Hello -
I was wondering if anyone on here knows if ION* Gut Support For Pets may be mixed in dog's food instead of the way it is described on their website (given using a syringe or in the water). Maybe you had experience with this product or you got feedback from the manufacturer. I went in...
Hello - I am certain that the topic of pets eating foreign objects has come up in many seminars but at the moment I am not able to locate any of them. Can somebody please point me to either a recorded session or an article that discusses this issue. A friend who is going through a lot of life...

Hello -
I am posting this under Supportive folder (not Medical Disease Challenges) because I do not think that I am dealing with a Medical issue. However, I would appreciate insights from all of you.

Hello. Are any of you aware of an iPhone app that allows you to track a pet's symptoms easily? If yes, what is it, and how has your experience been?

I am curious if anyone has experience or opinions about use of BPC-157 (body protective compound-157) Peptides capsules. I learned about this compound from a local raw food expert who has written an on-line post about it and is recommending it to help dog's with (1) joint and tissue support; (2)...

Xia is in very good health overall. On Sunday, around 2:30 in the afternoon she fell from my arm and hurt side of her body. The impact was big. She yelped, peed and...
Over the last couple of years, during our daily walks in Golden Gate Park, my pup and I noticed a couple of mallard ducks living together. What makes this story unique? Apart from the fact that one of the ducks is white, they both seem to be male ducks. We call them Clark and Gable. We check on...

I am wondering where one could find...
Hello - this evening, during the ritual petting time with my 11 yo dog Xia, I felt a bump on her skin under the fur on her right shoulder. This bump looks like pus filled pimple, but I fear it may be something more serious (e.g., a parasite). Xia's BEAM is good. This bump is in the area where...

Hello -
My dog Xia, 8.5 lbs Chi mix, who is generally in good health, and is on a raw food diet, ate a single grape this afternoon.
I have seen many posts recommending inducing vomiting right away but given that Xia's BEAM is good I would rather not go that route.
I read a different thread...
Early this summer, my dog Xia, an 8 lbs chihuahua mix, started itching and, after several failed approaches, feeding mackerel helped identify the cause.
Xia is on a home prepared raw diet consisting of about 80% raw protein (meat and organs) and 20% cooked leafy vegetables mixed with...

Since there have been recent cases of dogs diagnosed with the Canine Influenza Virus I would like to ask the Forum members for their thoughts about:
1) Diagnosing Flu - I understand that symptoms are similar to that of Kennel Cough (coughing / sneezing / nasal discharge/ decreased appetite...
