Seeking Help for Dog With Chronic Kidney Disease Shereen (Mallorca Spain) on 09/05/2025
Looking for some advice my 8 year old dog, who is now 33 kilos, Retriever Labrador, now has chronic kidney disease. I see apple cider vinegar is suggested but exactly how much? Should it be diluted in water and how much water. Does it need to be a special type? Is there anything else natural she should be taking that will help her recovery? She is on a prescriptive diet of Hills food for kidneys and medication prescribed by the Vet.
Many thanks in advance.

I never noticed a change in urine color from borax.

I took my 3 yr old Doberman mix to Longview Lake Park which is just 2 min from where we live. I take him there several times per month and there are rarely any other dogs out there when we go and last night there were no other dogs there.
When we got in the car to start driving home my boy Doberman mix began licking the air incessantly and couldn't stop. I thought he was going to throw up so I drove home as quick as I could. When he got out of the car, he immediately started eating grass. I let him in the backyard where there was plenty of water and grass.
30 min later he wanted in and he was hacking as if something was caught in his throat. He was still doing some licking in the air. I offered him some chicken jerky treats that I buy at Walmart and I offered him the one that has cassava root in it, which he rarely eats and he ate 5 of the Chicken jerky treats.
Then he proceeded to drink water over and over again and cough and gulp the air as if something was in his throat for 2 hours. I finally realized he had all the signs and symptoms of what vets call Kennel Cough.
I did a google search and found a thread from 2012 where Ted replied to a person in Chiang Rai that had a kennel with lots of dogs that often had Kennel Cough or Flu in Dogs and Ted recommended Lysine along with a couple of other things.
The only thing I had on hand was powdered Lysine that I buy direct through Bulk Supplements (don't buy through Amazon as I've received fraudulent supps from them 3 x's earlier this year and Bulk Supp Magnesium Oxide was one of them).
I put a 1/4 of a teaspoon in the palm of my left hand and pried his mouth open and slapped it on his tongue and shut his mouth down so he didn't inhale it. He was considerably better, but was still going for the water bowl which isn't like him.
So about 15 minutes later, I double downed with another 1/4 of a teaspoon of Lysine. That did the trick!
No more licking, gulping air, hacking/coughing or appearing as if something was stuck in his throat and he stopped going to the water bowl.
He went to lay down in his bed after that. It is now the next morning and he is right as rain. Thank you Ted and Earth Clinic.

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.

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.

Please share below what remedies have worked for you personally and your cat. I am more interested in knowing herbal tincture, capsules, plant oils etc.
I have covered the air purifier and dust free home part.
Thanks in advance.

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.
