Energy Healing for Dogs, by Nicole Wilde, can provide you with a useful tool for helping your dog stay healthy or become healthy.

I remember my mother-in-law sending our aging Rhodesian Ridgeback, Cider, Reiki healing from 1000 miles away, years ago. Cider got somewhat better, and I figured it could have been the Reiki. I’ved used TTouch, and we once made a program about it, the Tellington TTouch for Happier Healthier Dogs (link to my article about it here on this site).So energy healing is right up my alley.

Nicole Wilde is a well-known dog trainer who is also a Reiki Master and her two interests combine well in this book. Here is the Table of Contents, which really gives you a good idea of what she writes about. I found this at her website, NicoleWilde.com
