I want to advocate for retaining as many of Elliott's loose teeth as possible. He has several missing & loose incisors. The front teeth that he does have serve the important function of holding his tongue inside of his mouth. I want to see if I can do focused work on those teeth to help them...
It has been almost 10 complete months since I started working on healing my dog, Elliott's severe gum disease along with nearly every tooth in his mouth being so loose, that I did not dare to attempt to physically remove calculus. In the future I will describe in detail about what I did, the...
Hi Dr. Jeff & Dr.Christina, it was great to hear Dr. Nancy speak tonight. In case you are able to ask her my question about HA members being able to obtain Chinese herbs or consult, I wanted to clarify & enhance the question. In my case I would approach her with a TCM diagnosis in hand - the...
Thank you Drs. Jeff, Christina & Angie for these 2 amazing articles that spell out in a clear & easy understand manner what we need to pay attention to when purchasing CBD oil. I'm looking forward to learning how to safely incorporate CBD into my holistic medicine kit.
Thank you so much for these recommendations. I had a horrible incident in 2015, when I came home one evening to discover my border collie having seizures so violent she was almost levitating. The vet wasn't eager to open up his office, I was told to wait & watch. Nearly 4 hours later night I...
Are there any cases where homeopathy was successfully used for long-term management of brain seizures following strychnine poisoning, in lieu of oral phenobarbitol or valium?
Is it useful to give Aconite for a first time brain seizure event even when the cause/trigger is not known? If the...
I believe that things happen for a reason, the effort to get Elliott's cleaning & extractions done as planned, might be delayed for the 3rd time. The good news is that I would be choosing to cancel this week's appt in order to have more time to weigh the various general anesthesia &...
Thank you Dr. Jeff, I learn the most from these types of hands-on experiences. I would like to ask about the term in
homeopathy, Aggravation. The reason that I thought that I'd been hasty switching to Hypericum was that I'd only recently heard about
"aggravation" & I understood it to be a "it...
1. Thank you very much for confirming the use of Arnica & Hypericum flwg oral surgery procedures.
I actually successfully used the combo to treat physical trauma last week after a big stray dog, who
wasn't wearing a collar, sat across Elliott's shoulders, which caused the leash tied...
Thank you Dr. Jeff, I would hear through the years about the antibody/PCR tests sometimes giving inaccurate diagnosis & generating a lot of needless fear. My first experience with PCR/Snap tests was for Erlychiosis, very common in Mexico, particularly with stray dogs. Every dog that I rescued...
Are fecal samples the most accurate way to check for protozoas & giardia & is the term "amoeba" now discontinued to describe water borne intestinal parasites? I had adopted a dog who unbeknownst to me had protozoas & giardia, he actually became lame, it was very challenging to heal without easy...
Over the years, I hv heard many different vet opinions regarding the accuracy of fecal exams, that 1 single isolated fecal exam may show negative, however the dog does actually have worms. Picture this conversation taking place when you as the dog owner are happy & relieved that yeah!!! the...
Thank you Dr. Jeff. Would you & Dr. Christina please tell me if you recommend homeopathic remedies to be given post dental/anesth?
Do you have a favorite remedy to help de-tox the anesthesia? I was going to give/ask vet staff to give Arnica after Elliott wakes up, I'm pretty sure he'll also...
This ca se had a lot of similarities to my dog, Elliott's bi-weekly bile vomiting, accompanied by grass eating & overall periodic digestive issues, gurgling, gassiness. He was also taking probiotics & digestive enzymes & eating a home-prepared diet. He had been treated for a massive hookworm...
Hi Dr. Jeff, Thank you for affirming my decision making process & for letting me know that the dental article has been added to my research folder, I've only recently started looking into the HA resources, wasn't aware there was a way for me to add research items
to a folder. Are research...

Hi Dr. Jeff & Dr. Christina, I came across this article today about a study involving canine peridontitis & kidney disease, for me, it was perfect timing as I have been puzzling the cancelled dental cleaning &...
Dr. Jeff, these were fantastic articles, thank you for posting them. I want to see the actual photos of the teeth shown in the British dentistry article to get the full perspective of the damage described. In ref to Dr. Pitcairins' myrhh treatment, I avoided using myrhh because the straight...
Thank you for the very informative answers, I will definitely by giving some of these suggestions a try. The first-hand product & practical treatment guidance is invaluable, for so many years I've had to make decisions relying on random reviews or word-of-mouth recommendations, which often...
My approx 9 yr old rescue dog, Elliott, is finally scheduled for what is likely the first teeth cleaning in his life, flwg a 1-1/2 yr delay to resolve an initially undetected hookworm infestation. He came to me with several missing teeth, 2 snapped off canines, gums that a vet described as...
