Hope''s Collasped Trachea Cough Better!


Thanks to Kim from Milledgeville, GA...for sharing Hope's story. ...Kim has been managing Hopes cough with vairous formulas..Mainly our phlegm heat formula ...

Kim understands that chronic coughing is to be managed..and that although Hope has a western diagnosis of "collapsed trachea", its the internal phlegm that must be controlled to minimize the coughig.



My name is Hope and I love PawHealer! I have a collapsed trachea and my Chinese herbs and cough syrup my mom buys helps control my coughing and wheezing. You can describe me with three F's: I'm fourteen years young, weigh five pounds and I'm feisty! You should see me chase the weed-eater....and I loooove to bark! Thanks Pawhealer for keeping me healthy!

Hind Leg Weakness Help For Lucy





Thanks to Elizabeth for providing the photo and sharing her experience while using one of PawHealer's hind leg weakness formulas..Here's what they say:


Lucy, is our 4 year old Schipperke, that was showing signs of extreme hind leg weakness and very listless, which is most unusual for a young Schip. We have seen so much improvement since we have been giving her the Hind Leg Weakness formula. We have had her to our Vet several times without a lot of relief. I searched the Web and found PawHealer.Com and entered Lucy's symptoms and ordered what they recommended. She does much better now, can get up and down on her own and walks with much more ease. We are so thankful that she is doing so much better.

Lucy uses Hind-Leg Weakness for Phlegm Heat Brewing...

Generally I find that this formula tends to work dogs that are perhaps overweight..these are canines that have lots of damp/phlegm accumulation...in TCM, the thinking is that the channels are blocked due phlegm stasis...

Hind-Leg weakness formulas work great for dogs..this happens to many dogs as they age. At this time, it is the most important time, in which to supplement the dog with herbs. And they are so effective!

Unhappy Collapsed Trachea Customer...PawHealer Response




This is a post that was made by a Facebook user. I appreciate her feed back..however, I believe that people should have a broader view of both herbal and western medicine. If only serious diseases could have 100% cures, think about all the sick people and pets who would be better. The realities of life is that once disease exists, and of a serious nature, we can only hope to manage the diseases. Honestly, herbs and western medicine can do this. But every person and every dog is different. What also matters, are enviornmental factors such as diet, exercise, toxins. There is no magic bullet...but to say that herbal medicine does not work, is not right. Why do people have unrealistic expectations of herbs that they do not impose on western medications...sigh...as an herbalist, I can only shake my head...and be thankful of all the people that post and tell me that I have helped their dog..

Marlene C.....Her Facebook post
I just want all of out their to know that I was NOT happy with the herbs i got and wasted money on for little pom who suffers from a collapsed trachea, as they did NOT WORK so don't waste your money on the herbs for that condition, i even talked to the vet and i said the herbs are not working and she said they usually don't work on a collapsed trachea yet they sell this Empirical Lung support Phlegm Heat for it stating it helps this condition. Don't waste your money !!!!!!!!!!!! Surgery is the only thing that helps this condition ! They must write their own reviews for this product !!!!



Hi Marlene...first of all, herbs are herbs....i freely admit as an acupunturist for people and an herbalist for pets...that herbal remedies do not work 100% of the time...neither does westeern medications. I looked up your order, and I see that you did not fill out a pattern survey...we have formulas for all types of cough...things can effect the choice of formulas...such as problems with the heart...is it a phlegm-heat or a phlegm damp cough...what is your dog eating? In other words, the Phlegm Heat formula may not be the right one for your pom. I am sad that you feel that herbs have no place in healing, when in fact, that's just not the case. Many dogs with collapsed trachea have found a tremendous relief..I wish that we had remedies that could cure disease 100 percent...but that does not exist in life for pets or people. Vets are not licensed for herbal medicine, they hardly know what it is. I would also like to add that I have many dogs who have been on vet medicines and have no results at all either...Disease is tough, we have to manage the diseases with everything in a toolbox. This includes western meds and herbals...if you would like to try another formula based on a survey, I would be happy to work something out. Regards..Holly Mead (licensed acupuncturst/clinical herblist)

 PS....we don not write our testomionals....nor do we fake all the photos that are put up. That's quite mean to say...also....here is what we write in our FAQ...Do Herbs Work? As a company who sells herbals we always get a little frustrated with this question. Of course they are effective, HOWEVER we can never be 100% sure of the results since every cat, dog and person is different and the degree of disease progression does impact the outcome. But without a doubt Chinese herbs have shown to be very beneficial for our pets.

NOT ALL MEDICINES WORK!...

For some reason we have lost our ability to be rational with respect to herbal remedies. As a company we wouldn't offer herbs that can't help, however it would be foolish to claim that they work 100% of the time, that's not logical right?

We can say that they really do help support a dogs health naturally. We could not stay in business if we did not have happy customers.

Lucy Pain Free!




Thanks to Gayle from Kenosha WI., who reported to us how Lucy is doing:
"I am a 2 year old weimaraner and tore my acl in my back leg. After taking Empirical Herbal analgesic I can now be pain free. The best part is it works immediately and mixed with a little ice cream it's like a little bit of heaven..Thanks PawHealer and thanks Mom and Dad."


Gaye bought a couple of formulas, and found that herbs that helped to "move the blood" worked best to relieve Lucy's pain. We are grateful that Gayle has shared Lucy's story.

Gayle bough the formula Emperical Herbal Analgic PR

Questions About Heartworm Herbs and a Wolf!


Hello Everyone...

I recieved these questions from a customer and they are great questions. One of the questions was about using our herbal formula for Heartworm for prevention ...and the answer in this particular case is NO NEED TO USE IT...San Diego does not have Heartworm! 

I want to thank Tracy for her great questions, and I hope my answers can help other people as well.

Thanks Tracy, Dutchess and Ta-Tay!

Hi Holly, the person I spoke to regarding the order below was also going to have the herbalist call me and maybe that’s you.  I see in the order confirm that specific questions should be directed to you so here I go.  If you’re not the appropriate person, please forward this email accordingly.

1)      Once I receive the Heartworm Support, I will start treating my high content wolfdog for occult heartworm infection.  We haven’t had her long and she came from mosquito/heartworm territory.  She’s an exotic animal mostly wolf in the 90% range so I’m wondering if the suggested dosage is the same for her.  Her weight is 85 lbs and she’s 8 years old.  She has a higher tolerance to remedies and doesn’t always respond.  Rescue Remedy and other herbal and natural products have been somewhat ineffective.

Dosage...I would expect the same...the dosage is based on weight for both dogs and humans..

Since she has no Microfilaremia or baby/offspring heartworm present in her blood, what should be the initial dosage of Heartworm Support … the higher suggested dosage outlined below in the order confirm or the lower dosage described on the bottle?  If the higher dosage, then given for how long because she already tests negative on the microfilaria test.

I would think the lower dosage since there are not any symptoms...Give it to her 5 days on and take two days off a week.



She has no signs or symptoms so I plan to treat her for the shorter 16 week duration and hope for a negative re-test at that point, otherwise I’ll continue treatment for the longer 24-36 weeks.  Since she has a higher tolerance to natural remedies, she may need to be treated for a longer period, but obviously, I hope for full effectiveness and that she responds immediately.

The thing is...that she needs to be tested after 6 months. Because even if the adults are dead...they may be in the heart decaying. This results in the DNA stil present. Thus, they can be dead and you get a positive...

2)      Is it safe to give her the Heartworm Support with your other products such as the Magic Flea Herb?  How about other natural supplements like Apple Cider Vinegar, garlic, Omega Oils, Glucosamine Chondroitin, MSM.  She did need a Parvo & Distemper vaccination last week and a chemical topical flea & tick application that I do not plan on doing again.  Is it okay to start the Heartworm Support with the vaccines and chemical in her system or do I need to wait a period of time before starting treatment?

Yes you can start right away. I like the idea of using Garlic, it is traditonal remedy used world wide to fight against parasites...Also, I would be really careful how much stuff you put into that sweet wolf..all that crap adds up and ruins the immune system. Try to stay as natural as possilbe, and work on stregthening her immune system. 

3)  I want to make sure I understand the usage/dosage for heartworm prevention as ongoing maintenance.  Is the dosage the same as for treatment based on weight but 7 days on 7 days off and repeat during a month and continuous throughout the year?  I live in San Diego (Encinitas) so do you think she needs prevention year round?

We are neighbors!!! You don't need any prevention, we don't have heartworm!!!! There are many articles written about this...I have 4 dogs and live in Escondido, they have never seen a flea, tick or heartorm poison! 

4)      Lastly, what’s the taste of the Heartworm Support?  Is it bitter?  I’m just trying to get an idea of whether she’ll eat it in her food or not.



The over all flavor is sour...so dogs will take it in the food, some won't...


I think that’s it … sorry for overload!  Thank you for your expertise.  Attached are some pics of my wolf, Duchess … and her Malamute/Arctic Wolf sister, Ta-tay.

Thanks again!
Tracy

Thanks from Lucy and Gunner...Anxiety and Bladder Stones


Thanks for Cindy from Temecula CA....her dogs are 15 years young, and she is using Chinese herbs to help with the aging process of these two beaustiful dogs...Next time Cindy comes to PawHealer.com...I am going to make her custom formulas free of charge...We need to tonify Yang for both of these beauties...

Cindy has used Urninary Free the Flow for bladder stones and Calm the Spirit for the anxiety...

"My two older Australian Shepherds - Lucy and Gunner are both going to be 15 in August and September of 2013. They both are very healthy geriatric dogs! Lucy has had issues with body heat which has caused pooling in her bladder, the Chinese herbs Bladder Support and the Immu G.O and Rena G.O have helped her immensely! She is not licking as much and is much more comfortable. Gunner has had perfect health and then started getting a little bit of anxiety where he has been whining and licking everything and just seems "out of it." I started him on the Calm the spirit formula and he is much more relaxed now and seems to be back to his normal self. I am glad that I found Paw Healer as they are helping my older dogs age with ease."
