  Re: Lymphoma Remedies Needed for Dog

Rebecca, poke root has been known to be curative for lymphoma. I am not familiar with its veterinary uses, but... if I were in your shoes, I would look into it. In humans, fresh root harvested in the fall is chewed up spitting out the pulp, or juiced (I did a 1/2 inch piece). It is quite purgative and emetic, that passes in a couple of hours, and it cleans out the lymph nodes like nothing else I know.

Dogs may react differently than humans. Maybe you can find a herbalist vet to advise you.

I see there was no responses to you or Wattsy. I hope your dog is OK. My lab mix was just diagnosed with lymphoma and only got an appetite after giving her prednisone. But it is not a long term solution.

Did your dog's chipped tooth rebuild completely with the application of the black walnut, horsetail & clay mixture? If so, how long did it take?

Vitamin C, Turmeric, Manuka Honey for Pyometra

Vitamin C, Turmeric, Manuka Honey

This is the second time I had to use this home remedy to help my dog suffering from what we think is Pyometra. In March 2024 she go really sick and the vet wanted 1400 for iv monitor over night. This wasn't the treatment it was just to monitor overnight and they said in the next day they would run labs if she wasn't getting better. Additional charges the next day for labs and treatment. I live in a Disability Fixed Income and couldn't afford any of that. He eluded to her having an infection in her uterus from not being fixed. We purchased pain meds and took her home.

Researched dogs and infections from not being spayed and turning senior. Found an article and started the remedy that night. The next day she had a bad mucus diarrhea and then started showing immediate signs of feeling better as she started to drink water on day 2.5 then started wanting nibbles of food.

We followed the protocol for a under 20 lb dog if giving 3/4 tsp Manuka Honey, 1000 mg vitamin C, and 1/8 tsp of turmeric at 5 doses in 24 hrs and then 3 doses for a week. She survived her ordeal. Fast forward to September 2024 and she got her heat cycle, a week into it no signs of discharge. But I should have read up on behavioral changes cuz now I noticed there was needy behavior, wanting to walk alot and explore, and drinking a lot of water. The day it happened was normal, a 1 hr long walk, active as ever. Got home didn't want supper, let her be thinking cuz sometimes during her hest cycle she doesn't eat as much. But a couple hrs later she was lethargic and wanted to go out. I walked her to the door slowly and she collapsed as we got outside and started convulsing on the ground like puke was blocking her airway. A terrifying moment and I was able to pat her back enough and shake her a bit til it finally came out of her mouth. Lots of green mucus and hairball. Then she stood there a bit catching her air then let out a big diarrhea poop filled with mucus then a vaginal discharge that was putrid smelling. Put her back in bed and started the home remedy treatment at same dose and it's almost 24 hrs, she is now asking to go out and pee, walked for about 5 mins and pooed today and drank water twice today. I believe it is working once again. I won't ever forget this remedy and will be using it every head cycle now near the start of it. It works, try it, you have nothing to lose. I almost lost my dog cuz I can't afford vet care, but home remedies saved my dog ❤️

Hi Pam,

That post was from three years ago, so in case you don't get the answer you seek, I remember when I was a little boy, my mom used to break open a raw egg on top of our dog's dry kibble and their fur coats were always very lustrous and soft.

WRONG!! Garlic contains little thiosulphate in comparison to onions! A dog would have to ingest ALOT of garlic to incur any negative effects. As a veterinary student, your posting is disappointing.

There are natural remedies that work fine.... This cat's problem right now is more the fear from the painful use of vinegar, than the mites! Using a chemical treatment would only add insult to injury. Please do *NOT* encourage the use of pharmaceuticals on EQ ... Do you have any idea what these chemicals are doing to a great many of our pets ...?!?

"Even veterinarians routinely prescribe these based on an animal's history. But that could be a tragic mistake with this dangerous chemical. Seizures, tremors, lack of muscle control or death could occur, even if your pet has never had an adverse reaction in the past...."

To anyone who sees this post; mixing peroxide and vinegar creates peracetic acid, which, after intital mixing, will create a gas that if breathed is not safe. However, this same compound is used as a safe no rinse application for food industry sanittation. Just dont apply the mix right away. Let it react first.

I would try 1Tsp (or 1Tbsp if large dog), 2x/day of Virgin Coconut Oil. Read a study where the authors found the C.O. was actually closing the small holes present in the beginning stages. C.O. mitigated the symptoms! Very exciting. I was at the ready to use this on my own dad but the spry Ole fella was lucid till the end!

Did you all know that a tiny 3lb chihuahua is given the same dose of a rabies shot as a 50lb dog? And if the vet lowers the dosage they can get their accreditation revoked? Its ridiculous! The big pharma companies would still get paid the same (per dose), BUT they want some dogs to die. They feed off the sorrow and sadness like in that movie 'monsters inc'. Think about why, WHY can't a smart veterinarian tone-down the dose for a 3lb dog vs a 50lb one? The "intent" certainly is nefarious.

 Cat Vomits Too Much - Please Help!

Posted by Lynn (Maryland) on 09/02/2024

My cat did the same thing. I tried alot of things but what works now for me is :

1. Feeding her some wet food with a bit of cat vitamin gel and a few hills science nuggets. I push the nuggets deep under a bit of wet food. If I fill her little bowl too hi she vomits. I fill this a third of that little bowl. That means feeding her 3x/day.

2. I also have started brushing her to get excess hair off when she does sit on my lap which is not alot.

So far so good.

Hello, my dog has the same issue. Can you please write some feedback?

In previous reviews I can see that some growths have shrunk, and others have opened. I am afraid if it opens, my vet said if it starts bleeding the dog will need a surgery. Thank you.
