course provides an overview of treating chronic disease in animals. You
will learn: how to take a case and evaluate the symptoms; how to use
the repertory and "translate" it for use with animals; how to analyze
the case and use the materia medica to select the best remedy; how to
choose the correct potency; and, most important, how to evaluate an

Case Studies in Animal Homeopathy
Instructor: Christina Chambreau, DVM
Prerequisite: Intermediate Homeopathic Animal Care, Dr. Richard Pitcairn's year-long course, or other comprehensive training.
Description:This
interactive course is for those who already use the repertory and have
been prescribing for animals at the chronic disease level for at least
a few months. Even experienced prescribers can benefit from analyzing
cases and tapping into the expertise of fellow prescribers. Bring cases
for which you are not getting the results you desire. Maybe you are
confused about the response to the remedy, the remedy selection itself,
or deciding when to represcribe. Together, we will deepen our ability
to treat animals homeopathically. You may wish to repeat this course
because the content is different each year.
Take
your choice: either take the two-day Part I on the weekend, the
three-day Part II on Monday through Wednesday, or take both to get five
full days of case studies.
