I dont know what to expect to see happen with this at all. I sure wasnt expecting anything on the first day.
We cooked up some ground beef and chicken livers with some squash and beef broth.i mixed in the fenben and vitamins. She slurped it right up.
My wife said she slept all day.its not unusual for her to sleep all day.shes a lazy mutt.
When i came home,i noticed the rancid smelling breath wasnt bad,could usually smell it across the room. I didnt say anything.out of the blue my wife said "i really cant smell her breath". She was drooling some gross looking stuff. I assume the lump popped and was leaking.
The lump on her face looked like it shrunk. I didnt say anything to my wife. Woke up this morning and wife was all excited cuz the lump shrank and she can open her eye all the way. The lump is literally about half the size it was.
I did not think id be giving an update for atleast a few more days or a week. I dont know if these changes are a good thing caused by 1 dosing or its a bad thing indicating the end is near. Ill dose her again this morning and see what happens.
Not sure if dogs/animals can get Herx reaction, but keep that in mind too. Feel like shit while it's working, then better after.
Thats kinda what im thinking is why she slept all day. But on the other hand,the vet said when she starts sleeping all the time and stuff leaking or bleeding means its near the end.
Im in uncharted territory here so we shall see.
Offer her some homemade chicken broth, cooked chicken, cooked veggies with a little broth and butter. Fed my dogs that when sick and they loved it. Was the only thing they'd eat.
I went out yesterday and got a bunch of ground beef,chicken livers,squash and beef broth. Im gonna hit the meat store this weekend and see what i can get for trimmings and scraps for her. Have my wife cook up a bunch of stuff that we can freeze and microwave for her.
I would skip the microwave heating. It takes longer but the food value will be preserved.
I have an old girl. My local grocery carries dog bones that have the marrow in them. Once a month I make bone broth, it’s very easy. Boil big pot of water with the bones and let it simmer for 24 hours. Then I freeze it in plastic bags. I make her food bc of her teeth. I started noticing a crazy improvement in her energy.
Maybe not microwave..............I've made my cat's food--raw food diet-- since about 1995. I have never microwaved and never will. As I understand it, it changes the food and not for the better.
