    My dog was dying due to excessive vomiting and diarrhea for 2 weeks. After about 1k in vet bills and no help, a vet on a consultant app told me to give him pepcid ac. In 6 hours, he was showing massive improvement and he recovered fully.

    A very long time ago, when I was 10, my cat, Tuffy, came home with a severe wound around his ear. My step dad was old school and would not take an animal to a vet. So my step sister and I worked together to clean the wound with straight peroxide and an ant bacteria ointment. We changed his bandages every day. Tuffy was fully healed in a couple of weeks. Fur fully restored in a couple of months. We were 10 and 12 when we did this.

    • @Dontstopbelievingman
      @Dontstopbelievingman Рік тому +9

      One thing I do now is ask, what exactly will the vet do for this wound? Unless they're stitching it closed, most of the time they give you antibiotics (just in case), which as we know is not necessarily a good idea, unless there's a good reason, and then charge you 2x the price for some otc cream or eardrops that if you Google, you find out is $10 at the pharmacy. Yet they'll tell you it's so expensive because 'other places buy it wholesale' Okay, so you're telling me that a practice with 6 vets working full time doesn't buy enough to charge reasonable rates? Absolutely bollocks, and they try to assert that this is the 'true' cost of health care (the way the American health system does, while charging you $25 for a bandage that costs $1.50), and that's why it's suddenly so expensive. No, you just got greedy, you got bought out by a greedy, money-grubbing American veterinary chain, and now no one can afford to treat their pets. Thanks a bunch for lowering our quality of life.

I live in a place in which vetrerinarians have studied that what the pharma industey wants them to "learn" and instead of helping our dogs, many veterinarians just sell pharma products at the costs of thechealth of our dogs and it is not seldom that a healthy dog with something insignificant like a light cold, then dies of kidney failure right after visiting the vet because of the vet "bombing" him with as many pharmacological stuff as possible.

    My 15 year old dogs got a awful diarrhea and one had to be put to sleep because of blood loss. The other 2 I fed fresh chicken with noodles and fresh GINGER...my granddaughter works for a vet and we agree for trauma medical science is wonderful but for internal conditions there's natural help. Anyway my 2 dogs got well very quickly and lived a few months longer until they died of old age. I adopted a youngster at the shelter and his common kennel cough responded well to warm water with honey and leaving the shower on awhile...it was a cool, dry spring here in Georgia.
    At almost 76 I made my will leaving my pets to my granddaughter...it's important. There are people who promise to care for your pets but the first thing they do is dump them. It has to be someone who loves you and loves animals. Deathbed promises are very sacred.

    My cat was very ill and diagnosed with asthma. When he worsened i took him back. On examination, he had two large tumors. One blocking his airway, the other pressing against his esophagus. They gave him less than two days. I asked for a steroid to shrink the masses so i could get meds and fluids into him. I immediately came to this channel and incorporated every suggestion for cancer. My cat showed improvement within the week. They said it was impossible. After two years, i stopped dosing him and the tumors returned. This time, they were unresponsive to the treatment, and i lost him. I think I'd still have him had i not stopped treatment.
    This is an amazing doctor, and i will be forever grateful for the two extra years i had with my boy. I come to this guy before i go anywhere else.

    Another thing you can use on your pets is honey - the kind you get from your local beekeeper, not the junk in stores. It is great for wound healing. When I was a young nurse, we had a morbidly obese lady whose abdominal wound kept eviscerating (pulling apart for those of you who don't know). We applied honey to the open wound several times a day and it caused new tissue to form. My Maltipoo just had knee surgery and of course, she messed up her incision. So, I used honey on it, put her in one of those newborn onesies, and now it is completely healed. And the good thing is, if they lick it, it doesn't hurt them. You can store honey indefinitely in your cabinet - it doesn't need to be refrigerated. They actually discovered some in some Egyptian tombs that was still good.

I don't even have words to describe the pain an sorrow I've experienced daily for the last year! This man at least eases that a little bit. Appreciate him having a heart to share his knowledge without charging ! It's really very disheartening when you cant even ask a question in an emergency situation to a online veterinarian without being charged.. not to mention the anxiety levels when frantically searching for a simple answer . they lead u to think your going to get it... then BAM! yeah if you have 50$ or whatever they charge!

I took him to a couple different veterinarians And they prescribed him a special diet that I bought from their offices. None of them worked. A year before he passed away a way I started giving him zantac that I had for my stomach I found on the Internet somewhere at the dosage and it actually worked for the 1st time he was not puking. Unfortunately he had heart issues and Got a straddle Thrombus which caused him to drag his back legs meowing in pain, and the vet said he was in much pain so I had to put him down. He made it 12 years but I regret his puking lowering his quality of life when the vets could just have gave him pepcid. Thank you for all you do for us and our companions dr Jones. I'm glad you told the vet assoc. To go p!ss up a rope! You have helped so many because of your bravery and compassion ❤️

      It's surprising how well the tea bag method works. At the stables I used to ride at they had an appaloosa x cob that had a lot of pink skin around his eyes and he notoriously got conjunctivitis in summer.
      Thankfully being british we always had tea bags on hand so it was common place to treat him daily through the summer to keep on top of it.

      @@janephillips3627 I put two teabags in a cup of boiling water and leave to soak until the water has cooled down to room temperature. I then place the teabag over the eye and squeeze it so the tea runs into the eye {try gently pulling eyes open to help it get inside}. I will place the teabag over the eye gently for a few seconds so he doesn't shake it all out immediately. I will do this about three times a day until it has cleared up. Try making a new batch each time and keep it room temperature so its not so aggravating putting it into your animals eye. I have used this on kitten for conjunctivitis and for a reaction my dog had to a weed in our garden that caused his eye to swell shut and go very red.

    I have saved this. Another good wound, rash, hot spots product is Bag Balm. It's antibacterial. It can be used on humans, cats and dogs.
    It's thick and soothing too. I learned of this from my grandmother that used Bag Balm to prevent pressure bed sores on my grandfather who was bedridden after a major stroke. The doctors could not understand why he did not develop major sores! BTW, yup, this is still used on cows udders too! It comes in very small cans good for a first aid kit or larger cans.
    Bach's Flower Remedy: for dogs that are scared of thunder storms or fire works. A few drops in the dog's mouth and it helps calm them down. It is good for humans too for the same reasons and for stress. My old GSD knew where I kept the Bach's and would only lead me to the bathroom where I kept it when he could hear the thunder storm BEFORE I could.
    Calendula gel : soothing for itchy spots and it promotes healthy skin growth on those spots.

We’ve made illness waaaaay too profitable for humans and animals in America so we can expect a lot more illness. It’s a very powerful industry and they are always looking to increase profits. Hence why we see ever more vaccines for humans and pets and also a lot more chronic illness than ever before. I remember the days when everyone wasn’t so damn allergic to absolutely everything.

Before we had a vet in the tropics, I relied on a Swedish registered nurse for tips on dog ER care. I always flushed wounds with clear water and then some iodine. The canestan or equivalent does work for ear infections, as does Benadryl or any antihistamine for itchy skin. Just ensure you know the dosage. When we got our beloved vet (US schooled), he used the same products.

Being a nurse, I asked what the dressing protocol would be and could I do it at home. It consisted of dumping regular white sugar onto the wound, applying a dressing (I used a diaper) and wrapping it (I used vet wrap) to keep the sugar and diaper in place. In six weeks, he was totally healed.

    I don’t know if you answer specific questions but here goes. My 60-70 pound mixed pit had a brief encounter with a neighbors dog that wondered up on our property. Except for a very brief encounter with each other it was mostly noise. We checked both dogs over and did not see any injuries or blood. The next day our dog started limping and would not put her back left leg down for a few minutes. We checked her over looking for breaks or puncture marks nothing. We then gently messaged and stretched the leg, nothing. With our limited knowledge we decided maybe it was just sprained. For a week we would not take her out to play ball and she was NOT happy. Her leg seemed to get better. After a week we finally started exercising her again. She is back to limping. At this point is an expensive X-ray my only option. Thanks so much, a new subscriber..😉

It seemed to happen after he had contact with water ( creeks, lakes etc. So I decided to keep him away from water for a summer season and he still got an infection. Each time I bring him in to vet, it is over a $400.00 bill. They give him a Cleaning, allergy injection, & allergy pills, & antibiotics. You are a Angel to me n my dog. It's people like you that can help with the vet bill, n not making him a angry aggressive dog ( when he is the most loveable, gentle, friendly with people n all animals n a very very happy dog) but he knows why he is that vet office n does not like it at all.

    1. Chlorhexidine topical flush surgical scrub for wounds
    2. Benadryl for itchy skin or hives; 1 milligram per pound of the animal 2-3 X’s per day.
    Example 25 lbs. dog 2 tabs
    3. Chlorotrimezole cream for ear infections example: Malassezia or yeast infections
    Clotrimazole, also for vaginal cream, ringworm, sweat rash, or athlete’s foot cream. To use the product in the ear, tilt the animals head and place a small amount in the ear that is infected, and rub at the base of the ear near the head and message the area.
    4. Hydrocortisone cream also works well in the ear.
    5. Polysporn anti-bacterial ingredients are: bacitracin zinc and polymyxin B sulfate for example styes and pink eyes. Add 1-2 drops in the eye this is a sterile product suitable for eyes.
    6. Pepsin acid production if animal is vomiting. 2.5 milligrams for 10 lbs. of body weight.
    7. Aspirin for pain. Assuming the animal does not have liver or kidney disease. Aspirin is a pain reliever.

I was surprised when the veterinarian suggested Tramadol but it was very effective. Just one capsule a day made a huge difference to him. He was well over fourteen when we had to call it a day he and is much missed. Up until his last couple of years he had been extremely active.

    My dog once got infection on his lip. Went to the vet and he recommend surgery and overnight stays that will cost me about 1500 dollars. I took my dog home as I cannot afford the bill. Went home, gently squeeze the pus out myself as it's already ready to pop. Did it until all the pus is drained. Disinfected the wound with iodine, then I opened one capsule of a broadspectrum antibiotic I have onto the wound. He recovered fully and continue to be a happy dog. I just wish vets stopped charging extraordinary amount of money for pets. This vet can easily offer to do the same as I did with lesser cost, -- and my dog would be able to receive a much safer treatment at a reasonable cost. Thank you Dr. Jonas for the much useful tips. Wish more vets are like you -- care more about the animals than making themselves rich.

      Ear infections are typically caused by allergies, or water getting in the ear & not being able to get out. I work in animal Rescue, & have dealt with a lot of pets coming in with infections. Look for the root cause of the infections. Majority I see have been food related. Try some different limited ingredient diets. Beef, chicken, & grains are the most common allergens. Allergies not only cause infections, but they wreak havoc on your dogs body & will create other diseases. They are also very painful. It's very important to figure out what the root cause is & stop it.

If the ear infections seem to occur season change or every summer its usually pollen but if it's all year round it can be dust at home fragrances from plug ins etc you have to rule everything out

    I have taken my dog to different vets and they dismissed my concerns about allergies. My dog developped a sty on his eye (I put him on better food when I got him). I was told it wasn't bothering him and to leave it. Then the sty grew white bumps that were pressing in his eye. The vet attempted to pop it! I then decided to give him antihistamines (he weighed 110lbs) and the sty drained away completely. But the cause is still present: his eyes run brown stuff like a Persian cat, he has yeaty smelling ways, and what appears to be a permanent head congestion as he sneezes a lot. Sometimes it sounds like he's trying to clear phlegm and gags enough to throw up if he just ate. It seems to be getting worse with age. I'm just tired of him being used as a guinea pig as vets say dog allergies are different from human allergies and it's probably something else. I can't afford to train these guys. Your videos clarified a lot of things. I switched to a higher KCal food and his ways no longer smell. Now I know it's a gut issue.
