Hi–my dog has elevated liver levels and is acting very tired, lethargic and not herself. So far, vets have been unable to pinpoint the problem. I would like help in a naturopathic treatment plan to bolster her liver.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
Thank you for the article on CDS last week, but it was too short. It sounds like my dog might have this. What is the drug that can help?
Thank You
A friend of mine has a puppy & after getting it’s third Parvo vaccine the Puppy ended up with Parvo. The puppy lived but it was just awful & the expense was tremendous so I just wanted to see if there was any recalls or issues with Parvo vaccines.
Thank you for getting back to me.
We have a 11 month old French Bulldog that has had Chronic Diarrhea since we got him. We just spent a ton of money testing fecal, urine, blood, allergies, etc. at a specialist and they couldn’t find anything. What could this be and what can we do to help the little guy? Could this maybe IBS? What can you do in that case?
My 13 year old mixed breed dog has been diagnosed with liver problems. His belly was distended and the vet removed quite a bit of liquid. She has 2 Lipoform chew tablets daily, Amoxicillin 500 mg cap 1 twice daily for 10 days, Benazepril 10 mg once daily, Furosemide 50 mg, 1/2 tablet twice daily to control fluid in abdomen. Is there any other treatment available to help with the fluid problem, to keep him comfortable, and hopefully extend his life? Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
My Pom-Poo has been diagnosed with a collasping trachea, he coughs constantly and is taking Predisone….which doesn’t seem to do much except make him eat more and gain weight, which in turn will put more pressure on his windpipe….Is there anything else I can do. I would like to get him off this perscripton.
Thank You
We have a sweet male labrador, approximately 9 years old. A few months ago he started excreting loose bloody stool. It wasn’t consistent but became more frequent over time and in addition to blood, mucus was present in the loose stool. We noticed his anal glands terribly swollen.
The vet checked and stated he had developed an infection most likely from the blood and irritation. The blood and mucus was excessive at this point. He was put on antibiotics and they also performed a biopsy which came back inconclusive- blood counts were fine. The swelling eventually went down.
The vet was unsure what to make of the situation. Would an x-ray be able to help shed light on what might be ailing him?
He exhibits no discomfort and his appetite and demeanor are normal. He continues to squat frequently with visible strain but little comes out, just drops of loose stool with blood.
Our vet urges us to go to a specialist for further testing but our plan does not cover these costs. We are struggling to figure out what our next step should be.
HELP!!!!!!
Thank You!
I am the director of a small non profit animal shelter. Today I had a 7# , 7 week old puppy looks like, a lab x turned into me with a severe case of strangles.. Her lymph nodes are enlarged and her glands are swollen The puppy is going on her sixth day of prednisone. My vet added an antibiotic also. The thing is I would also like to add some sort of holistic treatment to help her along but I am looking for guidance as to what would be best for her. This is our first case of strangles and from what I have read so far I believe I should give her a supplement of Glucosamine chondroitin and apply aloe vera or chlorhexadine. Any advice that you can give me to help this poor little girl would be greatly appreciated.
