Are the eyes of a dog a mirror of his health? According to Iridologists, the health of your dog is mirrored in the eyes and can be determined through the study of the eye of the dog’s fiber structure, color and markings of the iris of the eye.
What is Iridology for Dogs?
Through the study of assessment of markings within a dogs iris, Iridologists claim they can detect past, present and future health issues to play a role in the diagnosis of current health problems and prevention of potentially harmful disease.
An Iridologist is an alternative health practitioner who claims that patterns, colors, and other characteristics of the iris can be examined to determine information about a dog’s systemic health. Iridologists do not have to be licensed in the United States or Canada.
The theory of iridology dates back to the 17th Century, however iridology has yet to be recognized by mainstream medicine.
Iridologists will carefully examine the iris of a dog’s eye, and match it to iris charts, to identify systems and organs in the dog’s body that may be inflamed, underactive or overactive. However, an Iridologist cannot diagnose specific diseases.
Why use Iridology?
Animal Iridologists claim that the iris records information about a dog’s past and present health and that by identifying what the patterns reveal, they can help dog owners understand what processes are taking place in a dog.
At times an owner suspect there is something wrong with their dog but have no diagnosis by a veterinarian. In these cases they claim iridology is a powerful tool the can be used to:
- Help identify past and present health issues in a new pet.
- Identify current health strengths and weaknesses to improve diet and health care.
- Can identify health strength and weakness before breeding.
- Reveal underlying physical problems that may contribute to behavior problems.
- Identify potential health concerns.
- Asses changes in performance and behavior.
- Monitor current and future health to identify potential problems.
In a nutshell, Iridology helps dog owners to become more aware of their dog’s strengths and weaknesses so owners can be more conscious of what they can do to help them live long and healthy lives.
As a dog owner, if you are interested in iridology for your dog, it is possible to find a reputable iridologist, an iridologist that is also a DVM, or an iridologist that is a member of the American Council of Animal Naturopathy.
