5 out of 5 stars

To keep our dogs alkalized we just throw a little lemon juice or bakin' soda in all their water bowls.

I read that D-mannose (cranberry) would eat up e-coli as my be-loved 15 year old dog has it in her bladder and no antibiotics are killing it. So I gave it to her and the urine test was a little improved but it created a dangerous acidic 4 level in her urine. Now I read vitamin c and cranberry create acidity in dogs. I am desperate to lower her PH level and find an antibiotic that will kill this infection. I did the culture thing and we have tried every antibiotic that should respond to this and they do not. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am afraid to do anything that would make it worse now.

Theresa

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.

About Theresa

Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.

Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.

Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and  fueled  her quest for the knowledge held in lore,  and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

Hey Joy,

You might consider colloidal silver as an antibiotic, and baking soda in the water to alkalize.

I have read that baking soda causes the body to become alkaline. I do not know the mixture but you can look it up easily and research it before administering.I hope this helps.

A breeder and dog show handler recommended starting with one tablespoon of Apple Cider vinegar and working up to 2 tablespoons of Apple cider vinegar in our dogs water bowl. My holistic doctor also recommended using it for myself.
