Thanks for this info @Dr. Sara -- I use this monthly for Charlie! Kristen

@JodyMY -- I have the book that Dr. Christina mentioned and I love it. The descriptions are so detailed and whatever I look up, the essence is right on about the symptom. Here's a link: Bach Flower Remedies for Animals I've also ordered essences from Jackson and have been pleased. I've used...

I love your response...allow for the fullest development of the remedy's energy. Thank you @GinnyW !

Wow...thanks everyone for the continued conversation and information about this. I do understand how it all works...bummed that if I want to continue fun activities at training centers that require the rabies vaccine Charlie will have to get another one next year. I waited as long as I could to...

Quick update -- Charlie began his Intro to Scent Work class this past week. He loved it, no surprise! Rabies vaccine given two days before class. Had to have it in order to participate. I waited until he was worm-free and his BEAM was good across the board before taking him in for the vaccine...

Hey Jody -- thanks for asking about this! I never tried it. It takes me forever to look at symptoms, especially when there's a lot. I talked with Dr. Jeff about it and suggested looking at the remedies that complement nux vomica which I have been using with him. Ferrum isn't on that list. I'll...

I was looking at cough, motion aggravates for Charlie because this has become a more prominent symptom. One remedy is in bold, ferrum metallicum. My interest was peaked even though I had just started re-looking at his symptoms and this was the first one I looked at. Checked this remedy out in...

IMO, there's rarely a definitive yes/no answer to your questions. It just depends on so many things. Supplements MAY help the body 'get right' and/or 'prevent further damage'. It's imperative though that you look at the BIG picture. What else is going on for the animal? In some cases, it MIGHT...

Hello again @EdwinA -- I can tell you what I think I know. ;-D I think supplements can be suppressive. IMO, that's the seemingly positive response we might see when using them. @Dr. Christina often suggests stopping supplements for a few days to see what shows up in terms of symptoms. It's...

@LilF & @Dr. Jeff -- I ordered Safe-Guard De-Wormer for Dogs from Chewy to try with Charlie. No Rx needed and the same active ingredients from what I could find. Both made by Merck. This may help you if you decide to do the de-worming. Kristen

@EdwinA -- Wow! I wrote that reply to @Dr. Christina on December 2 of last year and I finally re-dosed Charlie on December 28. That was a few days after my 15-minute call with @Dr. Jeff. I stayed with 200c at Dr. Jeff's recommendation although I think I understand why he said to use 6c 10/dose...

I am also grateful for this thread and the added info from @Dr. Sara. Kendi has her first appointment with a conventional vet next week since I adopted her that is. She was listed as spayed but she is not. She's 11 years old. Thanks again! Kristen

Thanks @Dr. Jeff -- Charlie's BEAM might have dropped a little but it's back now with no more episodes that I've heard or seen. He varies where he rests now, sometimes with me, sometimes in a different room, sometimes on furniture, or sometimes in Kendi's crate or his x-pen. I think this is a...

@Dr. Jeff -- Charlie had his vet appointment yesterday and we're now waiting for all of his routine lab results to come in. His vet uses Antech so there was some pushback on getting the dysbiosis index. She said that Antech does a fecal culture that looks for 9 or 10 different bacteria but I...

@Dr. Jeff and everyone else -- I'm in the process of re-repertorizing Charlie's symptoms and not sure how to search for a few. Charlie has off and on made a hacking sound which I called a cough. He has other coughs too that come and go. I've noticed that more recently that this hacking sound...

Hi Betty -- I use Maria Stoner. Her website is mariastoner.com -- I know her personally as we both live in Pennsylvania. I met her before she started this work. I've always been happy with her and I believe she's somewhat of a medical intuitive when it comes to animals. You can also search on...

Well @Dr. Christina ...I didn't re-dose him. I've been thinking about this though. Is there ever any harm in re-dosing even if not recommended by the HA! vets? Also, since his last potency of nux was 200c, is that what I would re-dose him with? Are we supposed to stay with higher potencies...

Hi everyone -- introducing my newly adopted dog Kendi, an 11-year-old Lab/Husky mix. She made her way to PA from NC. She was heart worm positive and finished treatment for that on October 20. She also had steroids. Kendi is a sassy girl. She's on a fresh food now, varied diet, mostly raw. That...

Hmmm...

Thanks @Dr. Jeff and no worries about time taken to reply. This is not new for Charlie. I first documented it on 3/15/2020 and it was considered when I did his repertorization. He's improving in most all areas. His digestive system remains inconsistent -- occasional diarrhea, burping, stools...
