Upon reading healing dogs with manuka honey for pyometra. The best medicinal honey money can buy is the green umf 28 from newzealandhoneyco (link) The cost is £300 but would cost 10x that if taken to a vet. Leave nothing to chance!

I have the exact same scenario as yours (type of dog, age, doctor solutions, costs - everything as the story you told). We watched the video and are trying the remedies suggested. She seems to be doing better than before. It's been 6 days since we've found out.
Because we had to wait for the remedies to be shipped from Amazon and or purchased from other stores, I tried the best available option I had. I used Emergen-C. I mixed it up and gave about 225 mg of the 1000 mg in a packet each day. I think she has done better with Vitamin C. The first day we took her to the vet her tongue was gray. The last few days her tongue has turned more pink.
Today is the first day she's tried the concoction mentioned on the posted video. She can barely stand on her own and can basically only pee (not poop yet) and lift her head up. She only eats boiled chicken and we've given her CORE water because it has electrolytes. I hope it works - God willing!
Echinacea and Goldenseal
Saw your comments. one capsule each of the Echinacea and Goldenseal root 225/225mg? My dog is about 20lbs.
Thanks

Dear Brett, I am sorry to hear about your dog. Have you tried giving turmeric/curcumin capsules in a "pill pocket"? I give my dog turmeric twice a day for her joints and hide the capsule in a pill pocket. Works extremely well. She never refuses it. I hope your dog gets better very soon!

Tonya, the name of the vet clinic in Richmond VA is Helping Hands Vet. I'm looking into it to since my dog has open Pyometra.

Active manuka honey 12+ or higher is an alternative antibiotic and so is grapefruit seed extract, ginger, turmeric etc...
Manuka Honey
I did a "therapeutic dosage" 3+ times per day for a week and then a backed off to a more modest dose (1X/day) for a month...JUST TO BE SAFE!!! I did not use Vitamin C, but if I did it again, I would add 1/2 tsp. Amla or Camu Camu powered 2X/day. Best wishes to you!
Manuka Honey
Can this manuka honey can this be found at a grocery store? Also, you said natural vitamin C. Should I go to a vitamin store for these items? I am willing to try my dog got sick over two weeks ago she isn't eating a lot, then she started with the discharge, I took her to the vet and was told she had pyometra. I also can't afford the surgery, my dog is 10years old. He gave her a two weeks supply of meds but I am seeing no improvement, she still has this discharge and very little food.
Manuka Honey
You can find Manuka Honey 15+ (ideal potency for us was this strength at least for the first couple of days) at Whole Foods Market, Sprouts and maybe even Trader Joes. We used Wedderspoon brand, and I can't speak to others. You can also buy online at Amazon and Vitacost.
Vitamin C appears to have been effective in many preparations, according to other posters. I simply prefer to get it from food sources (e.g., Amla or Camu Camu).
Last but not least, another woman use the same basic remedy but added turmeric, and I agree 100% that it could offer additional benefit, in my experience.
Hope all is going well and apologies that I didn't see this post until now.
Blessings to you,
Manuka Mom

What is the vet clinics name for the pyometra surgery?
Manuka Honey
How long do you keep giving the formula? I did it and she was better in one day so I scaled down to 2 times a day for a day and now it is back.

Hi,
I'd like to know how many days you continued the Manuka Honey, and can I add Vitamin C as well. I also have Colloidal Silver that I can use if needed. (80lb. Lab)

Is the lower strength Mannuka better as I bought the 200 strength as it seemed that it would work stronger?

I'm so very sorry to hear that you lost your baby Miss Mini to this horrible disease. I lost my 10 year old pug Lily to this aprox. 6 months ago. I had to have her put to sleep as I too could not afford the blood transfusion and surgery. At that time I had not read this article and was told it was the only thing to do. It was the most painful experience I've ever been through. God forgive me. Vets are all about the all mighty dollar these days. It's shameful that they will turn your pet away for the lack of money. I pray for the day our pets will be able to receive the same life saving medical care we receive. They deserve nothing less!!! My heart cries out for all the sweet pets that have been turned away and lost their lives because of it! I love and miss you Lily, your daughter and granddaughter miss you as well! Please forgive me. My love to you as well Miss Mini! Oxo

Hi Anthony, How is your pup doing now? Did you see a big difference in the CORE water after you gave it to her?

Hello, my dog just got diagnosed with closed pyometra also and the vet wasn't over $3000 for the surgery. I have been on my phone looking for advice and I am so happy to see your story. Please if you can give anymore advice I need anything. Thank you
EC: Many additional positive posts are on our Pyometra page, so please read them all.
Pyometra Remedies
This is a life threatening emergency - get your dog to the vet NOW.
It sounds like your dog has an OPEN PYO - this is better than a closed pyo but it still very much is a life threatening medical emergency and at this point in time few remedies will help.
Homeopathic remedies are most appropriate as your dog likely won't want to swallow anything. Off the top of my head, Nux Vomica is relevant, but Rescue Remedy is likely more commonly available. I would dose with rescue but no matter what get her to the vet. The longer you wait, the more ill she will become and the less chance you have of saving her life.
I have dealt with 2 pyos -1 open and 1 closed; the closed pyo my girl was ill and you could tell and spaying saved her life, the open pyo you could not tell until she had funky discharge and she was spayed as it was the more practical and economical solution.
Fingers crossed for you, please post an update.
Pyometra Remedies
I have a chihuahua that is way over 10 years old who is closer to 15 years old who has a swollen abdomen and just had menstrual bleeding off and on for 2 weeks and she hasn't had a heat period for years. She is very small and I am terrified that surgery to remove her uterus could be very dangerous due to her tiny size and age. Could she have this condition you speak of?
Pyometra Remedies
Hey Tina!
Pyometra is a life threatening situation and you must act swiftly if you want to save your dog's life.
There are two kinds of pyos - open, where pus can drain, and closed, where the pus cannot drain. A closed pyo is the worse of the two [both are bad] because the retained pus and toxins infect the blood and things go down hill very quickly when this happens. An open or draining pyo has a better chance of recovery.
In my experience dogs with open pyos can act like everything is normal, though they may be fussy about food - and then when the pus starts to drain you smell the foul odor and grab the dog and make a mad dash for the vet for an emergency spay. Dogs with closed pyos just feel awful, they run a fever, and they are lethargic. If you suspect a closed pyo grab your dog and run to the emergency vet for an emergency spay.
There are instances where at great expense you can save the uterus, but from my experience the most practical thing to do is spay your dog in the hopes you can save her life.
Now, given your dog's reproductive history she could have a pyo - or she might have some type of cancer inside that is causing the bleeding and the big, swollen belly. In either case, if this were my dog I would on the way to the vet.

WARNING!
My dog is in surgery at the moment for this. She got sick and our vet was on vacation. I took her to another vet 4 times over 3 weeks and they never caught it. I was using colloidal silver, coconut oil, and giving her some raw garlic mixed in with her food. We had to hand feed her. The day my vet arrived back he saw her and knew right off what she had. She did need antibotics and this is quite serious. My vet actually yelled at me about being negligent until I pulled out vet receipts for the other vet. The is quite serious and absolutely requires surgery. Antibotics can heal the infection until she is able to have surgery. I had to keep my dog on antibotics for 18 days with the vet seeing her 2 more times during that time until she was able to go in for her surgery.
