I take Peanut butter (NO xylitol) And cover the peanut butter all over the fish oil Tablet, (we use small liquid pills) as long as you have enough peanut butter around the pill your dog should eat it.

Hi Elaine, I was reading your post about flax seed with your dogs food, and I was wondering if you had any feedback for us? I am looking after 7 dogs, two of them belong to other members of the family, and the other 5 are mine. They are all rescue dogs. I'm deeply interested in how they respond to naturaly remedies, so would like to share with you what I've done over the years and the results, I am sure we can help each other?
The worst health dog I have is a corgi cross something. I got her at 3 years old, and she has the coloring of a rough collie and the size of a corgie along with the bandy legs. I spent R3000 on her, which was about USD$300 at the time, and found out from the vet that she had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis along with an auto immune difficiency disease that attacks her own body. She is also allergic to all synthetic foods, which includes kibbles and canned dog foods. He wanted to put her on rimadyl and cortisols for life.
Well I did my research and discovered she could probably die of organ failure due to the cortisols, so I started researching natural stuff for her. To cut a long story short, she is 100% ok. I feed her on raw meaty diet, and I include 1.2 tsp turmeric, 1 caps salmon oil, 1 vit b complex, 1 cal-mag, digestive enzymes, black leaf walnut extract. All of these have a purpose for this little doggie.
When she gets sever arthritis in winter, I add potassium or vitamin K tabs once a week, and use T Touch massaging to calm her down. I also make my own dog dip and anti flea and tic solutions.
I wish you could see the pictures of before and after I made. You won't believe its the same dog. She has glossy hair, the lumps from the yeast candida in her blood are gone, her sores are gone, she doesn't limp and her hair is so lovely and soft.
She also gets traumeel homeopathic tablets as an anti-inflammatory.
The other dogs are all healthy, so they get normal kibbles with some bone meal gravy and left overs with some raw meaty bones about once a week. I can't afford to put them all on that diet, I wish I could. In their food they get salmon oil capsules, turmeric, and extra supplements depending on the problem.
I've only just started the turmeric, because I read about how it helps regulate liver function and helps skinny dogs put on weight and vice versa. I have to say that my very fat dog who hardly eats anything seems to be losing weight suddenly, we've only been it a week so I'll let you know the results in a month or so.
I'd love to hear back from you and anyone else with doggies on natural stuff.
