Re: Re: My dog is making me sick

Ella,

my boyfriend just left to return the shampoo. Anyway, my dog is a

big furry thing (Bernese Mountain Dog) and I'm afraid that the

fragrance would stick to his thick coat and then he'd have to be

washed again. The poor dog is washed more than any dog should have

to be because of my sensitivities. But thank you for the reply. Anne

Barb,

thanks for replying. The strange thing is that I've been giving him

a good probiotic, both human and dog brands, the whole time he was on

the antibiotics. I still am. I'm now giving him VSL. I can't put

the probiotic in his main meals because that's when he gets the

antibiotic but I give it to him in an apple an hour before his

meals. I think you are right about lowering his dose of

fluconazole. I'll halve it tonite. The funny thing is that he will

eat certain things but not others. I've been cooking for him for

years. He gets cooked organic buffalo with all grease removed, plus

cooked apple, organic pumpkin (for fiber) and a good dry food (he

usually loves it but this is the one thing he now refuses). I'm not

worried about his weight; he could stand to lose a few pounds. I'm

only worried about his liver. tomorrow we will be checking his

liver values. Thanks again. Anne
