Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • I give all my dogs vitamins, and the Pet-tabs are found to have trace amounts of lead in them, so I have switched to Nupro (thanks for all the info Lorraine), which for me with Apache is a bonus as it comes in powder form. Rather then trying to force them down his throat, I now sprinkle it on his food.:D

    After reading Jazzy's Mom's letter from Dr. Gonto I have also gotten a Brita filter pitcher and now give the dogs that water.

  • Stormie is loving his Nupro, too! I make his into a gravy and give it to him as a treat for taking all his meds! He doesn't even know it's supposed to be good for him! ;) Glad it's working for you, too Lynn!

    @Rebel - Full blood workup including full Thyroid panel (full panel no just what the normal vet workup that is not a full thyroid panel)... as they say make sure that he is in good health. Also what are you feeding him? How much total are you feeding a day? Also with reducing food, add veggies to his food to fill his belly... green beans are good to use... I use Cauliflower and Broccoli... Note also that low normal is typically too low for Basenjis.

    I can't use the fish oil for my B since he is allergic to fish but I started using olive oil in his food (no nutitional value really) any other suggestions?
