What’s Different About Consulting Sara Rooney?

Sara provides professional naturopathic health care advice from a scientific, evidence-based background and offers effective treatment solutions using superior herbal formulas and nutrient therapies. Most veterinarians lack a comprehensive understanding of herbal medicines and nutrient therapies and many animal naturopaths do not have a scientific background. However, Sara has extensive scientific credentials in the animal sciences, Zoology and health sciences as well as comprehensive qualifications in naturopathic medicine, herbal medicine, nutrient therapies and homoeopathy. In addition, Sara has over 18 years of clinical experience and she was also a senior lecturer in herbal medicine and naturopathic health. She is the author of ‘Heal Your Dog Naturally’, the ground-breaking book on natural dog health and the underlying causes of common health problems in dogs and she is also the president of the Holistic Animal Therapy Organisation (HATO). Sara only ever uses and recommends superior-quality herbal medicines and nutrient therapies for dogs which is why her clients get results.

Allow me to introduce myself…

Sar and ‘Alistair’

I have been surrounded with animals since my early childhood and my first dog, a Silky Terrier called ‘Cindy’, was also my first best friend and favorite life companion. Since then, I have never been without a dog and life would seem odd if there wasn’t at least one tail wagging when I came home from work. When I was young, I always had a strong desire to be a Zoologist. I assume this was due to my love for all animals and my eagerness to understand and help them. However, as a young adult, I decided to take a different path and, after many years of study, became a Naturopathic Physician and Health Scientist – not realizing at that time how these credentials would increase my knowledge when it came to helping animals. I then completed a diploma in animal science so I would better understand animal physiology, which allowed me to treat animals with natural remedies in a safe and effective manner.

Many years ago, while studying a Bachelor of Health Science at university, I would walk past the Zoology department on the university campus, on my way to health science lectures, and would dream about what it would be like attending lectures in Zoology instead! I didn’t have to dream for too long. After years of clinical practice and lecturing final year naturopathic students, I decided to return to the very same university and complete a degree in Zoology. I then decided to take my dream a step further and went on to complete post graduate research in evaluating herbal medicines and nutrient therapies in the treatment of companion animals. My dream of using my broad knowledge base to help animals and being involved in evidence-based natural medicine in the treatment of animals had finally come true!

I now specialize in canine health care and believe I have one of the most satisfying and enjoyable occupations in the world and I am passionate about helping dog owners resolve health problems in their pets with high-quality herbal and nutrient therapies.

What I Do

I have been studying health and the medical sciences, zoology, naturopathic medicine and the animal sciences for over 20 years and have been successfully treating dogs skin problems, dogs joint problems and other dog symptoms and dog disorders during that time. Health is something that has interested me for most of my adult life as I believe if we don’t have fabulous health – we have nothing. Therefore, I have studied many aspects of health (both mainstream and natural medicine) to determine the best methods possible of achieving excellent health and I draw on that knowledge whenever I am treating dog disorders. I view disease quite differently to most mainstream veterinarians and always aim to treat and reverse the underlying causes to dog symptoms and dog disorders – rather than just treating their presenting symptoms. I find this system of treating dogs usually provides complete recovery of their problems, once the underlying issues have been addressed.

I help my clients to identify what their dog really needs to allow their body to repair, heal and function at a high level in order to enjoy optimal health and high vitality and to help prevent diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and other health problems. I believe our health is the most valuable thing we have in life and feel that we should honour our body and do everything we can to maintain our health and prevent disease and I have the same philosophy when it comes to our pets.

I offer an online consulting service to clients throughout Australia and overseas, so they can access professional naturopathic health advice and high-grade herbal medicines and nutrient therapies for their dog without leaving home.

When it comes to dog disorders, I specialize in dogs skin problems, especially itching and hot spots on dogs, chronic ear infections, allergies, anxiety in dogs, arthritis, digestive and hormonal imbalances and other dog symptoms and dog disorders and I have helped many dogs around the world achieve optimum health by resolving their health problems and preventing future disease. I really enjoy seeing positive results from using the correct remedies for dogs that are well-prescribed, high-quality naturopathic medicines and formulas to resolve dog disorders.

In my book “Heal Your Dog Naturally,” I cover the most likely causes of common health problems in dogs and provide easy solutions regarding how to reverse these problems. If you read my book, I hope you find it to be really helpful when it comes to treating your dog successfully at home as well as helping to prevent any health problems in the future.

When I’m not consulting or doing research, you will find me out walking, cycling, weight training, gardening in our organic vegetable garden, planting trees on our property, reading, or watching a good comedy with my husband. We also have a small menagerie of animals to take care of including 2 elderly dogs, 2 Bengal cats, a pony, 3 pet sheep, a long-billed corella and a pet rabbit called ‘Harold’ who we rescued many years ago and who is still with us.

If you decide to consult me for naturopathic health advice for your dog, I look forward to helping you achieve all of your goals for your dog so they can enjoy excellent health, high vital energy and a long, happy and healthy life!
