"I've seen animal food with herbs in them, but some pet owners told me it was difficult to get their pet to eat it. I decided to extract the herbs in a glycerine formula; making it slightly sweet, and easily dripped onto your pet's regular food." received his Masters at Emperor’s College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and opened his private practice in 2006 in West Hollywood, California. He now has three locations and is currently working on his Doctorate at Yo San University specializing in Healthy Aging and Longevity. His practice has mostly been with people but after the lack of natural products available for animals, and being an animal lover himself, he decided he would work with Veterinarians in helping create a natural product line for some of the most common ailments a pet owner might encounter. "As much as I love animals, I am not a veterinarian. You should get a proper diagnosis before administrating herbs.” Kyle Burton, L.Ac.

Shaving your dog's hair in the summer may do more harm than good. Contrary to popular belief, a dog's coat actually helps them regulate their body temperature, deflecting the sun's heat rather than absorbing it. Furthermore, cutting it too short can expose a dog's skin to harmful UV rays, potentially causing sunburn.
As heat waves hit, you might wonder whether or not your dog needs a haircut to cool off. Find out if you should give your dog a summer haircut.

While occasional grass ingestion by dogs is considered normal, excessive consumption can indicate underlying health issues, such as poor nutrition or boredom. Moreover, not all grass is safe to eat as it may be treated with pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers, which can be toxic to dogs. If your pet is eating grass frequently, it's recommended to consult a vet and ensure their diet is adequately balanced.
Studies in Yellowstone National Park show plant matter (mostly grass) is found in up to 74% of wolf scats, suggesting the behaviour may be inherited from the beginning of doggy time.

A recent exploration into the uncanny resemblance between dogs and their owners has revealed some fascinating insights that might just cause a chuckle—or a doppelgänger dog search! While it’s widely believed that pets mirror their owners in looks and behavior, studies show that this connection runs deeper than just a shared cup of coffee or a love for long walks. In fact, a survey found that 88% of dog owners believe their pets reflect their personality!
Moreover, when it comes to physical traits, researchers discovered that people often choose dogs that look somewhat like them, whether intentionally or not. It appears that a fluffy hairdo and goofy smile can be a match made in canine heaven. In a surprising twist, the findings reveal that not only do people resemble their pets, but the mutual affection seems to amplify these similarities, leading to what might be dubbed the "mutual mirroring effect." So if your dog is sporting a dad bod and a love for pizza, you might want to reflect on your own lifestyle choices!
Now, for the takeaway: If you're looking to adopt a dog, be prepared to confront the startling truth that Fido may end up sharing more than just your couch space—he might just start to resemble you, too!
A systematic review of several studies offers insight.

It turns out that those tiny probiotic superheroes that help our guts digest pizza can also help our furry friends shed a few extra pounds. A recent study revealed that adding a specific strain of probiotics—Lactobacillus fermentum—to dogs' diets not only contributed to weight loss but also boosted their overall health. In the trial, the dogs fed this probiotic lost around 7% of their body weight over a 90-day period without severe lifestyle changes, which might just be the magic trick many pet owners have been looking for. So, if your pup's been eyeing that last slice of cake, consider reaching for the probiotic instead—it might help them slim down while keeping their tummy happy. Who knew gut health was the new secret weapon in the battle of the bulge for canines?
New research has identified two strains of probiotics that can promote weight loss in dogs: Enterococcus faecium and Bifidobacterium lactis.

In a delightful twist in the ever-evolving world of pet cuisine, insect protein is emerging as the sustainable and nutritious new kid on the block for our furry friends. The article throws a spotlight on a few unexpected facts: did you know that crickets are packed with protein, boasting a staggering 60-70% protein content by weight? They may not win any beauty pageants, but these critters are rich in essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that could give your dog or cat a real leg up in their diets.
Interestingly, while you might think that Fido would turn his nose up at a bowl of bug-based kibble, studies reveal that pets are often surprisingly unfazed by the change and may even find it tastier than traditional meat sources. In trials, over 75% of pets preferred the flavor of insect protein over other protein sources—yes, you read that right, 75%!
The real kicker here is that insect farming is far more eco-friendly than traditional livestock farming, using significantly less land and water while producing fewer greenhouse gas emissions. So not only are you giving your pet a high-quality meal, but you’re also doing your part to save the planet. Who knew that snacking on bugs could be so good for both pets and the environment? It looks like the future of pet food might just have a bit of a creepy-crawly twist!
Would you feed your pet fly larvae, mealworms, or crickets? We asked a veterinarian about the pros and cons of insect protein pet food.

Our Story
Dr. Kyle Burton was visiting his family and noticed his brother’s dog, Zoey, was itching intensely. Zoey even had missing patches of hair from scratching so much it would fall out. The veterinarian said it was allergies and gave him medication but unfortunately it wasn't working at relieving the progressive itch. Already being an established herbalist and acupuncturist in West Hollywood and Los Angeles, Dr. Burton wanted to combine his love of Traditional Chinese Medicine with his love for animals. He completed advanced educational courses in safely treating animals with traditional herbal formulas. He made his first herbal extract and mailed it to his brother. His dog responded quickly. The itching decreased within a couple doses and after a few weeks there was a full coat of healthy, shiny hair.
Speaking to his patients with pets, Dr. Burton learned there was a real need for more natural medicine for pets. Allergies, Arthritis, and Anxiety were the most common complaints his patients told him so he created three separate herbal extracts to help with each ailment. He plans to grow the line to help other common symptoms cats and dogs suffer and loves hearing feedback on the products.
Healthy Paws Herbals are now available in stores around Los Angeles, West Hollywood, Calabasas, Santa Monica, and Malibu.
Dr. Kyle Burton received his Masters at Emperor’s College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and his Doctorate at Yo San University specializing in Healthy Aging and Longevity. He opened his private practice in 2006 in West Hollywood, California and now has a location in downtown L.A.
