Looking for Vet in Spokane

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • I know there are several members here who live in Washington State, but I believe all of you live over on the western side of the state. However, I was wondering if anyone knew of a Basenji-savy vet in the Spokane area, or even a Basenji owner who I could contact to find out who they use.

    I'd love to find a wholistic vet, but an Internet search turned up only one…way out in Valleyford, which is a pretty good drive from our place (we're in the far western Spokane metropolitan area, fairly close to Airway Heights for those of you who may be familiar with the area). They do advertise house calls, so I'll probably call them when we return to find out how far they'll drive for a house call and how much they charge ($$ I'm sure).

    Sorry to hear that Oakley went though this, but I have to say thanks for posting about this. I use Xylitol for my own baking/sweetening while I'm dieting… looks like I'll only keep the Stevia in the house... in the highest cupboad!

    Cara had coccidia when we got her, but I have read research that it is killed more easily with ammonia than bleach so that's what I used–- pick up, pour ammonia over area. Neither Connor nor Arwen got it. But since you weren't doing it before, do take in stool samples of the other dogs to avoid them continuing to pass it around. A dog can have it with limited effect and still be passing it in stools to recontaminate your pup. http://www.sheltermedicine.vet.cornell.edu//shelter/coccidia.htm

    A great thing about where you live in MA is that if there was something your regular vet couldn't handle, you have both Tufts and Angell Memorial within a reasonable driving distance.

    You might want to watch her carefully in regard to her food, treats, and whatever she eats when you're not looking. Then change one by one to see if the diarrhea is indeed because of the particular brand of food.
