Each dog is very unique and Dee Dee certainly has her share of health issues like Lady. What works for Lady might not be appropriate for Dee Dee. I am fortunate to have "Team Lady", our vets and specialists who share information and are also open to holistic treatments in combination with traditional medicine.
I hope you and "Team Dee Dee" can come up with a course of treatment. I know how upsetting chronic staph infections can be. |
thanks so much yeah it is real frustrating
i have that book and not all the way through it may have to dive in further as it is real good. Jami emailed me today and she recommended the colostrum as well so i am going to have to give that one a shot but want to start the coconut oil first as like to do one thing at a time and take notes - are you using coconut oil? I started pilling her with cod to get some omega 3 in her as well but have not really noticed much of a difference after about a week and a half no decrease in itching ;(
so sad i know she was inbred as vet saw it on her papers - got her from backyard breeder - just makes me mad as i try so hard and no real cure for this allergy stuff just a constant balancing act
here is a pic of her hair on coconut oil on left and on right is when the nightmare began at 6 mos
she was such an adorable puppy but come 6 mos all heck broke loose
