment have been really beneficial and that alone was worth the price of the book.
