Thoughts for Maze please?

Maybe she is getting pickier about the food she wants to eat and liked what was on your plate more than whats in her bowl..  Tee Hee.  Just kidding.  Of course...good thoughts for your Maze.  What treatment is she on?

ETA: Forgot about the chammomile tea she gets every night with her dinner to settle her tummy... Lol

 Poor Maze; sending lots of healing vibes. Was she losing weight and having other problems before she was put on this detox program? If so, a full chemistry panel may be a good idea. Do you know how many calories are in the diet you're feeding her? Cooked food usually has fewer calories per cup than commercial dog food. How much fat is she getting? Not getting enough fat may explain the food stealing (she feels hungry). The scratching can be from needing omega 3 fatty acids, or simply not getting a balanced diet. The skin needs vitamin A, B vitamins, zinc, and other nutrients to be healthy. About the chamomile tea; if Maze is allergic to ragweed, the tea can make her itch. It's called a cross reaction, and chamomile is in the ragweed family. Is the person who is treating Maze a veterinarian? The sulfur treatment concerns me, but it may be okay.

Good thoughts for Maze and you. I wondered about the calorie content of homecooked, too. I hope you're able to figure it all out quickly.

Sulphur?  homeopathic sulphur or biological sulphur or ???

Oregon grape -- as in grapeseed?  It boosts the immune system in people, but typically not something I'd give a dog (raisins, grapes -- it's the seeds that cause the problem with the kidneys)

Good thots? Absolutely!!  Holler if you need help ok?

Callie, Lemme look up the organ grape, I still have some in the fridge and I'll get back to you on it. Maze also has had chamomile tea in the past with no adverse reaction. She loves it. Lol

Everything Maze has been getting is special measured out to her specifics with the exception of the cod oil and alfalfa tabs since those are store bought.

Sulphur?  homeopathic sulphur

That's it! I couldn't remember how to spell homeopathic. LOL

The hair loss and scratching is a constant that the vets couldn't figure out, which is why I sought Bailey out. She also practices on people and is co-owner of a Chinese acupuncture, massage and herbal clinic.

   I hope she can help Maze; keep us posted.

 Good luck, Kitty & Maze.

homeopathic sulphur is a SUPER common skin remedy.  And yep, I bet Gina's right -- Oregon grape *is* used as an anti-inflammatory.  Man, I learn something new every day!!

Probably using the chamomile for it's anti-inflammatory properties as well as it's tummy-settling properties.  I'm allergic as sin to ragweed but chamomile doesn't bother me at all.  But David, who is Mr. Healthy can't tolerate chamomile -- he gets a mega weird allergic reaction to it -- it actually makes him feel all prickly and light-headed. 

Sounds like some good stuff she's doing.  But will urely keep her in my good thots and prayers!!

Bailey has also ordered some Chinese pills that she uses all the time, for Maze. No idea of the name right now but as soon as I remember, I'll let you know.

 That's good news. I hope she keeps getting better. Give that sweet girl some lovin' for me.
