Natural Healing for Itchy Dog

May 4, 2012 By

Rosie’s owner Sue contacted us mid-December 2011 with the following email:

I’ve just been looking at your website regarding itchy dogs.

I have a rescue staffy, aged about 6. She is completely raw fed using the BARF method and also has flaxmeal, inner health powder, glucomine and glucosamine each day. Plus some Chinese Herbs from the vet. She doesn’t get bathed, has no fleas, no chemicals at all I.e flea treatment, heartworm etc.

Her coat gleams, she has no rash, raw patches or any other marks but scratches, rubs herself on the ground and chews her paws constantly.

I’m really interested in what you say about healing from the inside, when she starts an itchy episode, her eyes flair up, get quite red and she gets a slight discharge from them.

Kind Regards  Sue C.

We suggested Sue send us a photo of Rosie so we could review her for run a series of healing plans on her to clear her itch.  Here is what she said in response:

Thank you for your quick response! Not doubting you (well maybe a little :) ) but how can you work from a photo?

Rosie’s back legs were injured as a pup so both her back kneecaps are twisted (luxating patellas is I think what vets call it). She has been xrayed but because if her age there was no guarantee that being operated on wouldn’t make her worse. We manage this with lots of exercise on lead plus the glucosamine. However it does mean that she puts a lot of weight on her front legs so in a photo that may give you the wrong impression.

Anyway I’ll take a couple and send them to you.  Sue.

This is a common response from our clients.  We use the photo as a focus point when doing our muscle testing.

After initially reviewing Rosie we could determine that 3 plans would have her back on track with regard to her health.

Sue sent us this update on 4 May 2012:

I must tell you about Rosie, some time ago she did stop itching but I guess we’ve just been following the healing plans and it happened slowly so we didn’t really take it in. Maybe cos I haven’t seen her for a few days but last night I really noticed that:

Her coat is thick and shiny.
Her previously bald back legs are now hairy.
She isn’t itching
And most amazing of all, her back legs have got amazing strength in them. When we started this journey, she couldn’t easily stand on 3 legs, now she puts no more weight on her front than her back legs (remember I told you she’d had an accident when she was a pup?). She’s got nice muscles in her back legs and no longer looks too big in the front.

So a very happy outcome thank you Cathy!!

Treating OCD in a dog

October 23, 2011 By

Atlas was diagnosed with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and heavy suppressive medication was prescribed.  His owner Liz is a client of ours but didn’t immediately consider us for treating Atlas.  Another client and friend of Liz’s suggested we were worth trying in this complicated issue with Atlas.

Here is Liz’s email after running Atlas’s first healing plan:

Atlas & I went for a walk today.

Walking since he was 6 months old has been on a black dog training halter & he is 4yrs on 6th November 2011.

A normal walk consisted of Atlas grabbing at the lead to take in his mouth at every street crossing or cars passing us, head on a constant swivel, sideways, backwards etc. grabbing grass mouthfuls as we walked, then coming home to stop him running is obsessive compulsive circles, jumping at a non existant spot on the ground & then running more circles, so I used to crate him for 1/2hr to calm him before he was allowed back in the yard.

Today was AMAZING.

Halter on him, but lead of 20cm from handle to tip of clip was on his FLAT COLLAR. After about 20 mins into a 45min walk, I took the halter off his head. Atlas only grabbed the lead ONCE at the beginning of the walk & made eye contact & let go of the lead, I did not even have time to signal him to let go, he did it on his own.

I have to say he was watchful, but not head on a FAST SWIVEL as was ‘normal’ before, there was NO fast swivel, yes he looked from side to side & every so often checked behind us.

At one stage I dropped the lead to put a poo bag in a bin & before that would have been enough for him to TAKE OFF running circles on me, but this time we KEPT eye contact & he just stood next to me & never moved —- YIPPPPPPEEEEEEE.

We walked in rain mizzle, no rain & it was just BEAUTIFUL.

He also used to grab mouthfuls of grass as we walked, this only happened twice & then only ONE blade of grass. I noticed he moved closer to me when cars came past us & was so CALM — cars have always been a ‘stresser’ for Atlas.

Treats on the walk, I still have FINGERS, he was GENTLE — that is a FIRST, I have always had a crocodile teeth cattle dog, but NOT TODAY —- MORE YIPPPPPEEEEEEES.

We came home & today I did the ‘unthinkable’, we went straight out into the yard, I unclipped the lead, & offered a treat, which was taken, he had a drink & picked up a toy to play, ate more treats, —— there was NO stress RUNNING, no CIRCLING, I had a CALM dog — again I have NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE.

WOW, I am amazed & pleased & so so super happy. I have a different, calmer, more snuggly cuddly, loving dog — thank you so very very much.

Kelpie with Kennel Cough

June 1, 2011 By

Mac the Kelpie comes down with Kennel Cough

I’ve just sent through an order for some more remedies, but just wanted to send you a little note to thank you for the HWE tonic. My 8mo kelpie pup was exposed to a friend’s dog with a strong kennel cough. When I was told a few days later, I noticed he was snorting like a piggy, so I started the HWE drops and it went in a day or so. He then went away to a woman to be looked after for 4 days as I had to go interstate, who wasn’t able to give him the drops, so when he came back he had it again, quite badly, so I started on the HWE drops again, and it went in a day and a half. Very happy customer.

Cat with cramps

March 18, 2011 By

Sue contacted us on 29 January 2011 with quite a number of issues – mainly for her horses but there was one question that related to her aged cat, Aimee:

My Birman cat, Amie, is 16yo and she has started occassionally cramping in her front legs, so much so sometimes that when she cramps in both legs at once she kind of lifts herself up at the front and ends up falling over.  If I massage her neck & hold her under the chin at the same time during one of these cramping episodes she usually gets out of the cramp within a minute or two.
amie

10 February 2011 – Amie, my 16yo Birman cat, well she’s nearly back to kitten stage again……no more cramping in her front legs since I started her on the Arthritis Remedy.  I started her on 4 times a day and I now give it to her twice a day which I will continue to do – Thank You, Thank You :-) ))))))))))))))))

19 February 2011 Amie – unbelievable, she has not had one cramp in 2 weeks, it really is a miracle remedy.  The way she is, I think (& hope) she’s going to live for another 16 years.

18 March 2011 – Amie has now been on your ‘Arthritis Remedy’ for just over 2 months and has been totally cramp free for over 6 weeks. I reduced her to one dose daily 2 weeks ago but will keep an eye on her as the weather gets cooler towards winter – simply amazing :) ) To think all the time & money I have spent on vets with no success, she was actually getting worse until your remedy.

A week or so ago I saw your article on a chinese crested dog that had severe conjunctivitis; Amie has had a discharge from her L eye since she was hit by a car over 10 years ago & the vets told me that it was a form of Herpes & to buy the cold sore cream Zovirax & put that in her eye, which of course I have done religiously for the last 10 years until I read your article and thought I’d give it a go as I had nothing to lose by trying………low & behold it has worked, no more discharge – another ‘Heal With Ease’ MIRACLE :) )

Healing LD after two failed poisoning attempts

June 15, 2010 By Leave a Comment

This article is about a Blue Heeler Dog called LD that after two failed poisoning attempts has no appetite and has occasional seizures.

LD’s owners contacted us back in March 2010 with the following email:ld

Our Blue Heeler LD has been diagnosed with an infection to the stomach that is causing him to get skinnier and is not eating properly even though he is on steroids, he is epileptic as the result of 2 failed poisoning attempts.

LD’s poisoning has obviously affected him very deeply so we suggested running a series of healing plans for him.  These plans are created specifically for the individual based on their presenting symptoms and history.  There is no one size fits all with healing plans.

Update on LD as at 1 April 2010

LD has been eating quite a lot of grass lately and appears to have put on a very small amount of weight around his belly.  His ribs and backbone are still quite noticeable though.

Update of LD as at 1 May 2010

He is putting on some weight, despite his backbone still being quite visible.  We have changed his diet to more of a meat diet with some dog biscuits and this he loves.

Update of LD as at 8 June 2010

Well is has been about 2 weeks now since LD’s last treatment.   He is coming on really well, and has put on some more weight as well as muscle.  He is very happy within himself and thoroughly loves his walks.(This was something that had pretty much grinded to a halt prior to us contacting you at the beginning).   He is eating well morning and night.  I was cooking up his meat for a while with some rice, carrots and silverbeet to really give him a boost and to help with his problem of swallowing. He is back to eating the raw meat now and seems quite happy with it all.

Up until today, we had not given him any of the Phenobarbitone tablets (he was getting  1 each morning and night previously).  All told Ron said it has been about a month that LD has been off the tablets.  Unfortunately while on his way back from his walk today he saw another dog and got quite excited.  He was in the process of crossing a grid when this happened.  Due to his excitement he kind of slipped a bit then jumped up and fell on his stomach. After he picked himself up from his slight fall he started to go after the other dog til he hit the end of the lead.  That’s when he started to go all wobbly and went into his fit.  Ron said he appeared to want to fight the dog.  Ron thought that maybe seeing the dog brought back memories of fighting (His previous fits came about after a bit of a scuffle with Blaze).  Ron then rang me and I took down some of the tablets and Ron gave 2 at first then after about 5 minutes gave him another 2.  LD settled down after this.  He is quite fine now.

LD is now comfortably eating and putting on weight.  He went about a month without the medication he had been previously taking twice a day.  We are still working on his predisposition to fitting/seizures with continuing healing plans.  Ron and Linda are seeing regular improvement in LD’s general wellbeing and with time and patience we are confident of lifting out of his body the cause of his fitting.

We will update this page as we work along with LD’s healing.

Alternatives to Vaccinating Dogs

May 26, 2010 By Leave a Comment

There is becoming a worry among dog owners that vaccinating their dogs every year is not healthy for them.  Is it safe, what is in the vaccinations and is it really necessary?

In Australia, at present it is very difficult to be involved in dog sports of any kind and kennel your dog without an up to date vaccination certificate.   Now if vaccinating your dog is only upsetting his/her health then how can you get around this problem and still be able to play sports and go on holidays.

In Europe and America it has been proven that the majority of dogs will keep their puppy vaccinations for life and a special blood test called a titre test can be conducted and this information provided as proof of immunity to sports clubs and kennels.  Although not commonly available in Australia, it is possible to have it done and we need to push our vets to provide us with this service, for the sake of our lovely animals.

Read about Judes’ dogs vaccination reaction and how we helped her with quick action using our Heal with Ease Homeopathic Remedies.

Daily we treat dogs with symptoms of vaccinosis – they aren’t all the same, sometimes it is immediate and you can relate it exactly to the vaccination, other symptoms will come up over weeks/months and range from skin itches, digestive problems, anger issues, lethargy to generally being unwell.

Following is a copy of an email received by us from Marlene in South Australia regarding how she had this titre test done for her German Shepherd, Kaiser after a serious reaction to his vaccinations.kaiser

In 2008 Kaiser was vaccinated with a booster for Distemper, Parvo, etc. (C5).  He had an extremely bad reaction, which lead to me researching the effects of vaccinating dogs.  He lost all the pigmentation from his lips and gums, became depressed and his coat became dry and brittle.

In 2009, when I was notified that he was due for his vaccination, I chose to convince the vet. who does not believe in this, to perform titre testing.  The results came back from the Colorado State University via IDEXX Laboratories as:

Canine Distemper Virus antibody SN titre    :    1:128
Canine Parvovirus antibody HI titre              :    1:256.

I was horrified after my personal research to find out what the repercussions of over-vaccinating can be, and I do not want to subject Kaiser to any more toxins as I am convinced that, had I chosen to have him re-vaccinated in 2009, he would not have survived.

If you feel your dog has suffered an adverse reaction to vaccination, order our detox remedy today and start them on the road to better health.

Natural Treatment for Cushings Disease

March 20, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Aussie’s owners first contacted us in early January with the following email:

aussie

We were reading your testimonial for Minnie with Cushings disease, and it would appear our 14½ year old female blue/red cattle cross is also suffering from Cushings disease. She’s been through the wars a bit lately with a mast cell tumour surgically removed from her chest in November, 2008, and two more from her side in December, 2009. She’s also had an issue with skin itching forever too.

We were wondering if you may have specific recommendations for her.

Her history is pretty simple. She’s a blue/red cattle dog cross (de-sexed at 6 months) (we suspect there’s other breeds in there too). She’s had a flea allergy, and skin irritations that have appeared at different times of the year.

At about 5 years old she had a cruciate ligament injury to the left rear, which was never operated on. The vet’s advice was to see if she handled it (which she did) until about the age of 10, where we found she was a bit arthritic, and started her on rimadyl when required. In the last couple of years, we’ve used Previcox (half a tablet per day when any pain noticed)

In November 2008 she had a mast cell tumour (about the size of a cricket ball) removed from her chest, and then in December, 2009 she had another two removed from her side.

She’s now on a cartrophen injection once a month, and we also give her Previcox at about half a tablet per day when needed. Often we run quite a while between giving her these (when she’s not displaying any symptoms of pain).

She’s a bit finicky with food at the moment, but by mixing things up a bit, she’s still eating enough.

She’s prone to scratching and the latest thing is plucking her tail. She was a bit itchy on her sides from being shaved for the most recent operation, and we used a small singlet to prevent her from scratching her stitches. She plucked her tail (one of the attached photos) probably because she couldn’t scratch her side. Previously, we’ve used Cortavance spray applied topically to help with the scratching. At the moment, we’re using Cort-Hex anti-inflammatory antibacterial cream on her tail.

We’re ready to try homeopathy for her to see if it can make her more comfortable in her older age.

Mark & Leeanne P.,Wishart

We recommended the course of three healing plans for Aussie, plus a Beginners Kit and a bottle of HWE Tonic. The plans will deal with the specific underlying causes of Aussies issues, the Beginners Kit will help us to manage day to day things that come up and the HWE tonic is to rebuild Aussies’ immune system along the way.

Aussies’ owners were happy to go ahead and the first healing plan remedies, Beginners Kit and Tonic were sent a few days later.

Update on 19 March 2010

We have been giving her the tonic at night and tonight is the final part of the treatment. She has been pretty good and has been eating a lot better.

Mostly sleeps through at night. I have had a couple of nights with her wanting to go out.

Sleeps a lot through the day and wakes up in the afternoon and is quite social.

The past couple of days she has been drinking more than she was, mostly when she wakes up at night. She likes to drink out of my pot plant.

Aussie is better now – eating and getting around better, generally feeling better in herself. We must remember she is nearly 15 years of age. Her symptoms of Cushings Disease have settled but we will monitor her closely and a third healing plan will be sent for Aussie in the next few months.

As Cushings Disease is brought on by deep seated poisoning, we have advised Mark & Leeanne to avoid all toxic treatments and reduce chemicals in their home and garden.

Healing Itchy Unhealthy Skin

February 24, 2010 By Leave a Comment

This case study is about Phoenix a beautiful Chocolate Lab that I had the pleasure of spending a morning with just prior to Christmas 2009.

Phoenix’s mum Robyn purchased a Beginners Kit off us at the Pet Expo held at the showgrounds in April 2008. It wasn’t until October 2008 that we really started working with Robyn, when she made contact with us regarding her concern for Phoenix’s health and skin conditions.

Working with Phoenix has been a learning experience for us. Seeing a young dog which responded so well to the treatments but easily slid backwards when the slightest thing happened. eg. when the local pet shop slipped her some kangaroo meat and she had a serious reaction, when the bats were living in the tree over her yard and she became sick again. It was obvious to us and Robyn that Phoenix was a some level quite toxic from something – anything that pushed her a little would tip her over and make her ill again.

We had her riding along quite well for a while. You can read the testimonial that Robyn wrote for us at that stage by clicking here.  Then Robyn became worried about worming and heartworming Phoenix and although we really felt it wasn’t a good idea (Robyn and us), Robyn found a product the vet thought would cause minimal side effects and within the day of giving her this chemical product, she was sick, her itch and rashes returned.  Robyn tried to return the rest of the product to the vet, but of course they weren’t interested.

Once again we were working to heal Phoenix and this was intensive.  We were determined to clear her up once and for all this time.  Three back to back healing plans followed.  These dealt with emotional, mental and physical issues as well as a two week run on detoxing remedies.  We pushed out rashes, heat, lumps and bumps and there were times when Robyn was worried, emailing us constantly and phoning needing reassurance and support.  We were there with her and for her every step of the way.

On 13th February 2010 Robyn emailed this photo of Phoenix’s beautiful coat.

well-phoenix

Needless to say Robyn and Phoenix are very happy.  But it was a long journey for us all.

We wanted to share this case study with you because it means a lot to us that Robyn believed in us enough to keep going and now the results reassure her that it was worth the effort.

If Robyn had been on the vet chemical rollercoaster, Phoenix would have become sicker and sicker with little chance of full recovery.  Robyn’s vet bills would have made her wonder about the logistics in keeping a high maintenance pet.  It doesn’t need to be like this for anyone.  Homeopathic medicine when used correctly can heal most illness – long and short term, chronic and acute.

Heal with Ease was created by us as animal lovers that want to help others achieve long term good health for their pets.

Contact us today if you are having pet health issues at healwithease@bigpond.com or phone on 0755441711.

Following are some of the photos Robyn sent us of Phoenix throughout her healing:

Cushings Disease in Dogs

January 10, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Using a combination of homeopathic and other energy remedies, we have had incredible success in relieving the symptoms of Cushings Disease and all our clients have gone on to live health lives.  Read about some of our clients that we have treated for Cushings Disease.

What is Cushing Disease?

Hyperadrenocorticism is one of the most common hormonal disorders in middle-aged to older dogs.photo-of-minnie

The disorder, also known as Cushing’s Disease, is caused by the harmful effects of high cortisol concentrations on many organs in the body.

Cortisol is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, which are located near the kidneys.

Most cases of hyperadrenocorticism are caused by enlargement of the adrenal cortex. The enlargement may be caused by tumours of the adrenal gland that produce adrenal hormones (15% of cases) or of the pituitary gland (located in the brain) that produce excessive ACTH, a hormone which stimulates the adrenal gland to produce corticosteroids – this form of the disease is referred to as pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism and accounts for around 85% of cases. The tumours can be benign or malignant (cancerous).

The signs of hyperadrenocorticism can also be produced by the long-term, daily administration of large doses of corticosteroids.

Symptoms that may indicate Cushings Disease:

  • Excessive urination (polyuria)
  • Excessive thirst (polydipsia)
  • Increased appetite
  • Pot-bellied or bloated appearance (pendulous abdomen)
  • Hair loss (alopecia) – usually symmetrical
  • Rough coat
  • Thin, fragile skin
  • Increased skin pigmentation
  • Calcified lumps in the skin
  • Enlarged liver
  • Panting
  • Lethargy
  • Muscle weakness
  • Muscle atrophy
  • Lack of oestrous cycles in intact females
  • Testicular atrophy
  • Facial nerve paralysis

    • Heal with Ease has worked with a number of clients with ‘Cushings Disease’.  Really it is just a label and when working with homeopathy we work with the body as a holistic being taking in all the symptoms, plus any other factors, like environment, emotional and mental stresses like rehoming, surgery, grief.

    If you have a dog with the above symptoms then if you want go to the vet and a diagnosis but it isn’t necessary for the work we do here.  As mentioned above the name is only a label and doesn’t deal with the body in a holistic way, nor does it give a solution to the problem.  Using homeopathic medicine we can assist you to lift the symptoms and the underlying cause of the problem.

    Our Personalised Healing Plans are the best option for animals showing the serious symptoms above.   Please email us at healwithease@bigpond.com and we will answer any questions you may have.
