Thanks, this was helpful. He's doing a bit better, I'm improving his BEAM, and I just started him on some CBD treats. We're also going to go ahead and make an appointment with the holistic vet I mentioned. Thanks for the encouragement and insight.

Pumpkin Age: 16 Lhasa Apso/Maltese Neutered M Home cooked diet + kibble I've been trying over the past 5 months to get homeopathic care for my dog's chronic reverse sneezing and arthritis. He has been prescribed 4 remedies with no results. His arthritis over the past 2 weeks has gotten much...

Thanks for your post ?Hope Bella is well...

Update: Pumpkin's dental went well. They also removed a black mole on him, biopsied it, and it came back non-cancerous ? He took Arnica 1M in lieu of conventional pain medication. He has some arthritic symptoms that I want to tackle next. Limping, difficulty jumping, etc. I'm giving him...

Yes, I mentioned above that I'm already working with a homeopathic vet, Dr. Christine Barrett :)

I'm a bit confused by all the different energy medicine modalities. I already do acupressure, a little bit of Jin Shin Jyustu, flower essences, and crystal healing on him, and he's received Emotion Code before. I guess I'm wondering if I should learn Emotion/Body Code (because family members...

Thank you, Dr. Christina. I am working with Dr. Christine Barrett. We started a few weeks ago.. Pumpkin is a good dog, but to be honest, I get tired of him following me around so much! ☺I love him but I'm wondering if I'm more or a cat person! Maybe some of the velcro-ness is due to the...

His creatine was normal ? She didn't mention the USG, and a urine test was done. <Shakes head>

We're moving forward with the dental. His bloodwork was good enough that the vet felt comfortable. She did say he might have early-stage kidney disease, though ("might" because the sample was "potentially diluted", and he questions whether it's really the "high-meat diet" that may be causing...

I switched him to a home-cooked diet because I was worried about the possibility of salmonella and other diseases in an elderly dog. Do you think that was a good decision? I'm grateful not to have to handle raw meat all the time, that's for sure

Yeah, I remember him talking about it but I don't remember him expressing doubts :/ God Bless 'em all ?

Wait, when you say "good quality raw meats," are you talking about pasture-raised, organic, etc.? So mass-produced meat from Raley's probably isn't good enough, huh? She has a good point about our current food production system having a higher likelihood of bad bacteria than what was in the wild.

Thank you, Ginny. That was a great post. I don't have time to read all the resources, but I believe you. I'll continue with the raw/home-cooked diet. I especially liked your advice on not letting any one person change your mind all by themselves, on anything. Heh, words of wisdom.

My new vet is advising me to stop feeding raw as it could be the cause of the elevated liver enzymes. Here is her reason: "The raw diet could cause liver inflammation due to bacteria (E coli and Salmonella being the more common ones) - these can get into the bile ducts, which connect to the...

Update: We're gonna start working with a homeopathic vet soon. I'm also reintroducing raw/home-cooked to Pumpkin, but slowly, as diarrhea is ever present. But he enjoys it so much more, and he deserves it ?

Good answer, thanks. ??

Thank you so much. I sensed he was being melodramatic when he suggested that he might have a liver tumor, and therefore, would want to do an ultrasound and radiograph. And it would've been $700, too! I'm going to get a second opinion. ???

Watching the Homeopathy courses (great, by the way). Need clarification: 200c is more potent than 6c, right? Am I correct in saying that it's been diluted MORE than 6c? So, to put a pellet (let's say 200c) in a cup of water, and take only a sip.... would that sip be more potent than taking...
