Animal naturopath, Dr. Kim Bloomer’s interest in the world of animal health goes back to her childhood when as a ten-year old she proclaimed she’d be a veterinarian when she “grows up“. Dr. Kim later proceeded to work in a variety of animal-related jobs with her first job in a pet store where she noticed the health of the animals less than desirable. She then went on to work in various dog kennels and eventually veterinary medicine.
Through her own natural health self-discovery as Fine Arts major with a dance emphasis at the University of NM, Dr. Kim desired to always know more about natural health and then apply what she learned to her own health.
Because of her training in traditional veterinary medicine she thought all she did for her wonderful dogs was the right way to care for them although there was always a bit of nagging doubt in the back of her mind.
Through the love of her three special dogs, a Great Dane, a Golden Retriever and now a Neapolitan Mastiff, Dr. Kim learned what her dogs needed all along to thrive and not just survive. She felt compelled to share that knowledge with the world rather than rest upon that knowledge for her own benefit.
This led to her ongoing blogging efforts to share how to care for animals naturally, with a special emphasis on dogs, by writing about it. Her blogging efforts culminated in her co-authoring the book Whole Health for Happy Dogs. Her writing has been published on many websites such as Suite101.com, in newspapers, and in magazines such as Animal Wellness Magazine, Natural Horse Magazine, Pet Connection, and Dogs Naturally Magazine. Her blog, Bark N Blog, has been named one of the top 50 written by veterinarians and one of the top 100 for pet owners by the staff of Veterinary Technician Schools Online. Dr. Kim is currently writing the monthly Desert Friends column for the New Mexico Breeze News Magazine.
Dr. Kim's latest book, Animals Taught Me That: a memoir of the life lessons learned through God's creatures is available through Crossbooks. Find out more at http://www.AnimalsTaughtMeThat.com
She hosts a weekly online radio show, Animal Talk Naturally, with like-minded colleague, Dr. Jeannie Thomason. Join the LIVE show each week on BlogTalk Radio on Wednesdays at 2:30 PM Eastern.
Dr. Kim is adjunct professor in the natural animal health program at Kingdom College of Natural Health and Co-Founder of the American Council of Animal Naturopathy.
Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Dr. Kim Bloomer
The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the hold of the cobra, and the young child put his hand into the viper's nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. ~Isaiah 11:6-9, NIV
But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind. ~ Job 12:7-10, NIV
All truth passes through three stages:
First, it is Ridiculed.
Second, it is Violently Opposed.
Third, it is Accepted as being Self-Evident.
~Arthur Schopenhauer
An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation nor does truth become error because no one will see it. ~ Mahatma Ghandi
Even if you’re in a minority of one, the truth is still the truth. ~ Mahatma Ghandi
Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance. ~ Albert Einstein
Centuries from now it will not matter about the house we lived in or how much money we made in a lifetime.....but the world may be better because we helped some of God's little animals on this earth during our time here. ~Unknown
Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.
~Anatole France
While fear may drive us to survive it is love that enables us to thrive. ~ Author unknown
