    My pup won’t eat

    Dr Jeff, Luke did not eat at all yesterday. He vomited water in the morning then spit up a couple times during the day. Now today he had about 2 bites of food but he likes his duck treats and had 3 of them. He is drinking ok. I did give him the Nux Vomica 12c this morning with 3 smacks. How do...

    Gross tick

    Dr Jeff, Steve was giving Luke a drink and this huge engorged tick came out of his mouth! What! He saved it. I brushed his teeth daily and I did not feel it on his gums. Do I start him on Ledum? WTH! Can Luke catch a break and should we have it tested?

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Hi Dr Jeff, Luke was doing fabulous again for 3 days, eating, drinking (he loves the ice balls by the way), peeing, but he hasn't pooped today is day 4. Been dosing on your recommendations 15x, 3x per day, and he was doing wonderful. Eating his venison with bone broth and I made cubes with...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Hi Dr Jeff, Luke had another vomiting spell where so much liquid came out! Is the water just storing up in his stomach? He’s been peeing but where is all this water coming from? Should we have an X-ray done to see if there’s something in the esophagus or that flap is not closing right...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    I guess I spoke too soon. Luke vomited water 3 times this afternoon. Steve and I are the bad guys. Last night Luke had been feeling so good so we decided to give him some steak which had some spices and 5 tops of popcorn! I know!!! We just felt he was feeling so good. So the poor dog paid for...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Hi Dr Jeff, Luke has been doing great. I've been giving him the Nux Vomica twice a day like you recommended. I've also been giving him cooked meat and veggies not pureed. He's had a great appetite and his energy is great as well. This morning he ate fine, then he started looking for more water...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Happy Saturday Dr Jeff, Luke finally pooped last night and he had more energy in the afternoon and wanted to eat. We all had a great nights sleep and felt refreshed. This morning we took him out and he was dragging a little, but he peed and ran after what he thought was a rabbit. We brought...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    So after I panicked about Luke's BEAM this morning, I spoke with Jane and she put my mind to rest about homeopathy. She mentioned that the way it works is that they go through a period where they seem to be not well for a few days, then they recalibrate and balance. After your last message...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Dr Jeff, Luke is doing well this morning and did pretty good last night. He did not vomit, but it seemed he had a little reflux. After just one dose I'm so happy and grateful. He ate his favorite steak and eggs this morning, chopped and pureed the meat. He also had a couple of spoonfuls of my...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Just following up with our call... Succuss the cup 5x, dip a Q-tip into it and touch the wet swab anywhere on Like's gums. Save the cup for reuse for all the doses. You do not need to add any other pellets. - I assume I'm giving him this everyday for a week and if so am I succussing it 5x...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Dr Jeff, Luke was doing fine on Sunday. By 8:30 pm he was acting weird, just standing and staring. His burns seemed better which was a good sign. We all went down to bed because as you know we did not sleep on Saturday night. So he went to sleep until about 12:50, then he got up and just stood...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Hi Dr Jeff, Thank you so much for reaching out on a Sunday. It was such a nice feeling to know that you already care about Luke. I have also been reading your book and I absolutely love it.

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Thank you for your response. I've tried the coconut and aloe, but was concerned with the aloe and him licking it because I read it's toxic to dogs. Anyway, he has been so agitated and cannot get comfortable. I've even put cool towels on his belly but it is not helping. The area under his arms on...

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Dr Jeff, as you know Luke had the ultrasound and they shaved him very close. Today Luke has been besides himself with razor burn near his penis. It's all red and raised and I've been putting warm coconut oil on it. What else can help this situation? Aloe? Any of recommendations?

    Kidney Issues with my pup

    Thank you for your response Dr. Christina. We did see a great holistic vet but he is only working one day a week. I did find and integrative vet and her hours are 4 days a week. There is one more person who is a holistic acupuncturist for dogs. She will be contacting me next week, so I do have...

    @Dr. Jeff Hi my name is Donna Bradbury and I have a 5yr old Australian labradoodle named Luke. He is 37lbs and full of life and love. I have been opposed to vaccines since I read all about them. The breeder where we got Luke had given him his puppy shots, none of the L vaccines. And not...
