Question
My 5 year old Shar-Pei has renal and hepatic Amaloyd, along with thyroid problems.We have been making her food for her for some time now. I'm just concerned that as we prop up or support one thing, that we are not compromising the others. Her food is:
Hamburger, Drained
Boiled eggs without the yokes
Unprocessed BROWN Rice
and a few slices of dried wheat toast,
and that is mixed daily with some cottage cheese and plain yogurt.
She is also on the following meds:
Azodyl for kidneys
SAM-E for Liver
Levothyroxine for Thyroid

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thank you , Steven

Hi Steven - Well, the diet looks ok... not too bad - How about you try the SoJO Holistic food mix into your drained hamburger, egg, brown rice, ( skip the toast), yogurt, ( skip the cottage cheese),
SoJo is balanced home cooking for our pets...I would get the GREEN bag that is Grain free - VERY easy on the Kidneys...
Won't toxify the liver..
Here is the link to SoJo - we get ours right to my door with FREE shipping in the USA.  It is sold at some stores, but I like having it delivered to my door.

Also, I would add the NuVET supplement/ Natural Canine Program to your list of meds... This is like the SAM-E but with many more herbs and nutrients... GREAT for liver detoxification and Kidney health.
NuVET is the Number one Vitamin referred by Holistic VETs all over the World.
Call 1-800-474-7044 and Tell them Pet Nurse Marie sent you - Ask them for the 15% off Discount Program. ( Discount code 81098)
Tell them that Marie wants your Shar-Pei to take 2 NuVET wafers per day ..... ( they also make a powder)
A 90 count bottle is only 55.00 ( And you can get the 15% off)
Here is the link to NuVET
http://www.nuvet.com/81098  ( you can read the TESTINOMIALS ) - many very ill pets have found PUPPY energy and Health on the NuVET program..


Ok - If you want - I can send you a few more recipes you can try - but the SoJO makes it so easy and Balanced...
All you do is add your cooked meats ( lightly cooked) - I would rotate your meats -  2 x a week RED meat ( hamburger) and the other days a white meat such as lamb or chicken???

Keep me posted!
I hope that I have helped..
