Dogs are glyphosate sponges, and this time of year it’s hard to avoid chemical exposure, it’s everywhere.😷

They walk barefoot, roll in grass, lick their fur—and rarely shower off environmental contaminants. Inside the body, Glyphosate (Round-Up) mimics the amino acid glycine, hijacking protein function and disrupting health. Glycine is an amino acid that supports detoxification by helping the liver produce glutathione, a key antioxidant involved in removing harmful substances like glyphosate.
💦Yes, rinse those paws after exposure to sprayed areas, but supplementing with extra glycine 💊 can help block glyphosate’s effects inside the body by occupying those sites and supporting healthy protein synthesis and detox pathways. This amino acid does more than build proteins—it defends them 🦾.

"Acupuncture has been widely incorporated into rehabilitation protocols for dogs and cats because of its potential analgesic efficacy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential positive effect of integrating acupuncture and electroacupuncture techniques on the recovery of ambulation capacity in non-ambulating paraparetic patients undergoing physiotherapy in the postoperative period following mini-/hemilaminectomy for thoracolumbar spinal cord decompression due to acute disc extrusion. Forty-one patients were included and underwent descriptive and analytical statistical analysis, divided into two groups: dogs that received a physiotherapy protocol with acupuncture and dogs that received physiotherapy only. The results showed that the dogs in the acupuncture group had a higher likelihood of regaining ambulation."

Study Highlights:

•This study investigates h**p seed oil's potential as alternative antimicrobial therapies in veterinary small animal dermatology.

•Hemp seed oil demonstrated antimicrobial activity against multi-drug resistant bacterial strains.

•Hemp seed oil showed synergy with gentamicin, reducing MIC of resistant S. pseudintermedius strains effectively.

•The findings indicate h**p seed oil may be a safe and effective alternative or adjunct to conventional treatments for localized skin infections.
