Abstract
Veterinary homeopathy was recognised as a specialty in Brazil in 2000, during the
25th Brazilian Congress of Homeopathy. This career has been expanding more and more
since then, both in relation to the treatment of dogs and cats, such as cattle, pigs,
goats, chickens and even wildlife. If there is a way to really prove the efficacy
of homeopathy, it is through the effectiveness of its results in animals, which cannot
be influenced to heal but by curative vital energy that returns animals to health
and assists in their wellness. There are specialised courses across the country, to
train professionals to meet the growing demands of those people who believe in homeopathy
as a curative and preventive method and bring their animals for treatment. This short
explanation cites the influence of veterinary homeopathy in Brazil since the beginning
of the century, and shows the curriculum used in the existing specialisation courses
in Brazil.
