Pollution, stress, and toxins can drain your dogs body of vital nutrients. Adding raw foods to its diet certainly can help in replenishing them; using herbal nutritional supplements can help to provide your dog a balanced premium food.
Dogs in the wild medicate themselves with medicinal herbs and various plants knowing instinctively which ones they need. Generally herbal nutritional supplements are far cheaper than veterinary drugs (one reason why your veterinarian ignores them) and far safer. Herbs are specific in their healing abilities, so familiarizing yourself with the properties of each nutritional supplement can greatly assist in pet medication.

For your dog to be able to absorb and use nutritional supplements effectively, they need to be in the natural forms. In order to save money, lots of herbal supplements use lower forms. (They're cheaper to purchase.) But your dogs body can't absorb and use these cheaper supplements. Synthetic nutritional supplements you've paid for simply pass through your dog and are eliminated -- providing no benefits at all! Therefore, while these inferior supplements are cheaper to buy, they're really a waste of money in the long run.
