Dear Joan, Symptomatic homeopathic treatment may also be helpful for Rocco. Symptomatic homeopathy is appropriate for acute cases. Most of the kennel cough cases that I have treated respond nicely to either homeopathic Spongia or Rumex. Occasionally I have used the kennel cough nosode. The...

Dear Laura, Your decision regarding the tumour depends on your boy's overall condition, BEAM, and the tumour state. Perianal adenomas are not cancerous, though there are other perianal tumors that may be. That sounds like a large tumor, though if your dog is massive, perhaps it is not...

Well managed, Dana! I'm sorry that I didn't see this thread sooner, though you, Dr. Jeff, and Dr. Wolff have managed Murph's problem quite well. These big baby Berners (well, Murphy isn't so much of a baby any more) can definitely injure themselves more easily than small dogs. Their sheer size...

Ulcerated tumors and non-healing wounds Tumors with an ulcerated surface and non-healing wounds are unpleasant, though often they are not uncomfortable to the patient. Such tumors can occur when: 1 - The tumor has outgrown its blood supply and ruptured 2 - The tumor type has a surface that...

I hear your grief, anger, and frustration and I sympathise with you, Lil. Remember, your emotions affect your family as well. Please focus on what you can do to help your pups. Dr. Marty does not always have success with paralyzed patients. No vet, however excellent, always has excellent...

Dear Lil, We simply can't know how JJ or Gabby will respond to another acupuncture treatment. Living beings are dynamic, and it is possible that their symptoms are unrelated to the acupuncture. I agree, it seems likely that the acupuncture was an excessive stimulus for JJ and Gabby in this...

There is a substantive difference between consuming significant quantities of a nutrient in a purified form (like PQQ) and eating foods containing that substance (kiwi, green tea, natto, spinach, etc). The study you list merely indicates that PQQ is naturally present in the diet of all animals...

PQQ might help dogs, it might not. It might have adverse effects, it might not. PQQ research has not advanced to the point where it has been studied in dogs; it is still in the rat / mouse research stages. Part of our veterinary oath is "First, do no harm". I would not give something to my...

Dear Lil, I understand how upsetting this is to see. Please realise that ANY treatment can have unintended adverse effects. They are uncommon with acupuncture, though they do occur. No vet can guarantee that a treatment will consistently help an individual patient, because each patient has...

Dear Betty, As Dr. Chambreau recommended, Arnica is an excellent choice if trauma is suspected. If Frankie still seems stiff and sore, I would consider Rhus tox (if he seems to improve after moving around a bit) or Ruta grav (if he does not limber up after moving around). Please address the...

Dear Maria, Dr. Chambreau has given you some excellent advice, particularly regarding feeding minimally processed (fresh and frozen) food as much as possible, and observing how the food affects your individual pup's BEAM. There are several trustworthy on-line resources to compare pet foods...

Dear Jamie, I doubt that these elevations in RBC number / hematocrit / hemoglobin are significant. These are mild elevations, most likely representing relative polycythemia, or increased red blood cells in relation to the total fluid volume of the body. It is not due to over production of red...

Dear Holistic Action Members, In two minutes - less than the time it will take me to send this to all of you - I clicked on the link below to send a letter to all of my Congressional representatives supporting homeopathy. Don’t wait until later, do it now, as responses must be received by 9...

I agree, Dr. Jeff. Antidoting is most accurately applied to some treatment or medicine that is given close in time to a homeopathic medicine, and nullifies that effect of that homeopathic medicine. I also agree that antidoting does not occur that often in animals, though it would be more likely...

Dear Holistic Action Clients, I have been ordering Verm-X for the past 20 years to support gastrointestinal health and prevent intestinal parasites. It has been highly effective, including the prevention of transmission of internal parasites from mothers to their pups. After many years of...

Remember Lil, these cognitive changes are gradual. All animals don't get all of the changes, and they slowly worsen over time. Supporting brain function early slows down disease progression. There are good dietary supplements shown to support brain function in animals. I would not use...

Dear Lil, Night time restlessness, behavioural changes, house training problems, and aimless vocalization are commonly seen as aspects of cognitive dysfunction of seniors. We should ensure that senior blood work is normal, ruling out any problem with the internal organs causing these signs...

Judy, here is a discussion of how to test for conscious proprioception: Many elderly animals will have deficits in conscious proprioception due to aging. Other problems can cause this as well, but this is one of the most common.
