Re: Borax for Pets and Easier Oral Dosing for People?

I think that's way too much to give a human key alone a pet. Just a pinch in afew ounces of water is enough for human.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Skin Issues on Rescue Dog

Vic (South Whitley) on 08/24/2025
5 out of 5 stars

Some years ago I rescued a Dachshund from a kill shelter. He had been passed on from shelter to shelter without being adopted. He had black, hairless skin and a very unhealthy, sad countenance. No one would adopt him.

I got him a half hour before he was scheduled to be euthanized.

I brought him home and began feeding him a healthy diet and loving care. But the main thing I did for his skin was to mix 1/3 Organic ACV with 2/3 water and spritzed this mixture on his skin 3-4 times a day.

Within a week his skin was beginning to heal and he wasn't itchy anymore. Within a fairly short amount of time ALL his hair grew back on his legs, where there was no hair when I got him.

He became the happiest, funniest, most loving boy any dog owner could wish for! The Organic ACV was the only treatment I used for his skin, as I don't like to put any chemical based treatments on or inside my dogs.

Berberine for cat with worms

Berberine for cat with worms

Our cat had drunk from a bird bath and got sick. Vomiting and smelly poops. The toxic 'back of the neck' spot on treatments are really poision (check the ingredients). So we tried pumpkin seed, silver vine and diatomaceous earth. Nothing helped. So we turned to fenbendezole but it only helped partly. We were recommended to use berberine by a holistic practitioner. He had a tiny sprinkle (just a dusting really) mixed in a paste treat to make sure he had no issues with it. (We also checked before giving it to him with muscle-testing and he tested 'yes'.) Berberine is amazing! He is better now. He needed at least 3 doses. You could muscle test to check this for your cat. Hope this helps someone.

Re: Turmeric and Burdock Root for Mystery Lump on Dog's Neck

Onlytruthintheworldkjv (Sonomacounty) on 08/20/2025

Thanks for the advice. Have been applying castor oil since it first happened 12 days ago (I believe after she tugged too hard on her collar when tied up). Also olive oil & tea tree & arnica. I will now add a pinch of baking soda to see if that helps tenderize the squishy meatball hanging off her neck ðŸ˜€ðŸ˜¬...

Hoping it will dissipate asap as I can't keep driving her to the emergency clinic to have them sedate her & drain it @ $500 a pop. If it gets too big I'll just give her a double dose of cbd and drain it myself with a needle from tractor supply. Kind regards.

If it were my dog, I would be applying castor oil to the lump daily. I've also read some people mix in a little baking soda.

Re: Turmeric and Burdock Root for Mystery Lump on Dog's Neck

Onlytruthintheworldkjv (Sonomacounty) on 08/19/2025

Peace and Greetings, ma'am.

Thank you for sharing. I am currently going through the exact same thing. Tennis ball size lump on my pup's right side of throat. Was concerned it was blocked salivary gland or worse lymphoma. Took her to emergency clinic they drained it said it's hematoma and now it's back 2 days later. They gave me amoxicillin and doggy ibuprofen which I'm hesitant to give her as I only believe in natural remedies.

Can you please share the dose amount of turmeric and burdock you gave your baby? And for how long until it dissipated back to normal?

I've been giving calendula & rosemary to stimulate blood circulation, and it doesn't seem to bother her eating drinking sleeping or desire to romp about, but it is unsightly.

Thanks again & kind regards.

Re: Hyperthyroid in Cats

Steph (KS) on 08/16/2025

Anyone else who comes here looking for more information on treating cats with HyperT, I recommend you read the page on HyperT in humans. There are cat stories there. After reading it I ordered NHV Resthyro. I ordered it from the company itself because they seem to provide great customer support and sometimes supplements sold on Amazon are counterfeit and my cat's health is too important to me to take a chance on that. I've already started my cat on the med from the vet, but I plan to discuss it with the vet and have him checked regularly for a while to see if he can be weaned off the med or taken to an even lower dose.

Re: Help for Hyperthyroid in Cats

Steph (Kansas) on 08/16/2025

Same here, Nadirah. I'm cutting all fish from my cat's diet. I found some black mold near one if his sleeping places. That's all I can think of. I did see somewhere recommendation to give the pet ACV, so I am putting a small amount in his drinking water. I would love to hear from anyone else who has any ideas.

Re: Castor Oil for Canine Cataracts

Vera (Colorado) on 08/14/2025

Harlan, what exactly did you do, how often, for how long?

Was there anything else you did besides castor oil?

Do you know for sure he could see rather than going by smell and familiarity?

Re: Congestive Heart Failure in Dog

Dr. John Robyn Gamble (TX) on 08/14/2025

Theresa,

Your information is not quite true, as you can go online to the Standard Process website and they will show you there, the practitioners that sell their products. Then contact whichever one you want, and place your order directly with them. OR, you can also order Standard Process directly from Amazon although they may not have every one of their products listed, but most of them are there. That’s where I have purchased most of mine: Amazon.

Castor Oil for Canine Cataracts

I cured my dog of cataract blindness twice using 100% pharmaceutical grade castor oil … not the kind you get at Walmart for your stomach … I still have the bottle I used my dog died in 2014 at 13. However he was able to see when he died.

Feeding Before Bed for Vomiting Issues in Dogs

Josey (Las Vegas) on 08/12/2025
5 out of 5 stars

Feeding before bed is a game changer for my Lhapso/Bichon mix. She was throwing up just about every morning. Trips to the vet ended with a huge bill and a shrug from the vet. He had no answers. But just feeding her about 1/2 cup of food right before bed did the trick! Thank you to the original poster of this. Such a simple remedy to such a disruptive problem!! And my little dog especially thanks you. She went through such misery, but she’s back to her happy self now!

Re: Seeking Pyloric Stenosis Remedies for Dogs

Vera (Colorado) on 08/08/2025

Ragarding Hill's pet food: Many years ago, it was prescribed for our 16 year old incontinent kitty. It was expensive, looked awful, smelled awful, and she didn't like it. For the little while I made her eat it, it made no difference.

I wonder if vets get kickbacks from pushing this brand.

If I were to face that again, I would go with homemade.

Hi Kat,

My 15 y.o. chihuahua rescue that I've had for four years is struggling with this diagnosis. Veterinarians are recommending Hills diet GI biome food, which he has tried and did not like or respond to well. I am looking for a nutritionist. Did you have any luck finding a good dog nutritionist. I know this post is old but hoping to hear back

Thanks,

Keshia

Re: Tiger Balm for Flatulence

Fiona (Royal Oak Michigan) on 08/06/2025

I agree I just rubbed it my big dogs tummy he ate and it’s not sitting right with him, his tummy’s tight and he is just gassy, tiger ligament, it works for so many things, gassy tummy, headache sinus issue, congestion anxiety. I have so many bottles in my house, plus I’m a massage therapist so it’s great for muscle aches.

Flaxseed Reduced Cat's Hairballs and Improved Hair

Sandra (Poulsbo WA) on 08/03/2025

My 9 year old cat started throwing up fur every two to three days. I read your post about flax seed and decided to try it. I grind fresh flax seeds each day and started giving her 1/4 teaspoon in some food each day. It's been six days now since she last threw up. It also has helped her very dry stools. I'm a fan.

Hamster With Fur Loss

Madi (Tampa, FL) on 08/01/2025
1 out of 5 stars

I have a Syrian hamster who is losing a lot of fur on her legs and back. I thought it was fur loss from mites, so I treated her with Beaphar hamster ivermectin medicine, but she is still losing fur. I do not know if it is Cushing's disease or simply old age (I got her brand new from the pet store ten months ago, but I do not know how old she was when I got her). I cannot afford a vet visit. What can I do? I have tried coconut oil on the spots to no avail. Any help would be very appreciated.
