Guest guest Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 Hi Diane! The BEST dog treats are sliced liver either dehydrated in a dehydrator or cooked in a low heat oven until crisp, then broken up into little pieces. All naturale and the dogs go absolutely ga-ga for them (cats too)! I hope your dog is doing better! :-( HTH!

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 Thank you. The problems with liver (and other organ meats), are 1) high in protein, maybe too high for some dogs, 2) since they filter toxins out of the blood, as toxin laden as our environment has become, I'm not sure I trust their safety and 3) the focus of my company is herbs. I'll consider adding them to my line - I want to do some research first. For now, I want to focus on herb related, healing products. Though I am considering adding both peanut butter and molasses cookies <grin>. Our bigger dog seems to be responding to his new medication for arthritis. I'm looking into an herbal biscuit to help him. Our little guy is still at the vet. I understand he doesn't like to be left alone (like that's news?), and barks until someone comes over to pet him. Today is day two out of three. After he's been on the IV for 72 hours they'll retest him to see if the toxins in his blood are back down. If they are, it will then be a wait to see if they go back up, or if the kidneys heal enough to do what they need to. Needless to say, I'm looking into an herbal biscuit for THAT as well. I'm not thinking about what it will mean if the toxins don't come down. Diane GreenFireHerbs.com " Never say 'can't' when there's a 'How About This' still to be tried!

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Diane, I don't have dogs but I did, and I currently have hedgehogs so I am going to add what *I* would suggest for them I'm sure it would work for dogs just as wekk. My critters suffer from dry skin, especially in the winter. I like to actually use a simple oatmeal/milk bath for them with some chamomile flowers in a little sack. Why not something like that for dogs? I like to squeeze it out over their backs during bath times and it really helps to soothe irritated skin, espcially if suffering from mites or something similar.
