    Canine waking us in the wee hours

    Thank you @Dr. Jean Hofve ! I purchased it. How long will it take to see Fibi sleeping through the night? This would be such a relief.

    Canine waking us in the wee hours

    Thank you all for your insights. I'm sorry I did not respond sooner. I'm used to the messages coming into my inbox. @Dr. Jean Hofve, is the flower remedy Quiet Night something I should just use or should I have an appt with a certified flower remedy practitioner? She's a tough one at night...

    Canine waking us in the wee hours

    Thank you for all of these wonderful suggestions Dr. Christina. We will be in touch with Judy Herman when she's back in the office tomorrow. I think though that we're past using flower remedies and waiting several weeks for anything to potentially kick in. That is the only reason we turned to...

    Canine waking us in the wee hours

    Update- Fibi had what seemed like a reaction to Gabapentin we gave her for the first time in a while and Anypril. It looked like a vestibular episode but lasted all night long. We gave her a homeopathic remedy prescribed by Judith Herman but she did not respond. Eventually, we gave her Cerenia...

    Canine waking us in the wee hours

    Hi all, We are running out of things to try to get our almost 16 yr old female Havanese to sleep through the night. She's approx 9 lbs. Beam- Obsessed with food (it's pretty much all she thinks about). Pretty low energy except for meal and snack times. Mood (again) is always ready to eat her...

    Lick mats

    This makes perfect sense. I hope Carol will know how much I appreciate this. Last thing I'd want is for Fibi to be frustrated. Thank you Dr. Jeff!

    Lick mats

    Great! The Mine Platter is made from cellulose apparently. Thanks so much!

    Lick mats

    I meant safe for Fibi. Do you feel silicone is safe? Why the Mine platter as apposed to the licking mat? We want to keep her stimulated throughout the day as much as possible. I see why the Mine platter is great too!

    DHEA for incontinence

    Thank you @GinnyW! I thought giving her a little more DHEA could stop the incontinence considering it's already helped so much as far as we can see.

    DHEA for incontinence

    Thanks so much Dr. Jeff! Fibi's BEAM is pretty good currently. No new symptoms either. Her urinalysis prior to the abax was cloudy, had a little blood and puss. Since the abax it's all clear. We cut the abax shorter than the vet prescribed. What I don't quite understand is that we had not...

    DHEA for incontinence

    We have noticed a reduction of incontinence since giving Fibi DHEA at 10 mg's per day. Thank you very much for this tip Dr. Jeff! Can we go up on the dosage? If so, how much more and is it better to give two doses a day? Thank you for any insights on this!

    Probiotics

    Dr. Jeff (you) had suggested in our 15 min talk that we rotate a couple of different probiotics based on Fibi's recent UTI and also the fact that she was on abax for 10 days. I did not hear them correctly and can not look them up now. Can you mention them here please? We have been giving her The...

    Vestibular episodes

    Great answers Dr. Jeff! We spoke with Dr. Herman and got a remedy to use if another episode should arise. We also got a script for Meclizine to have only if absolutely necessary. I love that Archie is deciding if there are further teachings...so touching:pup:

    Vestibular episodes

    Thanks for your reply Dr. Jeff. I did not refresh my browser and so did not see that you left responses. a few follow up questions and I have an appt w/ Dr. Herman today--- Can the Meclizine be used within the same 24 hrs that the Cerenia is given? Are bananas discouraged in a (potential) kidney...

    Vestibular episodes

    Update: Fibi has not had another episode since we gave her the Gelsemium. Not sure if the remedy is helping or what is happening in her body or when she'll have another episode. B- she's about the same. Food obsessed and more clingy E- Not a lot except when there's food involved or snuffle mats...

    Vestibular episodes

    Update: We gave Fibi another dose of Cerenia (30 mg) after almost 24 hrs since the last dose. We're not sure if this or the Gelsemium helped or what. Would you be able to recommend Cerenia a little more frequently if needed? The script is written for once every 24 yrs. Also, is Gelsemium a good...

    Vestibular episodes

    Hi all, Fibi was doing great with no episodes since beginning of December. She's now have Three in the past 22 hrs. We gave her Cerenia after the first episode at 12:45 am Sat morning. She seemed better a while after, simply falling asleep after some time. But at 4:50am there was another that...
