Homeopathy for Animals

Case of a Labrador:

What to do with a dog ‘Joane’ that suddenly gets ill with a severe gastroenteritis, and who is not responding to conventional treatment by his vet? He is a 2 ½ years old black labador with a beautiful shiny black coat.

He is losing weight and his heamoglobin has dropped to 8.7gm/dl.

He throws up anything that he takes orally and passes black offensive stools. Well, Mrs Mary, the lady who is his owner couldn’t tell me how exactly the stool smells,(as we meticulous Homoeopaths want to know !!) for she was crying uncontrollably.

Joane baby is like her child. She feeds him home made food, chicken soup, bhakri, eggs, tomatoes, and cucumber.(this lucky dog always has his day!)

So why this has happened is a mystery. He is well cared for and actually very pampered.

So I started probing with my Homoeopathic ‘scanner’ .How were things before he fell ill? Had something new taken place?

Mary revealed that she had recently brought in another pup, so that Joane wouldn’t be lonely. He was so cute that everyone was crazy after it, with handy cams, and toys, cuddling and pampering him.

How did Joane take this? He hated it, and flung the pup away with his nose when it came by to sniff him. Joane was really upset, and would go away and lie in a corner; that is when he took ill.

The pathology was acute, and almost critical. The vet has admitted him in hospital, and was trying everything possible to save him. But nothing was working. His condition was getting worse by the hour. Mary decided to try Homoeopathy. Offensiveness, blackness, and sadness were striking and so was his failing health.

The remedy given was Kali phos 200X, 2 tablets as a single dose. The potency was chosen because the cause was obviously the sadness, and dejection. It could have been Ignatia, or even Pulsailla. But black offensive stools were much like Kali phos. I also gave him Ferrum phos 6X , about 10 tablets dissolved in 200 ml of water, 2 teaspoonfuls every ½ hour to relieve his acute gastroenteritis more quickly.

What do you expect? He did not have a single vomiting and loose motion after that. Four days on he was taking normal food, and started to gain weight, and his Hb was improving.

He loves the Homoeopathic pills and has torn a new sofa where one pill had got stuck!
