Homeopathy for Basenjis?

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Ziggy is still battling sinus/nasal drop and reverse sneezing. I'm thinking of trying a homeopathic treatment for the sinusitis and nasal drip. Has anyone here used homeopathy for their B? What did you use, and how well did it work? Thanks much. :-) ~ Lori ~

    While I have not used one, I know many people that have and they are quite good, main thing is ask for references.. and you can seach on line for one in your area….

  • I have to say–I'm very conservative when it comes to health care (both mine and my dogs....). I would go the regular vet route first. As a matter of fact, when my regualr vet couldn't solve Tyler and Zoey's skin problems, I took them to a dermatologist--he's supposed to be the best in the Bay Area. He actually did a skin biopsy on both of them, and they are finally on the right meds and getting better every day.

    We have some excellent Homopathic Vets in the Bay area… and you will find that most of them are both regular Medical Vets..... but yes, I would always try my regular Vet (but of course mine is quick to suggest a referral if needed) and yes there are some great dermatologist in this area too...

  • Yes–I forgot that there are actually homeopathic vets available. We are so lucky here in the Bay Area--we have great vets, specialists and also UC Davis veterinary school/drs not too far away--and believe me--I have used all of these resources over the past 18 years.....

    Yeah you told me about that before and I'm clueless, but I'll try it if I need to, lol. could be the noise of occasional thump, could be they can hear it even tho we can't. My chow would be drooling buckets before we got a mile away. I just had to keep towels down and take off and bag along the trip. But I took her for a 7 hr trip to atlanta and she threw up and threw up, then stopped. Never threw up again. :( on your back. I had been getting radiofrequency ablations in the US, and they really helped. But doctors here will only do them once or twice. I have had at least 6 on one side, 3 on the other. :( But it's miraculous pain relief when it is done right. Maybe your dog acupuncturists knows of a human one they'd recommend?

    My first girl got carsick. I used Dramamine (Gravol) for her. Luckily she outgrew the problem, because every time I had to pill her the neighbours thought I was killing her. She screamed her head off! (and of course spit out the pill). She did best riding loose in the back seat. That was in the '60s, and we didn't worry about such things…...
