Heartworm can be a silent killerโ€”yes, even if you're using chemical prevention! (But hopefully, you're using a natural ๐ŸŒฑ option). The truth is, dogs ๐Ÿ• can contract heartworm from just one bite by an ๐ˆ๐๐…๐„๐‚๐“๐„๐ƒ ๐ŸฆŸ mosquito, and we all know how relentless those mosquitoes can be around here! ๐Ÿ˜’

* A chronic, soft cough
* Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
* Vomiting (sometimes with blood)
* Low energy or lack of interest in exercise
* Weight loss

The ๐™œ๐™ค๐™ค๐™™ news? Itโ€™s preventable if you stay vigilant! And while treatment is available, success depends on how early it's caught. โณ Heartworms can grow up to 14 inches long in just 6 monthsโ€”gross, right?! ๐Ÿคข This is why yearly testing (ideally twice a year) is crucial. Consider it your petโ€™s mini insurance policy for their health and your peace of mind.
If you skip testing, you won't know your dog needs treatment until those worms have already done serious damage, making recovery harderโ€”and sometimes impossible. ๐Ÿ˜”

๐Ÿ‘‰ ๐“๐š๐ค๐ž ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ง๐จ๐ฐ: Book your dog's heartworm test today or at least set a reminder on your phone ๐Ÿ“ฑ.
There is absolutely no safe product that prevents heartworm. Your best natural defense is to feed a high quality diet and avoid chemicals to keep the immune system high-functioning and consistently using natural mosquito repellents. Prevention is always better than a cure, and your pets are counting on you to stay proactive! โค๏ธ

Iโ€™m beyond excited to share this incredible news โ€“ Kiwiโ€™s neutrophils are higher than theyโ€™ve been in the past 6 months, and I am ๐’๐Ž relieved! ๐Ÿ™Œ When Dr. Lauren called to give me the update, I was so overcome with gratitude and joy, I actually cried. ๐Ÿ’• Iโ€™m just so thankful we avoided putting her through a bone marrow biopsy! At least for nowโ€ฆ We may not be out of the woods completely, but this is a move in the right direction.

For those who may not know, neutropenia is when neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) are too low, leaving dogs more vulnerable to infections.๐Ÿฆ  For 6 long months, weโ€™ve been searching for answers as to why Kiwiโ€™s neutrophils were low while everything else in her bloodwork was completely normal. Weโ€™ve ran 17 different types of tests, but nothing seemed to point to the cause or give answers.

Thatโ€™s when I decided to try something different โ€“ I cooked her food! ๐Ÿฅ˜ And guess what? ๐๐Ž๐“๐‡ separate times her neutrophils shot back up into the normal range!! This is ๐‡๐”๐†๐„! ๐ŸŽ‰ Although weโ€™re still piecing together the full picture, this feels like a win, and weโ€™re celebrating it!
Weโ€™ll be running another blood test (CBC) on the day of her spay surgery to ensure her neutrophils remain steady, but for now, it seems that gently cooked food is the way to go for Kiwi. She's eating well, playful, maintaining her weight, and her other bloodwork looks great! ๐Ÿพ
This experience proves that raw food isnโ€™t always the best option for every dog, although raw will always be my top recommendation for healthy dogs. If you know a pup with persistently low neutrophils and theyโ€™re on a raw diet, encourage the pet parents to try gently cooking their food for a couple of months and retest. (**Never cook food that contains bone content and always make sure it is nutritionally balanced). This small change could make a world of difference, like it has for Kiwi. โค๏ธ

Letโ€™s be realโ€”divorce is tough! But have you ever thought about how it affects your dogs? Itโ€™s easy to assume theyโ€™ll just adapt, but the truth is they can feel the emotional shifts just like we do. Anxiety, depression, even behavioral changesโ€ฆ all very real possibilities. ๐Ÿ˜”

When I went through my separation, I was ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ง๐™ง๐™ž๐™›๐™ž๐™š๐™™ ๐Ÿ˜ฌ of how my pups would handle it.
In my journey, I was fortunate in one major way: Pet custody wasnโ€™t up for debate and thankfully, my ex knew theyโ€™d be better off with me full-time! However, the big question wasโ€”how could I make this transition smooth for them? I knew I had to get it right for their sake.

This is an oldie but a goodie! However, I do understand that sometimes raw is not an option, but I still want to help dogs get healthier.
So while raw will always be my preference and recommendation, I am willing to work with those that canโ€™t feed it.

*********************************************๏ฟผ๏ฟผ

๐Ÿ•โš ๏ธ๐Ÿฉ RANT WARNING:
If thereโ€™s one thing I wish pawrents would take more seriously, itโ€™s their pets food. Pets are like family to us & we hurt immensely when we lose them. So we should be taking the best care of them so it will keep them healthy and extend their life!Feeding them a high quality, raw diet that is species appropriate is the best thing you could do for their health. Yes, they can live on kibble. But eventually the toxic chemicals that are in the kibble will wreak havoc in their bodies and expose a disease and/or sickness eventually. If you want your dogs to actually thrive, please consider feeding them a good quality raw diet. Feeding a clean, raw diet will keep their immune system at an optimum level, keeping them healthy & allowing their system to fight off a lot of issues that they might come in contact with. Hence, also not needing as many vet visits. (But thatโ€™s a whole other rant). Just look at this comparison.
The first ingredient isnโ€™t even protein in the RC kibble - itโ€™s FILLER!! ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ”ซ
The second ingredient still isnโ€™t meat protein and the third ingredient is whatโ€™s left of a slaughtered chicken AFTER the choice cuts have been removed!!
Vets get very little training in school on diet & nutrition. And what they do get is usually sponsored by the big kibble companies. Not to mention the kickbacks that the vets receive for selling the products. And of course, by feeding your pet these brands, eventually causes sickness, which then means you need to go see the vet and pay him for his services. Itโ€™s a viscous cycle!! Just like in our own healthcare, doctors donโ€™t always know the best or can make mistakes. It is up to us to be our own advocate for our own health. Therefore, it is our responsibility to be our pets advocate for their health too.
Please understand, I am not bashing anybody who feeds their dogs kibble, Iโ€™m merely trying to educate because I do realize that sometimes we just donโ€™t know, what we donโ€™t know. But when we do know, we try to do better.

I was asked recently why the moringa products sold in stores are so much cheaper and what makes PMB the better optionโ€ฆ ๐‡๐š!!! ๐Ÿ˜† Itโ€™s a valid question, so let me tell you!!!

While both offer moringa leaf powder, PetMoringa ๐ŸŒฟ Balance stands out showcasing its superior quality due to 4 very important aspects:

#1 - PetMoringa is a ๐…๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐’๐ฉ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฆ product. What does "Full Spectrum" actually mean?! It means preserving ALL cannabinoids and terpenes from the whole plant in the final product. PetMoringa is the most potent product ensuring the best efficacy and uses the leaf, seeds and the pods. Not just the leaf, like the other brands.

#2 - Sourcing, harvesting and processing is done with the ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐œ๐ญ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐œ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐š๐ง๐ข๐œ ๐Ÿ๐š๐ซ๐ฆ๐ฌ and is dried suitably so the live enzymes and other compounds are retained.

#3 - PMB boasts a ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐š ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐›๐ข๐จ๐ญ๐ข๐œ๐ฌ, ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐›๐ข๐จ๐ญ๐ข๐œ๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž ๐ž๐ง๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฆ๐ž๐ฌ making it an excellent all-in-one option to meet your pets needs.

#4- Beyond moringa, PetMoringa brand offers additional ingredients ๐ข๐ง๐œ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐œ๐ก๐ข๐š ๐ฌ๐ž๐ž๐๐ฌ, ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ค๐ข๐ง ๐š๐ง๐ ๐›๐ž๐ž๐Ÿ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ to round out the amazing benefits of this near-miracle product.

Basically, anything the generic moringa does, PetMoringa does too ๐๐‹๐”๐’ it raises the stakes by offering even more benefits with serious potency, which is why itโ€™s my favorite pet product!

โœจ Unmatched in quality and packed with extra health benefits, PetMoringa Balance is a step above the rest. ๐Ÿ’š Off brand imitations only offer a fraction of what the premium PetMoringa Balance offers.

๐Ÿ˜‰ Hope this helpsโ€ฆ

Years ago I stumbled onto holistic dog health, and in early 2020 I started to help others grasp the concepts of natural ๐ŸŒฑ methods and common sense for the health of our dogs. I wanted to give pet parents the knowledge and confidence to deal with some common dog health issues so they wouldnโ€™t have to run to the vet for every single thing.

Unfortunately veterinarians (and human doctors), even with their degrees ๐Ÿ“œ in hand, do not have X-ray vision to see ๐Ÿ‘€ what you canโ€™t see. (Unless they are actually doing imagingโ€ฆ ) The point is, unless your dog is in distress, most times they are probably suffering from an upset tummy, a bout of diarrhea or just feeling off, the same as we humans do on occasion as well. That means that unless you think your dog is in serious distress or has been โ€œfeeling offโ€ for an extended period of time and may need further ๐Ÿฉธ testing, the vet simply goes by what they can observe - which is the same as what you can see.

If you think your dog has an upset tummy, and has constipation or diarrhea - try giving them some extra fibre by using a small amount of canned pure ๐ŸŽƒ pumpkin.

If itโ€™s constipation, (which can also present itself with runny diarrhea because something may be blocked and only liquid can squeeze through), you can give 1/4 tsp (for a small dog) of coconut ๐Ÿฅฅ oil so the harder ๐Ÿ’ฉ p**p can move more freely out of the system.

A bout or two of bright red diarrhea can induce panic easily. But take a breath, ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จbecause the brighter the blood, the closer to the a**s is where the bleeding is coming from and the dog was probably straining hard to p**p and may have bursted some capillaries. This happens a lot when any form of stress has happens, and that can include the slightest changes in their surroundings or routine - itโ€™s called stress colitis.
BUT if itโ€™s a dark red colour, that is where it may likely be coming from further inside their system and may need a vet ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€โš•๏ธ visit right away - possibly pancreatitis.

If your dog has vomited ๐Ÿคฎ and it looks like undigested food, give them a minute to see if they will re-eat it. Yes, this is gross, but this is whatโ€™s referred to as regurgitation. Dogs ๐Ÿถ do this often, especially in the wild if they need to re-process what theyโ€™re eating so it digests better. Itโ€™s perfectly safe and normal.
If they vomit up liquid, foamy, yellow bile that signals that their belly is empty and is expecting food. The stomach acid is building up from being empty, it then builds and comes up. Evenly spacing their meals through the 24 hours in a day (fed 2x a day, space 12hrs apart or fed 3x a day, space 8 hrs apart) or giving them a small snack before bed generally fixes this issue.
If they vomit semi digested food and donโ€™t re-eat it, they quite possibly have an upset tummy and they just need time โฐ to reset their system. You can give them some raw goats ๐Ÿ milk to settle their stomach and let them rest for a good amount of time.

Allergies ๐Ÿคง is where you need to make some changes, and is not an overnight thing like the vet allergy shot, but if youโ€™re invested, I can help.

The point Iโ€™m trying to make is that if you go to the vet, they are only going to be guessing ๐Ÿค” because they generally donโ€™t know a thing about your dog. Plus, they will probably give ๐Ÿ’Š antibiotics, most likely without testing and seeing any Band Cells that actually signal infection. And as we all know, antibiotics will destroy the good gut bacteria ๐Ÿฆ , that is trying to help rectify whatever may actually be going on. Then, ideally, you would want to detox those antibiotics so the system can get back to a better state. Most times itโ€™s better to use the natural ๐Ÿƒ ways we promote here instead of boarding the train ๐Ÿš‚ of being a constant customer, spending way too much ๐Ÿ’ธmoney at the vets for products that only mask symptoms and have hindering side effects.

All of these little things are completely normal on occasion, and more often than not do not require a vet visit if you know how it handle them. Keeping your dogโ€™s system healthy and balanced with a species appropriate ๐Ÿ– diet, as chemical-free โ˜ ๏ธ as possible and assessing the situation with a calm, clear head can do wonders. Doing so, your ๐Ÿ• dog will have better capabilities to get over these things on their own with some of natures help. Keep in mind that a lot of the things we are told to do by the vet community is whatโ€™s making and keeping our dogs from being as healthy as they can be. But in this ๐Ÿ‘ฅ community, I can help you through most of these issues - I can give you the guidance to empower ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ you to: BE YOUR DOGS HERO! ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

When my dog Trooper was diagnosed with late stage Kidney Disease, I was told he had a very limited ๐Ÿ˜ข time left. As in a month or soโ€ฆ So I know how stress inducing and scary this diagnosis can be. And although we canโ€™t cure ckd, we can try to slow the progression. And thanks to a holistic approach that focused on nutrition and natural supplements, Trooper lived 2 years longer with good quality of life, than the vet predicted. ๐Ÿ”ฎ

Donโ€™t give in to misinformation! Itโ€™s NOT about restricting protein, itโ€™s about the QUALITY of the protein. And you canโ€™t get quality protein from any kibble or canned foods. One of the most important factors is diet โ€“ specifically, a raw diet that supports proper calcium:phosphorus ratios and ๐Ÿ’ง hydration! Itโ€™s crucial to focus on proteins that have a balanced calcium:phosphorus ratio. Avoiding proteins with high levels is key ๐Ÿ”‘ as these minerals can strain the kidneys and exacerbate the condition.

Please note there is a portion of the protocol that is mandatory and then 6 other options that you can do as well, but you must follow the minimum recommendations at the very least.

Start by finding these products. You may need to source from more than one store or order online, but time is of the essence with this disease so donโ€™t waste time and find/order these items ASAP if youโ€™re dealing with this:

#1 PRIMAL RAW in TURKEY & SARDINE ๐Ÿฆƒ
(Or another brand, but it must be a high quality raw in Turkey, making sure there is no chicken, beef, lamb or duck mixed in.) You will feed only this protein until their blood test numbers come down, which can take 3-4 months. Only at that point can you switch it up between Turkey/Sardine, Rabbit, Quail, Pheasant, Venison, Pork as these are the low calcium:phosphorus ratio proteins.
Frozen is cheaper than freeze dried, but the freeze dried must be rehydrated with plenty of water only. (1/4 cup of water per 1 oz freeze dried).

#2 RAW GOATS MILK ๐Ÿ
This is an excellent enticer when they feel sick and can soothe their tummy. This is also very good to mix with some water to entice them to drink more. Drinking more helps to flush the kidneys. I prefer Big Country Raw for Canadians and Answers for those in the US. Be sure not to use any flavoured raw goats milk or ones that contain turmeric for puppies.

#3 CRANIMALS ORIGINAL or PETMORINGA FLOW ๐Ÿ”ด
Make sure itโ€™s the Cranimals Original and not another option, and donโ€™t let a store clerk sell you any other brand. If they donโ€™t have it in stock, order it from the website I listed below as it will probably come in much sooner.
This helps the kidneys and prevents urinary tract infections. Kidney patients often are prone to UTIโ€™s and when Trooper would get them I wouldnโ€™t go to the vet - I would treat it at home by raising his dose of Cranimals and giving him Colloidal Silver. For daily dose you can mix this in their food or I actually found Trooper preferred to have it mixed with about 1 tablespoon or so with about 1/4 cup of water, 3-4 times per day. Keep in mind he was a 7lb Yorkie so amounts will vary depending on the size of the dog.

#4 PETMORINGA BALANCE ๐ŸŒฟ
This is the game changer product for the protocol. PMB is packed with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, pro/prebiotics, digestive enzymes, omega 3-6-9 and 36 all natural anti-inflammatories in it. Dogs love the taste so for the most part they happily eat it, but if their phosphorus levels get out of whack and they donโ€™t want to eat, making a paste with this and swiping onto their gums every couple hours can help level them out and bring back their appetite. Because of the kidney issue, doubling the dose at least in the beginning can help flood the system with these benefits faster. This is not sold in stores. I carry some for locals and you can just PM me if youโ€™re in Windsor, ON or you can order through this link: https://the-healthwhisperer.com/?ref=JAYDENOVAKOVIC

#5 TRUST THE PROCESS ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ
This is the part where you have to have faith and toss all vet prescribed food and meds!!! And absolutely NO vaccines or flea, tick and heartworm prevention meds! We have alternative products for flea and ticks that are natural, safe and effective. With major sicknesses like these we must detox the body of any and all chemicals and synthetics so the body can start to heal and work as designed. With vet meds and Rx food, itโ€™s only hindering the system and masking the symptoms.

All of this will get you and your beloved pup started. The next 6 items are recommendations that can also help when added to this protocol:

-CORDYCEPS MUSHROOMS ๐Ÿ„โ€๐ŸŸซ
Cordyceps mushrooms may help lower creatinine levels and protect kidneys from oxidative stress. I like Real Mushrooms brand.

-SUB Q or IV FLUIDS ๐Ÿ’‰
Having these done can really help quality of life especially once they get into Stage 3. Some dogs can tolerate it as itโ€™s a simple prick of a needle to get some fluids into them and itโ€™s best to do it a few times a week at higher amounts or lower amounts done daily. Vets charge a fee to have it done in office or they can teach you how to administer it if youโ€™re able and comfortable to do it yourself. Alternatively, you can look for an in-home pet service or a local vet tech friend that could come to your home, like we were lucky enough to have in the beginning.

-GREEN TRIPE ๐Ÿ’š
Offering high quality green tripe can be very helpful. And even though itโ€™s a beef product, the tripe in beef is acceptable due to its extremely low phosphorus levels and palatability. Most dogs love it, so itโ€™s a good enticer when they donโ€™t want to eat. But be warned, itโ€™s stench will shock you.

-REHMANNIA 8 (aka Ba Wei Di Hoang Wan) ๐Ÿชด
This is typically dispensed from a holistic vet. The brand I used with Trooper was โ€œNatural Path Herb Companyโ€. Itโ€™s a white bottle with green on the label. Please do not purchase from Amazon. You never know what sort of quality you are getting there especially when it comes to Chinese herbs.

-NETTLE SEED ๐Ÿซ–
This tincture may help reduce creatinine. (Pg 609 Vet Herbal Med textbook.)
* Dogs under 10 lbs, 1/16 tsp, 2-5 drops tincture
* Dogs 10-25 lbs., 1/8 tsp. dried herb, 5-10 drops tincture
* Dogs 25-49 lbs., ยฝ tsp. dried herb, 10-20 drops tincture
* Over 50 lbs., ยพ tsp. dried herb, 20-40 drops tincture
Or you can use organic tea from tea bags and sprinkle on food.

-OZONE THERAPY โš•๏ธ
I did not use this service because I couldnโ€™t find a place that offered it near me at the time, however Iโ€™ve known others who it helped their kidney dogs.

๐Ÿ• While every dogs situation is unique, this approach has proven to extend the quality and length of life for many dogs, including my beloved Trooper. And if you're looking for personalized guidance on how to implement this holistic protocol for your dog, I'm here to help. Book a ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ป consultation with me, and Iโ€™ll provide you with step-by-step instructions, trusted recommendations on where to purchase the necessary items, specific product suggestions, and the ideal timing for testing. Plus, youโ€™ll have a compassionate ear to support you every step of the way.

๐Ÿšจ Let's get this straight - cooking raw dog food that has bone in the grind is a massive NO!
I was floored when a follower shared that a raw dog food store OWNER actually suggested this. And no, the brand wasnโ€™t made of calcium carbonate; it had real ground-up bone in it! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ This is wildly irresponsible and downright dangerous.

๐‡๐ž๐ซ๐žโ€™๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ฒ:
๐Ÿ. ๐‚๐จ๐จ๐ค๐ž๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐ƒ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ: Cooking ๐Ÿฆด bones, whether whole or ground, combined with waste matter can create a hard f***l mass that the dog may not be able to pass. Internal bleeding, ruptured stomach or intestines, sepsis, or intestinal obstruction that needs surgical intervention, even death is a real and life threatening possibility. This is not a risk you should ever take.
๐Ÿ. ๐ƒ๐จ๐งโ€™๐ญ ๐ƒ๐ž๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐Œ๐ข๐œ๐ซ๐จ๐ฐ๐š๐ฏ๐ž: Heating or defrosting raw food in the microwave can be just as risky. Microwaves cook from the inside out, even on defrost. Always keep it raw! ๐Ÿฅฉ
๐Ÿ‘. ๐๐ž๐ฐ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐‚๐จ๐จ๐ค๐ž๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ž๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐†๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ฅ: Itโ€™s not just the bones in their food you need to worry about. Whether itโ€™s a turkey leg ๐Ÿ— that fell off the counter or an uncle slipping Fido a BBQ rib at a family reunionโ€ฆ The result? A potentially fatal blockage or injury that could cost thousands in emergency vet billsโ€”and even your dog's life.

๐๐จ๐ญ๐ญ๐จ๐ฆ ๐‹๐ข๐ง๐ž: Always scrutinize ๐Ÿคจ where your information comes from. Not all advice is good advice. And know that feeding cooked bones, in any form, is a gamble with your dogโ€™s life. The potential vet bills, the stress, the heartbreak ๐Ÿ’”โ€ฆ None of it is worth it. Always keep it raw, and always keep your dog ๐Ÿ• safe.
Stay informed, stay cautious, and always prioritize your dogโ€™s health.

๐“๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐๐ซ๐จ๐œ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ

Occasionally, I start working with a new follower who is not accustomed to natural ๐ŸŒฑ dog rearing. Theyโ€™re obviously here because theyโ€™re curious, which is great. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

I work with them closely, guiding them step-by-step to get onto a better path for their dog, and after some time, they start seeing good progress. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

But if or when they hit a bump in the road, and something doesnโ€™t go right such as digestive issues or a flareup, which is usually caused by the detox process, the pet parent gets scared and goes back to their old routine. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ
Sometimes they even bring the dog to the vet where they get more fear ๐Ÿ˜จ inducing lectures on how raw food or or natural remedies can be detrimental to their dogs health, and they switch back to the, pardon my french, โ€œcrapโ€ the dog was eating or using before. This is the frustrating part of what I do and I wish more people had more faith and could trust the process. These natural options are not miracles in the fact that they can always change things immediately with every dog, HOWEVER overtime you will definitely see amazing ๐Ÿคฉ and positive outcomes overall if you stay the course.

So Iโ€™d love it if everybody could drop a comment below โฌ‡๏ธ letting other new or skeptical ๐Ÿคจ pet parents know how giving natural options time to work, did wonders for your dogs overall health.
