Hemorrhagic gastroenteritis (HGE), is a potentially life-threatening condition seen primarily in 2- to 4-year-old toy and small breed dogs. The cause of this mysterious condition is unknown; primary symptoms include the sudden onset of bloody diarrhea and vomiting that ultimately also turns bloody. Diagnosis is made based on symptoms, specific bloodwork measures and a diarrhea panel. Treatment for HGE is primarily supportive and must be started immediately and aggressively to achieve the best outcome. A percentage of dogs who have one episode of HGE will have a recurrence, so it’s especially important for guardians of those dogs to know the signs and seek immediate veterinary care.

Chronic bronchitis is a condition in which there is persistent inflammation in the airways that move oxygen from the trachea to the lungs Chronic bronchitis is seen most often in toy and small dog breeds, however, larger dogs and cats can also suffer from the condition Triggers for bronchitis include infections, parasites, airborne fumes, mold and dust The classic symptom of chronic bronchitis is a harsh, dry, and hacking cough Treatment for a pet’s chronic bronchitis is aimed at eliminating the underlying cause of the condition, relieving airway inflammation, slowing the progression of the disease, and alleviating coughing Article link:https://bit.ly/40XoJch Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

Encephalitis means inflammation of the brain, and it may be accompanied by inflammation of the spinal cord (myelitis) and/or inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord (meningitis). The disease is either the result of an infectious agent or it is termed “idiopathic,” meaning the cause is not known. However, idiopathic encephalitis often has an underlying immune-mediated cause. Symptoms of encephalitis depend on the area of the brain that is affected, and usually come on suddenly and progress quickly. A confirming diagnosis often involves a spinal tap. Holistic veterinarians typically use therapies such as homotoxicology, ozone therapy, and herbal protocols in conjunction with traditional treatments for encephalitis patients.

Dogs occasionally get constipated, however, if your dog is regularly constipated, it’s important to find out what’s causing the problem and the best way to resolve it. Your pet should poop at least once a day, every day; dry, hard stools that are difficult to pass are a sign your dog is constipated. In otherwise healthy pets, most constipation is caused by lack of adequate water and/or dietary fiber; however, there are also more serious problems that can cause or worsen the condition. The foundational treatment for constipation in dogs is offering a moisture-dense, nutritionally balanced, biologically appropriate diet. A constant supply of fresh drinking water, daily exercise, added dietary fiber and appropriate supplements are also very important for constipated pets.

There are many reasons that dogs and cats can lose their vision at any age. Is your pet showing any of these telltale signs? Four things you can do to help prevent blindness, and how to help your vision-impaired pet feel secure and comfortable at home. Partial or complete blindness in dogs and cats can be present from birth, the result of an injury or illness, or the result of an age-related eye disease. Causes of pet blindness that are not congenital or age-related include several medical conditions of the eye, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and cancer. Symptoms of a gradual loss of vision in a cat or dog include misjudging heights, bumping into things, disorientation, and a change in the appearance of the eyes. There are many things guardians of partially or completely blind pets can do to help them feel secure and comfortable at home, including keeping their environment unchanged, and avoiding loud noises and sudden movements.

Involuntary passage of urine normally occurs while your pet is asleep or resting. It can be just a small wet spot or a good sized puddle, depending on how much urine is being unintentionally passed This is not a behavioral problem, it’s a medical problem — so trying to correct or punish your pet is a bad idea on multiple levels The cause of your pet’s urinary incontinence will dictate what treatment she receives. If your pet is diagnosed with hormone-induced urinary incontinence, I strongly recommend you consider attempting to treat the problem naturally Article link: https://bit.ly/48nyiDR Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

Struvite stones are bladder stones that develop in both dogs and cats. The condition accounts for over a third of all urinary tract stones in dogs and about half of all urinary stones in cats. The problem is seen most often in female pets at middle age Struvite stones can be caused by alkaline urine, steroid therapy, abnormal retention of urine, a urinary tract infection, or another disorder of the urinary tract. Common symptoms include frequent urination, straining to urinate, urinating in inappropriate places, cloudy or bloody urine, and increased thirst Diagnosis of a stone will include manual palpation of the abdomen, urinalysis, a urine culture and sensitivity test, x-rays and ultrasounds If urine flow is completely blocked, this is a medical emergency and you should have your pet seen by a veterinarian right away. Otherwise, the situation can often be managed with medication and dietary adjustments To reduce urine pH — which is the goal in most struvite situations — you must feed your pet a low-carb, grain-free, potato-free, species-appropriate diet. When dogs and cats who are designed to eat meat are fed a grain-based diet or a starch-rich diet, the starch alkalizes urine pH, which can lead to the development of struvite crystals and stones. Sometimes, surgery is required to remove stones in the urethra, ureters or bladder Article link: https://bit.ly/4aFiNtd Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

Diabetes insipidus, often called the “other” type of diabetes, is different from the more common diabetes mellitus, though they share some symptoms Diabetes insipidus, or DI, is a metabolic disorder in which the kidneys aren’t able to reabsorb normal amounts of water. That’s why one of the chief symptoms of DI is the production of large quantities of very dilute urine There are two primary types of DI, central diabetes insipidus, and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. There’s also a less common third type called psychogenic diabetes insipidus Symptoms of DI besides excessive urination include extreme thirst with increased water intake, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, house soiling, weight loss, poor coat condition and disorientation Treatment for a pet with DI will depend on its cause. Some forms of DI can be cured, while others will be with the animal for life. Caring for a pet with diabetes insipidus includes insuring the animal has access to fresh water at all times, as well as constant access to a potty spot Article link: https://bit.ly/3R680zb Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

The sounds, sights and smells of nature have many therapeutic benefits. Find out how indulging in this perfectly natural activity for 30 to 60 minutes can improve both your pet's well-being and your own. Nature therapy, aka forest bathing, is the practice of immersing oneself in the sights, sounds and smells of nature for improved health in body and mind A feature of nature therapy is grounding or earthing — putting the body in direct contact with the earth's surface — which may also provide both physiological and behavioral benefits Grounding can benefit the body; walking barefoot outside or sitting, working, or sleeping indoors on a grounding mat can improve sleep and may reduce pain. Studies also show that grounding reduces inflammation and improves circulation The best way to ground yourself and your pet is to spend time outdoors with your bare feet and your pet's paws in direct contact with the earth; if you or your loved ones can't get outside regularly, grounding mats can be used indoors for both human and furry family members Article link: https://bit.ly/47zgTaX Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

If you're not familiar, you may be stunned by its sudden onset and major intensity. All of its strange symptoms point to just one thing. So if you see any of them, get your pet to medical care with all due haste, because this one is a true medical emergency. Saddle thrombus is a very serious condition that occurs more often in cats than dogs and is alternately called feline aortic thromboembolism (FATE). The "saddle" is the point in the abdomen at which the aorta splits into two arteries to supply the back legs with blood flow; a saddle thrombus is a blood clot that typically lodges in the wedge at the top of the saddle. Symptoms of FATE involve one or both rear legs, which turn cold and hard as the muscles and nerves swell due to lack of oxygen and nutrients. An affected pet may drag one or both hind legs and cry out in pain. Saddle thrombus is a life-threatening medical emergency. Pets who survive typically require a great deal of nursing care until they are mobile again, and unfortunately, recurrence is common. A very encouraging alternative treatment for saddle thrombus is medicinal leeching. I also advise long-term ubiquinol supplementation for all heart patients, and nattokinase for FATE patients to help prevent future blood clots.

Each year, tens of thousands of pet parents reach out to their veterinarian or an animal poison control hotline because they know or suspect their pet has ingested a toxic substance Most pet owners are aware that there are products around their home that are toxic to their dog or cat, for example, antifreeze or rat poison. But many don’t think twice about the potential toxicity of the medications they take on a regular basis Topping the list of human medications that are ingested by pets are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (e.g., Advil), followed by acetaminophen (Tylenol), pseudoephedrine (a decongestant), and several varieties of prescription drugs In households with pets, each family member must be diligent about keeping their own medications out of reach of the dog or cat. Veterinary medications should be stored away from human medications to prevent accidentally giving the wrong drug to your pet Even over-the-counter herbal medications, including human vitamins and mineral supplements, may cause serious poisoning in pets Article link: https://bit.ly/3F8p9CB Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3DMX1nS Website: https://bit.ly/3s0cHlh Podcast: https://bit.ly/3KwKSr1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BarkWhiskers Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bark_whiskers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bark_whiskers Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@barkandwhiskers Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/barkwhiskers/

Dr. Becker chats with Dr. Jean Dodds, the leading authority on thyroid disease in pets. Dr. Dodds discusses the best tests for an accurate diagnosis of hypothyroidism in dogs, and why some cats go from hyper to hypo. Dr. Jean Dodds is a world-renowned expert on thyroid disease in pets, and today she discusses the importance of using the right tests to accurately assess thyroid function in dogs and cats. Canine hypothyroidism typically goes undiagnosed until it is far progressed and 70% or more of the thyroid gland has been compromised. Dr. Dodds recommends a complete thyroid antibody profile versus the total T4 test. Hyperthyroid cats often become hypothyroid within a matter of months after medical intervention that inactivates their thyroid gland. These cats do quite well with added thyroid hormones that return them to a state of metabolic balance.
