[Raw Food] dog health

 

 

Hello everyone, I wanted to share with the group what is going on in the

rest of my life at the moment. Some of you will know that I have four dogs

and they mean so much to me - I started to feed them raw shortly after Nick

and I went raw in March and they are now established on rawfoods and like it

a lot.

 

My old dog - 16 year old Sammy has a cyst or small tumour on his head - this

thing looked really nasty and I got worried. He has had it for 6 weeks and

it was raw looking and some head shaking going on too.

 

I spoke to Elchanan and he gave me guidance I am so glad to say, because

really with an old dog like this anaesthetic and everything that goes with

it is not a good idea - also I did not want to intervene - I wanted to let

his body deal with this in the natural way if possible, because a vet would

be doing surgery and wanting to use antibiotics which these days I feel

there is no use for in my life and my animals - we have had enough poisons.

 

This feels quite scary for me - I can trust my own body and know that inside

me is the idea of wellness and all I have to do is give it the right

nutrients and conditions and then let it work and yet allowing this process

to happen for my dog is still scaring me to bits - crazy isn't it!

 

With invaluable advice from Elchanan I decided to try a short fast once a

week to see if his body could be given chance to mend and the first one was

for 48hrs on Monday and the results so far have been amazing - the cyst has

opened and it has gone down a lot - smells terrible though! - but it is

funny - the smell used to be on Sammy's breath - now his breath is quite

sweet but the smell has moved to this cyst, so all the poison that was

inside him is coming out of this thing.

 

After the mini-fast Sammy actually played a little bit - he hasn't " played "

with a toy for a good while, hopefully now he is on the mend. I couldn't

believe it this morning when I saw how much the tumour had gone down. I saw

the evidence of the fast - just 24 hrs in the dog and the difference that it

made.

 

I have made decisions about my 4 dogs - they have all been vaccinated every

year poor things and I have been reading a lot and learning about these

poisonous things we do to ourselves and our animals. I have had a flu jab

every year for a few years too - because my breathing was bad so I am in the

same boat practically as well - so hopefully these things will get out of

our bodies - certainly giving it all a good shot. (excuse the pun!!)

 

I dont feel out of the woods with this completely yet - it is still a bit

scary as I think the world of this old chap - but far better this way than

putting more toxins in and diverting his body and mine from the healing we

both need.

 

I am so pleased I have the support in this group - I couldn't have coped

with this on my own and I am so grateful to Elchanan.

Love to all

Lynne

I too started thinking about the food I was feeding my dog. She's a little

6 yr old, 7# poodle that was given to us about five months ago. She's one

of those lovable ones that has to be in your lap or near you constantly.

Problem with her was her " horrible " breath. She cleans herself like a cat,

so giving her a bath only lasts a few hours. I took her to the vet and had

her teeth cleaned. Her breath smelled good for a couple of days, and then

that foul smell was back. Then I got to reading about raw feeding for dogs

and thought why not. She's been raw for just over a month now and my what

an improvement. All that grain that they put in kibble must ferment

terribly as dogs have no enzymes to digest starch. So now she's my little

" raw buddy " . We keep each other accountable every day. Yes it's true just

as our body odors and eliminations cease to smell, so do the dogs when fed

their natural specie appropriate diets. God must have planned it that way

to keep the earth a sweeter smelling place. :-)

Love,

Sharon
