Article mentioning Dr. Dodds

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Here is an article on DNA and Diet from Dog Fancy-Natural Dog. NutriScan and Dr. Dodds are mentioned in the article. NutriScan is a genetics-based test that measures IgA and IgM antibodies in saliva, which are produced by the body in reaction to long- term intolerance of certain foods.

    I'm just reading it now, but thought I would get the link up for you guys to check out.

  • I ordered a test kit for Nemo since he was having what looked like a bad case of inflammatory bowel disease. I had suspicions of some food intolerances and I was going to trial this test to see if it came back with results which were consistent with what I observed. For instance he has always had issues with chicken so I was curious if it would indicate an intolerance. Unfortunately the full panel wasn't available until February and I got the test kit at a point where he was too ill for the test to be of any real use, so I never used it. So, I will be curious to see if it is worth the expense in the future. As much of a pain as food issues are, it would be worth the money for me if it actually works.

    @TwinDogsDifferentMothers: Our opinion is, you own your dog, you know if they are struggling under the conditions and exercise load that you work them at. If that is the case then you should take whatever steps are necessary to keep your dog healthy. There is nothing wrong with buying some extra equipment to be on the safe side no matter what anyone else says. Absolutely agree with you. And some dogs will need it more than others.

    @Kris_Christine: Dr. Dodds is in California, I live in Maine. Despite having had Lyme myself twice, I do not vaccinate my dogs against it. None of them has ever contracted the disease or tested positive even though they get hundreds of deer tick bites every year. Under a separate thread, I'll post some information on Lyme. Great…thanks for that!
