Thank you, Dr. Jeff. And Nancy and Ginny, I’ll be looking at all of the above….

Hi Nancy, I did wonder about that possibility, so I will take a look at the liver especially to see how much she’s actually getting….and will also look at the copper, too. I really appreciate your suggestions! Thank you very much, Jackiei this is really helpful, Nancy. Thank you for putting...

Hi My almost 2 year old Golden Retriever (not spayed) eating mostly raw food diet) and generally good BEAM has vomited for the past two mornings. Her appetite seems good though after vomiting this morning it took her a little while to get excited to eat but she eventually did. She’s been...

Hi, I’m looking for some guidance as we leave for vacation this week and will be taking our Golden Retriever, 1-1/2 years old….My question has to do with whether she should be allowed to swim in salt water. I’m asking because our last Golden, a male who had seizures did swim in salt water when...

Thank you, Dr Jeff. I hadn’t heard of this procedure that Ginny mentioned. I’ll look up Dr. Lazarus….and check out the HA!! Video course about spaying. 😊

Your right, I’m sorry I didn’t understand. I’ll look into this….

Thank you—good advice! I’ll keep her close and in our yard until I’m sure that she’s past the fertile period. We are waiting because the breeder feels that it helps them with issues (hormonal, cancer, etc) in addition to growing ((better bone structure, etc)).

Hi I have a specific question related to the heat cycle….Sophie has not bled in a few days. I think that this is the time that she is most fertile. Does anyone know how long this lasts in general? She’s doing fine, I’ve been keeping her on a leash and I’m out backyard as I don’t want her to...

Thank you, Dr. Jeff! This is really helpful….

Thank you Dr Jeff: I think I’m not measuring BEAM as I should….I’ll look into that. I appreciate the suggestion about the organ meats and the farmhounds site—I’ll definitely add some to her diet.

Thank you Dr Hofve: I appreciate the suggestion of sweet potato and adding about 10 percent, as I don’t want to overdo it.

Thank you Dr Christina, I’ll look at all of the resources and try to seek help from a homeopathic vet about any imbalance she may have….

One more thing to add to the above list that I forgot to share. I mentioned this to Dr Jeff….she has the habit of eating her poop. I understand that there are a variety of reasons but one of them, could be that she’s not getting enough nutrients from what I’ve read. This is Not a new...

Hi, My Golden Retriever, Sophie, 17 months old, seems to be underweight. I’m not sure what her weight is now, last time at the vet she was 65lbs. Though you can see her ribs and she’s quite thin. Her BEAM seems very good to me, though behavior wise, she is eating sticks in out backyard when...

Thank you Ginny, that gives me a basic idea of what to look out for—I appreciate your help. Jackie
