Guest guest Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Put it in a drizzle bottle. I don't know what they are properly called, but they are like the ketchup and mustard squirt bottles at diners. Agave Nectar comes in these. If you don't have one handy at the moment and you have a medicine dropper, use that. ________________________________ To: DimethylSulfoxide-DMSO Sent: Sun, July 10, 2011 11:49:07 AM Subject: Need help with dog My 5 year old corgi/terrier dog is haveing major back problems and even though the vet gave him prednisone and some pain pills he is still in a great amount of pain. I have a 25-30% mix of DMSO and have been putting it on his back with a cotton pad but his fur is thick and I don't know if he is geting enough.It seems to help a bit but I am hoping someone can suggest what I can do to help him. I feel so useless and he is whinning in pain. The vet says just to keep him still for the weekend and not to change his medication. Can anyone help me and him? thanks Mae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really helped--now he is using it for himself...Boswellia may also help. For the quick fix the DMSO topically I think would be best...

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 There is a vet in Forestville, Sebastopol area of Northern California who does acupuncture on animals. He has inserted small magnetic balls in joint area of older dog, who then was able to experience no more pain. I heard this testimonial from owner of dog. I am trying to find the vet's name, if you are interested.~ Carol Subject: Need help with dog To: DimethylSulfoxide-DMSO Date: Sunday, July 10, 2011, 8:49 AM  My 5 year old corgi/terrier dog is haveing major back problems and even though the vet gave him prednisone and some pain pills he is still in a great amount of pain.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 MSM is fairly bitter so it might take a bit of something tasty to mix it with. Start out a 1 teaspoon or less for a 50lb dog and work up to 4 teaspoons a day over a period of time. It is an excellent anti-inflammatory and is thought to work synergistically with DMSO. There are many anti-inflammatories that might help. Glucosamine chondroiton helps, and is in some high end dog foods. Try an archive search for recent discussions. When my own hips hurt from inflammation I put peppermint oil and then DMSO to get a nice warm effect that the DMSO or peppermint oil alone just don't give me. My old dog used to come and ask me to put the DMSO on her hips! She loved the immediate warmth from the 10 CC of DMSO. Garnet > > > In a message dated 7/10/2011 11:49:19 A.M.
