    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Hi just checking in with an update. Boo's doing much better the last few days. She's now back to more normal sized meals without the obvious discomfort/pain and seems to have more mobility in her back too. I've bought the 2 books you recommended Ginny so have been doing reiki and t-touch on...

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Thankyou Ginny for the reassurance, I have. She seemed happy on a walk and ate half her dinner. She did react (go to nip) to my husband when he stroked her stomach last night so she's obviously feeling very sensitive in that area. We'll keep going with your suggestions and see how she does :)

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Just an update, Boo didn't eat any of her raw meat yesterday which is really unlike her. She did eat some of a mashed banana in the afternoon but that was it. She's not eaten any breakfast today (even with me trying to hand feed) and after a 10 minute play this morning seems to be more lethargic...

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    That's really interesting, thanks for that. The holistic vet we're waiting to see does acupuncture so that's definitely something I can discuss with her. Boo has some 'lumpy tissue' (up to an inch long and not particularly hard or round so the vet ruled out growths) either side the more...

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Thanks Ginny, that hasn't been mentioned before. Our regular vet has said she has calcification along the mid section of her spine so would chiropractic treatment be suitable for this? Her vertebrae stick up more in that section but I wasn't sure if there was much that would remedy the...

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Thanks Thanks Dr Jeff, Earthpulse looks like our best bet at the moment and seems to have good reviews for pets. Boo was actually sick last night and we found a plum stone and scraps of blanket she must have been chewing off so that must have been affecting her stomach quite a lot! She does...

    Whippet Back Pain & Loose Stools

    Hi again, So Boo (5 year old whippet) has shown a big improvement in her symptoms since we started at Holistic Actions in July. However the last few days I've noticed changes in her Beam....back pain has flared up (although no change in exercise) and stools are very loose. I gave...

    Dog with pancreatitis, meningitis, lower back issues; had diarrhea and vomited blood

    Her BEAM wasn't quite as good as it had been, whining from obviously feeling uncomfortable in her stomach and more lethargic than before. I think you're right that it might be the new supplement which is a shame as it was supposed to help soothe her digestion! I didn't give her a dose...

    Dog with pancreatitis, meningitis, lower back issues; had diarrhea and vomited blood

    Just after a bit of advice now we're further down the track. Following our chat last week Dr Jeff I added in some tree bark powder to further help Boo's digestion symptoms. Her stomach seems to be more uncomfortable over the last 3 days and she's been getting us up in the night for bowel...

    Dog with pancreatitis, meningitis, lower back issues; had diarrhea and vomited blood

    I got hold of our local holistic vet but unfortunately she's away next month and isn't taking any new clients until September. Are Dr Christina's herb recommendations suitable to help Boo's digestive system in the meantime? Or are they not relevant unless she's vomiting?

    Dog with pancreatitis, meningitis, lower back issues; had diarrhea and vomited blood

    Thank you, yes that makes a lot of sense. I've used the info on here to put together bit of a plan moving forward to incorporate more of what Boo enjoys day to day and hopefully keep her happier. The lameness was strange, we didn't see any obvious injury...at the time I remember thinking it was...

    Dog with pancreatitis, meningitis, lower back issues; had diarrhea and vomited blood

    Hi Dr Jeff, Thanks for your reply. From what I gather in the notes they have it down as suspected meningitis meaning they felt the symptoms fit but it wasn't confirmed by a neurologist.... "P presented off sorts. Onexam, howls on ventral flexion of neck , CM T:105.8. Adv Possible meningitis...
