One of my favorite examples of mixing homeopathic with traditional medicine is one of my former pups who has since left me due to renal failure. He came to me at the age of 8 with horrible skin issues. For those who have seen these photos before, I apologize; but I think he is such an excellent example ...
Index of /cody (the first two links are his before and after)
Cody had bacterial and fungal infections. My vet prescribed an antibiotic for the bacterial infection but not an anti fungal. She told me to bathe him 3 times/week and then rinse him in 50/50 warm vinegar and water. I remember questioning her because I felt he should have an anti fungal, but she insisted it would work and felt it was better than to use the medication. It was amazing! He started to respond after the first week...and I so remember when he started growing hair on his little bare chest. I remember telling him that he was going through puberty. LOL
Since that day/experience I have had many pups with allergy issues who have had fungal infections and to this day I have never given an anti fungal. I had a member here who once told me that tea bags cure staph infections ... to me that is way off the beaten path. We know for a fact that antibiotics cure bacterial infections. Maybe if you get to something early, you can get away with homeopathic but certainly not once an infection has set in/taken hold.
Just one example...but I think it is a good one especially since the photos are really a great overall picture of it.
