Bladder stones form when minerals in urine become highly concentrated. Like making rock candy, the process starts with a “nidus” (a tiny particle), around which layers of minerals crystallize.

According to the American College of Veterinary Surgeons (ACVS), surgical removal is often recommended for certain types of urinary stones in pets. For instance, stones causing a blockage in the ureter may require removal by a ureterotomy. Alternatively, procedures like ureteral stenting or subcutaneous ureteral bypass (SUB) systems can be performed to allow urine to pass from the kidney to the bladder, bypassing the obstruction.

Some types of stones could potentially be dissolved with a special diet, but the process is slow and there is a risk of a stone(s) becoming lodged in the urethra and creating an emergency situation.

After surgical removal, the stones should be tested for their mineral composition and cultured to identify the organisms growing. This is critically important so a plan can be implemented to prevent stones from recurring. Become an Empowered Pet Parent Today www.transformingvetmedicine.com

The Illusion Of Quick Fixes for allergies: Steroids And Immune Suppressive Drugs Are Harmful And Can Result In:

•Weakened immune function
•Increased risk of infections
•Liver damage
•Increased cancer risk

Medications that carry additional warnings:

•Zenrelia: This medication includes a boxed warning advising against vaccinating dogs for at least 28 days before or after treatment. Studies show risks such as immunosuppression, poor vaccine response, and potential fatal vaccine-related diseases in some puppies treated with Zenrelia during vaccination periods (fda.gov).
•Apoquel: According to its product insert, side effects may include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, anorexia, skin masses, decreased leukocytes, infections (skin, ear, and urinary tract), neoplasia, pneumonia, and bloody diarrhea (petdermatologyclinic.com).
•Cetirizine (Zyrtec®): Though generally safe, cetirizine can cause vomiting and excess salivation. At high doses, small dogs and cats may experience sleepiness. Products like Zyrtec-D®, which contain pseudoephedrine, are unsafe for pets (vcahospitals.com, petmd.com).

These medications work by mimicking cortisol, a hormone that suppresses the immune response. While these drugs temporarily alleviate symptoms, they do not address the root cause of allergies, Leaky Gut.

Did everyone enjoy that chat last night on carb consumption in dogs on Raw Pet Medics?!

I did, anyway. To summarise, yes, it seems some dogs in certain breeds have expanded out the gene for amylase production. That is a fact. But in a sea of genes that scream a meat-based diet, the fact that the last few thousands of years of carb scraps from humans (and the last 80 years of intensive carb-feeding by vets and candy companies) has lead to this interesting, teeny, tiny steps towards trying to safely deal with this new nutrient source, is no reason whatsoever to move what is most certainly a meat eater to twice the amount of refined carbohydrates than are recommended for humans to eat.

Again, just because I have more copies of the gene coding for alcohol dehydrogenase compared to many Asian brethren, does that mean 60% of my energy intake can safely come from beer?!

Please God let that be true.

Now, if you needed to check the answer to that, who would you ask? You could ask a) Heineken, makers of beer, b) the owner of the biggest bar in Dublin, sellers of beer, or c) you could ask your health authorities.

Which one would you ask?

Well, if you're in the US, I honestly don't know which one of those I'd choose.

Check this out - 25% of food stamps in the US are for junk food such as crisps (chips in the US) and soda.

Children on food stamps consume 43% more sugar-sweetened beverages than nonparticipants of similar income levels, leaving them at elevated risk of disease.

Unsurprisingly, adults on food stamps have a higher rate of obesity than nonparticipants with similar incomes.

The net result is food stamp enrollees are more likely to be at very high or extremely high risk of disease.

That's what a high-carb diet does to humans.

EVERYONE and their dog knows this.

Our high-carb-fed dogs and cats have the same diseases, at the same rates, for the same reasons.

Those 50-60% refined carbs you're feeding your pets, be they wheat, corn, potato or pea flour, are all SUGAR to your pet. Same impact on the body.

It's a DISGRACE this s**t is still being recommended by our vets but when our oncology departments over here can't bring themselves to get carbs off the menu for patients with cancer, we're all starting to understand why.

Manufacturers of soft drinks raked in up to $6 billion in profits from food stamps in 2016.

One business creates the disease. Another treats it. Perfect.

Godspeed Robert F Kennedy. .

A keen dog lover, someone needs to make sure big pet food gets his attention over the next 4 years.

Anyone who has experienced a urinary tract infection (UTI) knows just how uncomfortable and painful it can be. As humans, we’re fortunate to catch these issues early because we can verbally communicate the symptoms. But when it comes to our pets, they first communicate through a change in behavior. If we miss these subtle signs, the discomfort can progress into more severe symptoms.

The key to preventing these issues lies in providing our pets with a lifestyle that supports a healthy terrain so that we can avoid the need to treat dis-ease. Comment "Not Normal" and I will send you the link to the full breakdown of UTIs in cats!
