Integrative Vet, Karen Becker recommends from 1/4 to 1/2 tsp daily for cats, & mine LOVE it, so I give it to them every day! It's a wonderful preventive for hairballs, & constipation too! But as the article above points out, those are only a few of its benefits! (:

Beef Allergy in Dogs

Most dogs that have been on kibble most of their lives develop a beef or chicken allergy. Usually beef. It's the high calcium content and low Omega 3 of beef and chicken that causes the yeast infection. I had my dog on duck most of his life and changed his food to freeze dried because he had some teeth removed in his old age and I switched him to beef and could not figure out why his skin was turning white and thick and scaley, tried expensive medicated shampoos because thought maybe it was mange because he had been around so many other dogs recently. Was talking to a pet food employee and she said most dogs that have been on kibble most of their lives can't switch to beef or chicken and have an allergic reaction almost immediately when they do and that it's quite common to turn into a yeast infection, primarily with beef but often with chicken too. I switched him back to duck and have been feeding him yogurt with acidophilus mixed in it and washing him with a generic dandruff shampoo and he's finally getting better, thank you God! I also started giving him a squirt of Omega 3 fish oil in his food for his skin.

DE worked wonders on my cat's penny sized open wound. First I packed DE into the wound, but it fell right back off. So I tried mixing it into a paste with honey and a bit of cayenne and that made it stay. That hardened right up until the next day. It must've lasted as its own type of bandage for a day and a half, and when it came off, the wound was less than half it's original size. So I packed some more and honey into it the following evening and today you can't see a wound at all. Only the fur covering it over. I'm grateful for this very helpful and timely remedy.

Allergy Medicine Helps Dog With Pyoderma

Pyoderma cure for suffering dogs

My dog had pyoderma, and when I took her to the vet, I was told to bring her in once a month for an allergy shot. Since I am not fond of shots for myself or my dog I decided to look on amazon for allergy medicine and read all the ingredient lists. I found one I thought would help and purchased it. Her sores cleared up in about a month and never came back. Recently I decided to try a different brand that had more ingredients, and they came back almost immediately. The brand is Finn allergy and itch. I know I am not supposed to say brand but this is so hard to clear up to help other poor dogs. Finn has the exact right ingredients. It worked like a miiracle for my dog. I give it to her daily. I love this site, and visit almost every day.

Hi, thanks so much for your review. If possible, how much exactly did u use? Did u put your pup in the bath or sponge bathe? Sorry, I'm asking so many questions. I'm just at wits and basically he has really bad allergies and I've taken him to a dermatologist and paid $2000 so this is like the last thing we're gonna try and then if this doesn't work, we're gonna look for something else I appreciate your time and thank you for the wonderful review you left. It gives me hope.

I forgot to give the dosage I used: 10% DMSO/90% Distilled water. Many reviews are positive at 40% DMSO solution eyedrops, even 20% DMSO gets great reviews, but rescue #4 is very small so I felt more comfortable with a 10% solution.

I know this post is really old, but I had to jump in when I saw that your dog had a blue-misty eye; mine did too. This was the day after we started beating an inner ear infection back (using dmso, but that saga will be in another post). It was only in his right eye and appeared overnight.

Mildly alarmed at seeing his big brown eye turn misty-blue so quickly, I made a dmso/distilled water solution immediately and applied it 2x/day with an eye dropper. Even with him closing his eyes when the dropper is near, the space between the lids is enough. Within 2 days his eye is its beautiful original brown again! I will continue to treat him for another few days though. Another miracle by my trusty DMSO.

Fasting, Lemon Balm Tincture for Cat With Distemper

Cat distemper treatment

I cured my kitten during a serious bout with distemper by fasting her and giving her drops of lemon balm tincture every couple of hours. I also got three bags of saline from the vet to avoid dehydration.

Juliette de Bairacli Levy recommends fasting for distemper in both puppies and kittens. The vet talked me into forcing her to take some vitamin paste, and she got much worse. Then I fasted her with the herbal drops and she was mostly recovered in a couple of days.

You really need to do your homework on Ivermectin. You are completely mistaken about it efficacy to treat Covid and a multitude of Cancers. The Covid vaccination has proved to be deadly and the side effects horrendous. My brother was completely cured of Bladder Cancer from the use of Ivermectin. He struggled for 5 years with Cancer. In 6 weeks of taking Ivermectin he was cancer free and remains cancer by taking Ivermectin. PS my Brother is a Medical Doctor.

Colloidal Silver for Cat Distemper

We have been using 100 ppm colloidal copper to take out distemper for our cats. For teen-ager cats 3 drops twice daily for a couple months got rid of it. They have grown up and had another generation of kittens. (We found that if given to a very young kitten it did not help; their body didn't seem to be able to handle the copper.) This time, a kitten is not getting rid of the mucus. He has good appetite but is limited in activity by the poor breathing. We have tried drops of people over-the-counter liquids for mucus but the taste makes it impossible to give. Any ideas on mucus busting for a cat?

I should clarify: the piece I have taken was about 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch. I chewed it up, swallowed the juice, and spat out the pulp. The purgation came in about 2 hours and lasted 2 hours. Felt great in the morning. :-)

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.

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.
