Thank you, Dr. Christina!

After reading your post, I gave her some watermelon and she loves it!

Hello - Today after a routine chiropractic appointment the vet pointed out that my senior chihuahua mix named Xia may be dehydrated (her gums are a bit sticky). I am not alarmed since Xia's BEAM is very good and over the past 3 days she walked about 12 miles. I am going to make an appointment...

Thanks for your feedback, Peter. I am hesitant to give it in water because my pup will never drink the entire bowl so I don't know how much she will get from one day to another.

That is great, I also give raw goat milk and kefir, as well as fermented foods (thought I don't buy any pet formulas, I just share the sauerkraut that I eat). I will look into getting Happy Tummy to have on hand.

Christine - do you routinely add any other digestive supplements such as probiotics or digestive enzymes in addition to ION to the food?

From first hand experience, stones are stones. They can be created in the kidney and then travel to the bladder or they can be created in the bladder. Impossible to know.

Thank you for such a comprehensive response,@Dr. Jeff. @JoannaJ - I am sorry that your puppy is going through so much pain. As a pet parent I understand the anguish you are going through. I also found this post of particular interest because I have been dealing with kidney stones myself. My...

Hi @Dr. Jeff - I received the answer from their customer support and they said: It will be great to hear from Dr. Bush. Ive

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...

I will share all these suggestions with my friend. And I will recommend offering flower essences in a separate water bowl (in addition to just clean water). Thank you!

Excellent point about the smells and oils on hair ties. This cat is also trying to eat and chew on other things such as blinds. I think a lot of it has to do with the stress of moving, etc. Thanks.

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...

Hi Christine - Xia no longer has diarrhea. Thank you for the recommendation for flower essences. I want to have them on hand.

Hi Melinda - can you elaborate a little bit on "summary of the dates." I am not familiar with that feature. PS - I agree that iPhone screen is small and hard to read!

Hi Nancy - I am not an expert but I believe Neem is one of the key herbs/plants in Ayurveda and that every part of the plant is used. I was told that people chew on the branches to maintain oral health. Also, I was referring to neem powder (not oil) and at the minimum powder has abrasive properties.

Hi Nancy - I am aware of couple of other options couple of which I have tried: 1) New Zealand Deer Velvet + Manuka Honey Oral Spray is a product that I believe has been discussed here. I believe it is a natural product that helps with the overall health of the mouth, gums and teeth. Also...

I tried that once... I was cooking stake and I cut off a piece and gave it to my little one... she swallowed the hole thing and of course started choking... worst three minutes of my life. Now I prefer something like the photo attached... no bone is too big!

I noticed that fat, regardless of the source, results in softer stools (even bone marrow). Do you do anything for their teeth now that they no longer eat bones? That is why I wish I could feed them to my little one. Although she is doing pretty well for her age and breed, she has all of her...

Do you recommend any specific flower essence for this situation? I have Rescue Remedy, and, during the worst day last week, I would put the essence on my hands before petting her. Thanks!
