8 y/o Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever with thyroid and allergy problems

I have a female Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. She is about 8 years old. I am told she is typical of the Goldens in that her Thyroid Gland seems to be non existent. She has very bad seasonal allergies.

I’ve had two blood tests done for her. We have her on 4 different pills that are just barely effective.

Thank You

    Hi,

    Do you vaccinate her on a normal basis? If so, I would STOP all vaccines. I would feed her a fresh raw organic diet and there are several supplements and homeopathic remedies you could give her. It is possible to reverse thyroid problems around with the proper homeopathic remedy.
