Thank you, I will try the Berberis. I had to replace an entire wall in my old house (eaten by carpenter ants over the years), hence my antsiness.

Hi everyone, this is not really about parasites but about carpenter ants in my kitchen/house (I suspect coming from outside but traveling in from behind the wall in kitchen cabinet). I have sprayed with Wondercide and put down diatomaceous earth but have been advised to either get exterminator...

Wonderful. PS: Turns out this dog does have an ear infection (yeast); chicken or egg--could the white cell be low because of the ear infection or vice versa? Many dogs in the DC area are suffering this this year because of the extreme humidity

I actually take a formula with ginseng for blood deficiency myself

Dr Jeff, would I be able to order the Penta Genesis from you? It looks like you need to get it from a veterinarian.

Thank you; would be grateful if you could ask about it Monday; I am in Portuguese classes most Mondays at eight so probably won't be able to be there live :( This is her "normal", she was similarly low last year. She should come into heat November so will retest. She does get raw eggs a few...

I cannot get it to save on my computer so will try later, but what vet said is she has seen this in normal dogs and that she would not be worried about it. Will try to send the results. Thank you!

Hi, I just had a blood panel done for my five year old Saluki and the white blood cell count was a bit low (3.9). The vet said that she has seen low white count in healthy dogs but I wanted another opinion and any suggestions on supplements to build healthy blood. I plan to breed her later in...

Thank you all. I had Samarah's tooth evaluated and she is scheduled for a dental to have the tooth removed...provided her echo shows she is okay for the anesthesia (she has a grade 2/3 murmur). Her blood work also revealed Lymes disease infection (not just exposure) so she will be on doxycycline...

Hi, I have a 12 year old Salukis who C6 antibody test for Lymes was at 56 and apparently anything over 30 means there is infection, not just exposure. Vet is recommending 30 days of Doxycycline. Same dog is scheduled for a sedated dental procedure (extraction) in about two weeks. Is it better to...

I have a twelve year old Saluki who does not eat much raw anymore (she does better on/prefers cooked), so her teeth are not white like her comrades'. I give her occasional bones to clean her teeth on and she slab fractured a molar. I have had this happen with the Salukis before and have been...

HI, I just had a routine wellness/bloodwork one for a 5.5 year old Saluki and it came out high on the RBC (9.5), Hematocrit (58.7), Reticulocytes (145) and Hemoglobin (21.4). Dog had two marrow bones the night before the bloodwork (about twelve hours before. Vet said this is normal and of no...

Thank you Dr Jeff. Splenic nodules can be regenerative? That is hopeful news. I know liver ones can, but didn't know about splenic ones. Yes, we are going on symptoms (of which he has not many), and I do ultra hydration, exercise (male intact dog needs exercise/walks to inspire complete emptying...

I have a dog who has both cystinuria and, according to ultrasound done in June, a small mass on the spleen. He has been treated by a holistic vet and also now a homeopathic vet. Homeopathic vet has taken him off of most of his supplements (mushrooms, biosuperfood (blue green algae/spirulina) and...

Thank you. It is Samarah (you may remember her..."Pulsatilla Queen"...used to gather eleven stuffed animals as her babies with false pregnanices and I eventually spayed because it was emotionally very hard on her). I am assuming spaying was suppressive in and of itself.). The most emotionally...

One of my dogs has what the vets think is a sebaceous cyst on her skin. I had it looked at to make sure it was not mast cell, etc. It appeared a few moths ago. She does aggravate it so it will bleed a little--not a flow of blood, but just very red. I learned the hard way not to touch it (it...

Thank you both. It turned up after a several other symptoms when my body kind of freaked out. Looking at myself as a pet, compared to five days of rapid heartbeat, the skin thing is a cakewalk...and I did think of Dr Chambreau telling me long ago how vets love skin stuff as opposed to the...

Thank you. I am the animal...I caught something from a pet I was grooming for the first time in over thirty years of grooming, so obviously my immune system is low. I avoided the anti and it is finally subsiding with homeopathy and chinese herbs.

Is anti-fungal ointment (for skin yeast fungal patches) suppressive and therefore not recommended? I saw in another thread that it was optional. Thank you!

My dog initially took it last summer for droplets of blood coming from manly bits when stressed out over a girl in season. This was a 30c and “accidentally” addressed the thunder/fireworks situation and stopped the blood droplets but didn’t address the actual underlying cause that I was unaware...
