Campylobacter

if any body is suffering with this nasy bug i would like to share my experience with you !

two years ago we brought home a new pup he had been fine for the first 10days then he became very ill every thing he ate went straight through him the vet could not give me treatment untill they had lab results back this period seemed endless the poor pup was getting weaker every day
Camplylobacter was the result my vet seems to be dealing with this as a every day problem very common in our town
the only treatment was antibiotics this was fine just great to get something to help the poor pup it was a seven day course he looked better every day
fantastic! but after he came of his medicine 10 days latter it returned
so we started more antibiotics but this time all my animals were treated
as recommened by my vet
but every time my pup had been off the medicine for ten days he was very ill
the only solution was to treat him again more antibiotics

Re: Campylobacter

this continuied for the next 9 months antibiotics on repeat percription seemed to be the only answer with conventional medicine
at my wits end i started to look on line for a answer
i found a report from america
there was a food poising to many people at a firms dinner
the only people not to have become ill were the ones eating garlic bread as a starter
so at this stage any thing was worth a try
i started giving my dogs garlic tabs
im so happy as this was the last time my dog was ill & never used antibiotics since if any one is suffering the same problem give it a try you have nothing to loose please contact me if you get the same results

Re: Campylobacter

since i started to use garlic i have never found a flea either
i breed staffords & the dam was given a small amount through pregnancy
when i wormed the litter at two weeks (normally a messy job ) not a worm to be seen either

Re: Campylobacter

hi
ive been giving my dog garlic for years they even like to fresh stuff, if i cook them some dog beef i always put it in their food when cooking

never had any prob's or found any flea's
good stuff
the older dogs also have cod liver oil the youngers have some once a week does their coat good
the other thing i keep around is arrow root powder thats good for upset stomach's as well.

I have bought garlic tablets from Dorwest Herbs for a few years now. I have never had a problem with fleas either. They are a great company to deal with very helpful if you have a problem with your dog and not sure what to give them.
