QuestionHi my dog is a 12 1/2 year old lab..he has recently been diagnoses with congestive heart failure and is now taking several medications for his cough and overall well being..i also give him coQ10 100 mg once daily..can you recommend any homeopathic treatment to give him along with the meds hes on or better yet to hopefully rule out the other meds altogether..i use homeopathy on my whole family and prefer that form of treatment..thanks for any info you have to offer
Answerreferrals to : Omega 3 oil, NuVET Plus Supplement , Salmon oil /pure
Hi Melissa, your lab boy needs the Lasix or water pill from the vet. Dogs with CHF need fluid pills every day - No real alternative med for the water pill. ( not in a serious case like yours)
I would give this boy to start on a good Vitamin / Immune system supplement and also some Omega 3 or Salmon oil / Must be pure salmon oil...
Here is a link to Nature's Sunshine Omega 3 - good for the heart and general health of your lab...
Give one Omega 3 per day - Long term usage: Nature's Sunshine is a wonderful product - we have had great luck with it's quality!

Next, I refer almost All my clients to the NuVET Immune system supplement and vitamin.
This is very safe for your your baby:
here is info on NuVET;
I would give this kid 2 per day - most dogs only need 1 per day - Your boy can benefit with 2 per day long term.
the cost is 39.99 for a 60 count .....
*********55.00 for a 90 count bottle...
I would get a 90 count every 45 days : Give my name and code 81098 / ask for the 15% off on auto ships/
