C. Edgar Sheaffer, VMD, discusses an age-old technique of worming horses in
accordance with the lunar cycle, and incorporating an herbal blend known as Animal Ace which includes apple cider vinegar, cloves, and echinacea. Dr. Sheaffer, (clarkvetclinic.com), graduated from Gettysburg College (1965) and the University Of Pennsylvania School Of Veterinary Medicine(1970). For many years he conducted herd health checks for the Amish and Mennonite farmers of east-central Pennsylvania. His conventional veterinary practice changed when he attended a seminar by British veterinary homeopath George Macleod, who later became Dr. Sheaffer’s mentor in this specialized branch of veterinary medicine. Now a holistic consultant, Dr. Sheaffer, and his wife write a monthly column for Acres USA and lecture widely on holistic subjects specifically, homeopathic medicine.
