You know how Carmen & Sophie have been having that tummy trouble for the past few months? Well, I finally took them in to the homeopathic vet last week. They went to see Dr. Donna Starita. I took BC & Bastet to see her a year or so before they died and I believe she really helped them.
I can't find my sheet that I took all my notes on at the moment, but basically Dr. S said that whippets are very sensitive dogs and they are picking up on negative energy in their environment (wonder where that is coming from). The stress that they are feeling is effecting their gut which is why they aren't healing with conventional treatment (antibiotics). She gave the girls a bunch of meds to take to heal, soothe, and improve their guts.
They also got a new diet that they aren't totally thrilled about yet. They can have eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese, barley, and sweet potato for the next week or so. They love the egg and cottage cheese, but aren't too thrilled with the barley or sweet potato. I've found that they will pretty much eat it if I mix the egg in with it.
I can't say I see a lot of improvement yet. I need to call tomorrow and make sure we are doing everything okay because we had a couple of piles of diarrhea with barley in it in the kitchen this morning (mmm, sounds yummy!). I think it might have been Sophie, but I'm not sure.
Anyway, stay tuned for more information on the inner workings of my dogs. Do I lead an exciting life or what?
