1
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 1: This is pet Life Radio. Let's talk pets in the morning.

2
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,480
The morning. We are live live here on Instagram and

3
00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:29,160
on Cutlife Radio. Here here for your pets. You know

4
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,159
the drill here for the next thirty minutes. Ask away

5
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,240
anything you want to talk about, you can try it.

6
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,359
Don't make me talk too much because as you can hear,

7
00:00:36,679 --> 00:00:39,719
the voice is gone. I'm trying to stop it from hearing.

8
00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:42,439
To the point. Remember this. Years ago, I was doing

9
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,240
a piece on Kiss FM with Ryan Seacrest and of course,

10
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,200
of all the days I had zero voice. And it

11
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,719
was so funny because he asked me a couple times

12
00:00:52,759 --> 00:00:54,880
he said, Jeff, join it, like we do this, we

13
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,840
can do this. Another time I said, no, it's okay.

14
00:00:58,079 --> 00:01:00,840
So anyway, so here to get hold of me. If

15
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,759
you're here on Instagram live, you're here, ask away here

16
00:01:03,799 --> 00:01:06,439
on pet Life Radio. Likewise, you're gonna just ask away.

17
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,079
You can call eight seven seven three eight five eight

18
00:01:09,159 --> 00:01:12,159
eight a two once again eight seven seven three eight

19
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,519
five eight eight eight two and just go ahead and

20
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:17,239
ask away, and the calls will be sent to me.

21
00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:21,400
So waving waving, a question coming in already. So let's

22
00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:25,719
let's check that alone. And it is, what is your

23
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,879
take on set for cancer patients? Well, this is I

24
00:01:29,879 --> 00:01:32,280
don't know. I've never used it. You know, there are

25
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,920
a lot of natural remedies I have found, and again

26
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,079
I don't want to make a blanket statement because I

27
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:40,359
know that it'll bite me in the behind if there

28
00:01:40,439 --> 00:01:44,439
was one sort of herbal alternative treatment that actually works.

29
00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:50,079
But from my experience, most of these natural, non drug

30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,840
remedies do not work. I have good friends that are

31
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:56,239
homeopathic vets. They will do a lot of things and

32
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,719
they tell me that there are success stories. I personally

33
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:03,400
in my practice when people have tried it did not work.

34
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,319
I always appreciate the natural paths that also say when

35
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,639
it comes to certain diseases, yeah, you want to get

36
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,639
a little more aggressive, you can do some western medicine

37
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,919
as well. But I'm not saying don't do it, and

38
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,159
I'm not saying don't do it as an addendum as

39
00:02:20,159 --> 00:02:23,479
not necessarily a pure alternative. But if you want to

40
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,879
do something to promote the effect of whatever else you're using,

41
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,360
I would say go for it. I will tell you

42
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,000
one thing that none of these natural remedies are toxic,

43
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,319
so there's no downside. So if your research that you

44
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,240
saw says that, yes, it's helpful, and you want to

45
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,759
try it. By all means, try it and let me know.

46
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,199
Let me know what. I treat one of my dog's

47
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,159
cancers with just these natural remedies and nothing else personally know.

48
00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:56,319
But it's just me. I'm not saying don't do it.

49
00:02:56,719 --> 00:02:59,919
If there's enough scientific I look for the scientific data,

50
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:05,000
peer reviewed articles. Now, look, let's talk about acupuncture. Forty

51
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,240
years ago was a joke in very medicine, and now

52
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,080
it's accepted by almost everybody. We recommend it all the time.

53
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,919
So I'm not saying these things aren't helpful. I'm not

54
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,280
saying they don't have value. But on something like that,

55
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,120
I just don't know enough about it to recommend it.

56
00:03:22,599 --> 00:03:25,199
But I will tell you most likely it's not gonna hurt.

57
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,400
So I hope that helps a little bit if you

58
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,960
have data, I mean really scientific data. Said it my way. Okay,

59
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,919
can you talk a little bit about the bully that

60
00:03:34,039 --> 00:03:36,639
got stuck in the dogs soroad? So those things are

61
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,599
so yeah. I had a case actually, neighbor down the

62
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:43,680
street and it ate a bully stick and towed off

63
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,319
a hunk and it lodged in the esophagus. We couldn't

64
00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:51,199
get it up. When we induced vomiting, nothing helped. Finally

65
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:53,439
we had to send them to an emergency facility that

66
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,599
had a scope. They tried, interestingly, which is what we

67
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,479
often do, try to push it into the stomach because

68
00:03:59,479 --> 00:04:03,520
it's hard to get the grabbers around the stick or

69
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,800
whatever it is foreign body without damaging the esophagus. But

70
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,960
they could not push it. They felt it was going

71
00:04:10,039 --> 00:04:12,960
to tear the esophagus, so they did They slowly put

72
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,280
the grabbers around it, and they were able to get

73
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,279
it out. The dog is one hundred percent. I am

74
00:04:18,319 --> 00:04:21,800
not a fan of those things because of that, I've

75
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,480
heard too many horror stories. So for me, a lot

76
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,720
of times it's people's fault because they might use the

77
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:32,079
wrong size that's appropriate for the dog. But this one,

78
00:04:32,879 --> 00:04:35,079
it was a big one. The dog actually ended up

79
00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:39,560
chewing off a hunk and that's the hunk that got stuck.

80
00:04:39,879 --> 00:04:41,720
So you know, it turned out to be a very

81
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:45,920
expensive bully stick. I would recommend to stay away from

82
00:04:45,959 --> 00:04:48,600
these things. If you have dogs that have been using

83
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:52,160
them for years, had never had a problem, and they're chewing, well,

84
00:04:52,199 --> 00:04:54,720
they know what they're doing. It's okay, But as a

85
00:04:54,759 --> 00:04:57,519
blanket rule, if I were to, if someone would ask me,

86
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,160
what do you think of bully sticks? I know too

87
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,839
many stories like this one. I'm not so sure so

88
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,519
and I hope that helps vasectomy versus neuter. Okay, here's

89
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:15,519
the thing. There are two goals here of neutering, all right,

90
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,680
and typically it's not just preventing breeding. If the only goal,

91
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,120
the only goal was to prevent breeding, then of a sectomy

92
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,759
could be okay. But there's more to neutering, and the

93
00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:35,240
more benefits from behavior, from eliminating a testosterone impulse that

94
00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:41,319
we neuter, not just for population control. So then again,

95
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,079
why if you have a dog that's a real good

96
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,560
breeding dog and he is worth a lot of money

97
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,959
every time he's used as a stud, then you wouldn't

98
00:05:50,959 --> 00:05:54,600
want two of a sectary anyway. So if you're going

99
00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:57,000
to stop him from breeding, why don't you just do

100
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,959
the whole thing? And you know you have other problems,

101
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,279
prostate issues, behavior issues.

102
00:06:02,439 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 2: You know.

103
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,879
Speaker 1: This is a statistic I always like to share, and

104
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:10,160
that is again, if we make some assumptions about how

105
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:12,600
many dogs are spade and uter, well, first of all,

106
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,879
I'll simple one, what percent are male versus female. That's

107
00:06:15,879 --> 00:06:18,600
it fifty to fifty. Come on, fifty to fifty. Now,

108
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:23,639
let's say only fifty percent were spadernuter. So in any

109
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,680
one given quarter that was of a non neutered male,

110
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,720
we twenty five percent. Okay, So if I would tell

111
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:38,519
you statistically a dog found dead on a US roller highway,

112
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,839
you two. Well, first, I'm half week we fe male

113
00:06:40,879 --> 00:06:43,920
and half female, okay, and then half of each will

114
00:06:43,959 --> 00:06:47,920
be spade onuter. So a non spade female twenty five percent,

115
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,439
spade female twenty five percent, a non neutered male twenty

116
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,120
five percent, and a neutered male twenty five percent. Well,

117
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,560
guess what the statistic is that seventy five percent of

118
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,160
dogs that are found dead on US roads and highways

119
00:07:02,399 --> 00:07:06,360
are non neoded males. There's a lot more to it

120
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,639
than just miseectomy, because if this dog kind of a

121
00:07:08,759 --> 00:07:11,399
sected me, he may not breed with all those dogs

122
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,959
he's trying to get to. But that'll be really a waste.

123
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,439
If you picked up the scent because he's a male,

124
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,560
if he's got tystosterone, you know they pick it up, okay,

125
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,240
when female is in heat and after all that jumping

126
00:07:24,279 --> 00:07:27,920
around out of a fence, going down major thoroughfares and

127
00:07:28,279 --> 00:07:31,360
finally gets the female. At least you can breed. But

128
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,759
if he said sectimize, he's going to go to all

129
00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:35,839
that work. You can't read anyway. Why have them with

130
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,199
the risk of all those potential dangers of him running around?

131
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,480
So my recommendation is to fix all right, preddice oone.

132
00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:49,199
So for pregdice ozone, I like alternate day for a dog.

133
00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:51,639
I assume you want to get as fast as you

134
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,839
can to an alternate day schedule. So if you do

135
00:07:54,879 --> 00:07:57,959
it too much every day, then you're going to suppress

136
00:07:58,319 --> 00:08:01,160
the adrenals and you can act actually end up with

137
00:08:01,279 --> 00:08:04,199
a problem called Addison's disease, which is the opposite of

138
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,959
cushions disease. Cushian's disease is an over secretion of the

139
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,199
adrenal glands. Addison's is where they stop working under secretion. Well,

140
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,800
if you keep giving steroid on a regular basis daily,

141
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,759
the possibility is that you will suppress the adrenal glands

142
00:08:19,879 --> 00:08:22,800
enough that they won't be able to work anymore. So

143
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,439
I would say first of all, to understand they're two

144
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,959
dose ranges. You have an anti inflammatory dose and you

145
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,440
have imino suppressive dose. Imuno suppressive dose is a much

146
00:08:32,519 --> 00:08:36,120
higher dose. It's usually two to three times higher. So

147
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,039
then the anti inflammatory dose for me anti inflammatory dose

148
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,279
is about a quarter milligram per pound twenty pound dog

149
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,200
five miligrams and I do it twice a day for

150
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,360
a few days. Then I go to once a day

151
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:50,960
for a few days, and then every other day, and

152
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,679
then if you want, if the dog is doing well

153
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,840
and you want to give it, try every third day,

154
00:08:55,159 --> 00:08:57,919
then that's good. But the goal is to get them

155
00:08:57,919 --> 00:09:02,440
off of every day fairly quickly. I hope that helps well.

156
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,840
Prentnice alone is for usual we use for cats. Pregnice

157
00:09:06,919 --> 00:09:10,399
own you can use for dogs, and predicelan can be

158
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,559
for dogs as well, but it's the same thing. They're

159
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,720
metabolizing a bit differently. But prendice alone is converted to presdicezone,

160
00:09:18,879 --> 00:09:21,840
but for cats they need the Prentice alone to be effective.

161
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,639
What age should you start dental cleaning at the vet?

162
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,559
And once you hear more great question. So if there

163
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,879
was a blanket statement and I hate those, as you know,

164
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,360
I would say starting at the age of three. Seventy

165
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,360
five percent of dogs and cats over the age of

166
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,200
three start having periodontal conditions disease, So I would say

167
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,360
then three. But I've had dogs coming in that are

168
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:49,879
five and six and don't have a speck of tartar,

169
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:53,120
and their goals look great. It's still individual. I also

170
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:57,600
had dogs that are two and already have tartar building up.

171
00:09:57,639 --> 00:10:00,000
So I always joke the dog get to read the book.

172
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:02,320
He doesn't know what's supposed to happen, and it is

173
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,960
what it is. So I would tell you, starting at

174
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,360
the age of three, in the general rule would be

175
00:10:08,799 --> 00:10:12,519
dogs already started having calculus tartar, so they would need

176
00:10:12,519 --> 00:10:15,840
a teeth cleaning. Now, look, if you brush your dog's

177
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:18,919
teeth on a regular basis once a year, is probably

178
00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:22,720
gonna be fine. Unfortunately, most of you, and I know

179
00:10:22,759 --> 00:10:25,519
who you are, are not brushing your petch teeth regularly.

180
00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:28,919
So I've had dogs coming in every six months, And

181
00:10:29,039 --> 00:10:31,720
I love the client that looks at me and says,

182
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,399
what do you mean we have to do a dental

183
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,759
We just did it six months ago. I go, wow,

184
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,559
it's been six months. Really we should do a little

185
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,120
home test. Okay, I think I've talked this you about

186
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,679
this before, but it drives the point home so well,

187
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,799
not six months, not five, not four, just one month,

188
00:10:48,039 --> 00:10:51,679
four weeks easy, four weeks. Don't brush your teeth at all.

189
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,000
Let's see what you look like after a month. So

190
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,320
when you hear six months, that's a long time unless

191
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,559
you're brushing your tee the pet's teeth regularly. So anyway,

192
00:11:03,039 --> 00:11:05,840
the only way to really do it well is brushing.

193
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,799
You could put water, addemps, you could do crunchy foods. No, no, no, no no,

194
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,080
you need to brush the teeth, all right. So what's

195
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,759
a good alternative for fleetick heartworm prevention that is topical

196
00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:22,039
only and prevent neurological side effects? Well, you know, there

197
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,559
really is the only one topical for flea and tick

198
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:29,200
is going to be brevecto, and I don't know if

199
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,279
they even have one for fleetick and heartworm. So most

200
00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:36,039
of the ones are oral. Anything gets absorbed into the

201
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:41,080
blood through the skin as those topicals do, or ingestion,

202
00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:43,879
if they're going to get neurological side effect, they're going

203
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:47,440
to get it. Now, is it overrated in my opinion? Yes?

204
00:11:48,159 --> 00:11:53,399
Does it happen however, yes, And so I've had very

205
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,679
few cases of that reaction, that is, it is published

206
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,559
it is real, so you know it's hard. It's like Librella.

207
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,799
You go online about Librella and it's the worst noube

208
00:12:04,879 --> 00:12:08,360
drug ever. Yet I've used it, I don't know, over

209
00:12:08,399 --> 00:12:12,720
a hundred times and I've had zero, zero reactions. So

210
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,639
and not knowing that clients not be asking clients to

211
00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:18,600
come back for more Umbrella. They're coming in on their

212
00:12:18,639 --> 00:12:23,039
own why because that stuff worked. So it's a tough call.

213
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:27,720
So I don't know if there is topical fleet take

214
00:12:27,799 --> 00:12:31,759
heartworm that may not have any neurologic side effect. Now,

215
00:12:31,759 --> 00:12:33,519
one thing I will tell you as far as the

216
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:38,799
exosacylines go, which are Cordelia simperica, pervecto, and next guard.

217
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,600
The dog may have a reaction to one of them,

218
00:12:41,919 --> 00:12:44,879
but you can switch to another and they may be fine,

219
00:12:45,039 --> 00:12:50,360
and it doesn't cause neurologic disease. It can accentuate if

220
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,360
a dog already has or had a seizure or some

221
00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:57,759
sort of neurologic dysfunction. If you have the perfectly healthy dog,

222
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:02,000
the most cases where there were sea your behaviors, it

223
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,519
was because they already had some predisposition. So again you

224
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,600
got to look at these things carefully. But I am

225
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,679
I use it on my dogs, and I've used it

226
00:13:12,759 --> 00:13:17,120
on I mean, thousands of patients and we've had no problems.

227
00:13:17,519 --> 00:13:20,240
Doesn't mean it doesn't happen, but it does happen because

228
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,320
it's published. All right, I hope that helps. Yeah, no

229
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:28,240
bully sticks, I agree, Bethany high hear my voice. I'm

230
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,799
giving a good phone. All right? Good dogs? Have schizophrenia?

231
00:13:31,879 --> 00:13:35,919
Be pipolar? Oh? You know what, that's a really good question,

232
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,200
and I think so, but we don't know how to

233
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,399
evaluate it now. My term it dementia, and you know Alzheimer's,

234
00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:48,399
the doggy version of Alzheimer's. It can, but I mean

235
00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:52,279
there are some dogs that have exhibited some pretty strange behavior.

236
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,919
Definitely neurologic, definitely, as we would say a screw loose

237
00:13:57,039 --> 00:14:01,039
somewhere in that brain. Has it been diagnosed officially? I

238
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,159
don't think so. That'd be a great question for a neurologist.

239
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,960
In fact, in fact, I'm going to talk to one

240
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,759
of my neurobuddies. I have very good friends with my

241
00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:14,360
neurology professor, and he's now emeritus at David. He actually

242
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:17,440
now writes children's books. They're really cute, but he is

243
00:14:17,639 --> 00:14:20,440
he's my go to guy. I'm gonna ask him and

244
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,840
now of that, how can we tell that's a great question?

245
00:14:23,039 --> 00:14:25,679
All right. On that note, we're gonna go take a

246
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,559
quick break because we have to break here on cut

247
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,240
life Radio for our commercial breaks. Don't go away. I'm

248
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,679
going to stay tuned here with you on Instagram while

249
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:38,240
I mute myself from pet life.

250
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 2: You know the expression cats have nine lives? Well, what

251
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,879
if you can give them one more? To give them ten?

252
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,000
Movement is on a mission to help give cats an

253
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,960
extra life. How with Spain and neoter Spain or nootering

254
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,720
your cat helps them live a longer, healthier life and

255
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,440
it helps control free roaming hat populations too. Learn more

259
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,559
Speaker 1: Let's talk. Let's done, Petal Radio, Headline.

260
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 3: Radio, pet live Radio dot com.

261
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: Back hair Live. I'm gonna share this with pet life

262
00:15:43,639 --> 00:15:46,320
Radio too. So the question was what do we think

263
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,440
about colostrum for a seven year old cat with uti

264
00:15:49,559 --> 00:15:52,480
It's the inn at jack infection with bacteria and the

265
00:15:52,559 --> 00:15:55,639
urner jack. So I've heard of it I don't know

266
00:15:55,679 --> 00:15:58,720
whether it's it's very effective. I don't know for sure

267
00:15:58,759 --> 00:16:01,200
whether this cat is a female, well though I assume

268
00:16:01,799 --> 00:16:06,559
it probably is because females get much more UTIs in males.

269
00:16:06,759 --> 00:16:10,440
And so when I have a persistent UTI and a

270
00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:14,639
cat or a dog, the classic antibotic the schedule is

271
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,200
for ten days, I might up at fourteen. But if

272
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,879
I have one it's persistently coming back, I would first

273
00:16:20,879 --> 00:16:23,919
of all make sure one hundred percent that you get

274
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,519
a culture. You must have a culture and sensitivity because

275
00:16:27,559 --> 00:16:31,159
if you're just guessing what antibotic and it keeps coming back, well,

276
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,919
that's one of the reasons. It's the lung antibotic. So

277
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:36,759
you know, if I have rods, I'm going to probably

278
00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:39,279
use a selfless spoor and maybe docty cycling. I'll give

279
00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:41,720
it a shot sometimes, but if I ever get a

280
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,279
urin analysis back that has fifty to one hundred or

281
00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:48,120
greater than one hundred bacteria per high power field, I

282
00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:51,840
will insist on a culture, because if you pick the

283
00:16:51,879 --> 00:16:55,399
lung antibotic right, that means that those bacteria are still

284
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,240
multiplying and multiplying, then you're going to a really sick cat.

285
00:16:58,279 --> 00:17:01,360
On your hand or a sick dog. If it's less

286
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,559
than twenty five twenty five to fifty A, you know,

287
00:17:04,799 --> 00:17:09,000
I might take a guess based on the bacteria or

288
00:17:09,039 --> 00:17:11,319
the types. Was it rods, was it coxie? Was it mixed?

289
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,119
And then a lot of times I'm right, and that's good.

290
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,119
But I always tell the owner if this comes back,

291
00:17:16,279 --> 00:17:19,200
we are going to do a culture. So culture and

292
00:17:19,279 --> 00:17:23,359
sensitivity is very important, all right, deedles Hello. Also, by

293
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:28,079
the way, cats do better than dogs on still not

294
00:17:28,279 --> 00:17:30,839
you should just use it as reckless abandoned, but they

295
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,519
tolerate the steroids a little bit better than dogs. So

296
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,240
I would still try to get onto an alternate day

297
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,480
or every third day dose. You know. At some point

298
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,880
all right, hello, hello, Hello, Really ten thousand dogs were

299
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,440
rescued and not want to react to flee in tickbats. Yeah,

300
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,240
thank you, And that's Eloise and Eloise because she is

301
00:17:48,279 --> 00:17:52,200
a phenomenal rescue and ten thousand dogs that were rescued,

302
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,359
not one out of reaction to the flee in tickbeds.

303
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,559
And that's what I'm getting. But you know, it's like

304
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,759
anything else, as we know, think of yelp, think of yelp.

305
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,519
All right, how many of you, show of hands, love YELP,

306
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,519
I personally hated, and I ignore it now. I don't

307
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:09,480
even listen. I don't even care because it is BS.

308
00:18:09,799 --> 00:18:12,799
People that like to complain like to complain. You know.

309
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,000
Back in the day before there was all this online stuff,

310
00:18:16,599 --> 00:18:18,519
I used to lecture a lot about marketing in the

311
00:18:18,599 --> 00:18:23,160
veterinary world, and we talked about the negative reviews when

312
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,799
you piss somebody off, a client off, all right, something

313
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,759
you whatever, you did, it didn't work out well and

314
00:18:29,839 --> 00:18:32,359
you didn't handle it well as a veterinarian. I'm talking

315
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,839
to veterinarians now, So I say, they're gonna go and

316
00:18:35,839 --> 00:18:39,720
tell ten people. But if when your clients leave happy,

317
00:18:40,279 --> 00:18:42,920
they may may tell up to three people. And I

318
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,039
won't even directly. You don't, they're not gonna get out

319
00:18:45,079 --> 00:18:48,240
the roller decks start calling everybody. They're together with the

320
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,759
girls and they're talking, having some coffee or whatever, and

321
00:18:51,799 --> 00:18:54,039
the subject of pets comes up, and they want to said, oh,

322
00:18:54,079 --> 00:18:55,759
I had this great I had this great vet whatever.

323
00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,440
So my point was you'd have to make like three

324
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,240
times more people happy just to equal to one that

325
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:08,799
you're pissed off. So now with all this social media stuff.

326
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,039
It's not ten people, three people, it's ten thousand people,

327
00:19:12,039 --> 00:19:16,079
it's a million people. So it's unbelievable to me. So anyway,

328
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,240
I don't worry about it. I don't care. But unfortunately

329
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:25,920
it has been the literal, literal demise of some veterinarians

330
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:32,039
because of terrible reviews online on yelp, and I think

331
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,279
sadly one of the reasons why veterinarians now have overtaken

332
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:41,279
dentists as far as medical professionals with the highest suicide rates.

333
00:19:41,599 --> 00:19:45,799
That blows my mind. And yet it's true, it really

334
00:19:45,839 --> 00:19:50,480
is true. So all right, it's a male dog with

335
00:19:50,519 --> 00:19:54,039
bladder inflammation, all right, So if it has bladder inflammation,

336
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,559
then again culture first, make sure the culture is done,

337
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,480
get them on the appropriate and then what you may

338
00:20:01,519 --> 00:20:04,480
want to do is use like be deestinied or even

339
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,559
low dose pregnice zonne something to reduce the inflammation. Now,

340
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,960
it also could be very possibly that the problem with

341
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,759
the bladder itself, as you say inflammation, there may be

342
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,759
a bladder cancer in there called transitional cell carcinoma, and

343
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,119
that also might be part of the problem. So you

344
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,039
might want to have an internist do a thorough thorough

345
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,880
ultrasound of the bladder and see if there's anything else

346
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,599
going on from an anatomical standpoint that is contributing to

347
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,640
this problem with multiple back caural infections. Okay, I re

348
00:20:40,759 --> 00:20:44,440
ask you vegetables mushrooms complex helps too, So all that's

349
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:49,799
good protein cruciferous vegetables, mushroom complex helps. Do you see

350
00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:51,640
many dogs that clients want to give meage that you

351
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,759
say they are hyper and do you think it's medical

352
00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:57,319
or needs training? That's a great question. I think it's both.

353
00:20:57,599 --> 00:21:00,440
Really is. I've had some dogs they are just the personality,

354
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,000
they're just hyper personalities. And then also many dogs that

355
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:11,000
express their hyper activity because they are stressed, so it's

356
00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:14,519
an anxiety. So when they're anxious, then they start exhibiting

357
00:21:14,519 --> 00:21:18,680
this hyper behavior. So, in other words, can training help,

358
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,839
com medication help? And the answer yes to both. It

359
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,279
all depends what the underlying cause is. So do I

360
00:21:25,319 --> 00:21:28,119
know that people are having a value? I always ask people,

361
00:21:28,519 --> 00:21:31,000
you know, are they always hyper like this? When are

362
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,839
they not? When do they seem to be more in

363
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,839
control when they are hyper or when they are this anxious?

364
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,359
What is changing? What has changed? That is? Typically it

365
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,519
is how often does it happen? Have you been able

366
00:21:43,559 --> 00:21:47,039
to come up with any links to the behavior by

367
00:21:47,279 --> 00:21:51,440
external influences? So again, and there are many dogs that

368
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:55,519
are just it's their personality. I mean, it's crazy, hyper anxious. Now,

369
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,440
I think to your point I think you're making as

370
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,480
a trainer, is that there may be parts of this

371
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,440
dog's rearing, or if it was a shelter rescue, that

372
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,440
it's prior experience that has made it hyper and so

373
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,480
that maybe if getting into that could be beneficial. Unfortunately,

374
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,480
as I often a joke, when we have dogs like this,

375
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,799
I can't send them on the couch right and start

376
00:22:22,839 --> 00:22:25,559
having a conversation with them. When did this happen? What

377
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,039
happened in your life? Tell me about your day? I mean,

378
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,079
you can't do that. So a lot of times we

379
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,079
have to either take the easy road out and give

380
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,640
them meds or try training and see if that helps.

381
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,240
But what do you think is it trainable? You think

382
00:22:40,279 --> 00:22:43,039
without meds? Come back to me, let me go all right,

383
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,839
says this system for three months? You don't want the month?

384
00:22:46,319 --> 00:22:49,119
First of all, Sharon, about Provecto, I shouldn't sy I'm

385
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,839
not a fan. It's not my favor has that. First

386
00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:54,519
of all, it only is eight weeks with the ticks

387
00:22:54,799 --> 00:22:58,920
for most of the ticks. Secondly, even for fleas, clients

388
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,240
complain all the time that they're having to use it again.

389
00:23:02,519 --> 00:23:05,079
So you're paying for three months and it's a more

390
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,000
expensive per pill obviously because it's three months, but you're

391
00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:11,559
only getting two. Well, yeah, I don't know that's the

392
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:15,680
best the best plan. I'd rather get one that works

393
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,799
for one, and I'm paying for one, so I am

394
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,200
not using I don't use Veto that way. I like Siperica,

395
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,640
I like next Car, and I like Cordelia, Love Cordelia.

396
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,640
For cats, I believe maybe next year one of the

397
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,480
others is coming out with his own cat version. So

398
00:23:31,559 --> 00:23:34,880
but having said that, if you are using Vecto and

399
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,920
it is working to your satisfaction, then don't switch. Don't switch.

400
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,720
It's it's good. So I'm just sharing some of my

401
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:49,599
clients feedbacks. All right, all right. Bruce Brocklan, Holy cow, Bruce.

402
00:23:50,039 --> 00:23:53,160
That's fantastic. Bruce is the high school classmate of mine,

403
00:23:53,319 --> 00:23:58,079
and my god, I'm so thrilled. Anyway, Bruce, how you doing.

404
00:23:58,079 --> 00:24:00,759
You gotta get in touch with me. That's really cool?

405
00:24:01,039 --> 00:24:05,400
All right, nutrition die for cancer patients. Low carbon, high protein, Yes,

406
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:10,240
pretty much protein, but also there are some other nutrients,

407
00:24:10,279 --> 00:24:12,559
and I'm not I don't know exactly. We'd have to

408
00:24:12,599 --> 00:24:14,640
get a hold of an oncologist to talk about it,

409
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,200
but I would say that there are other things that

410
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,200
you try to avoid. You They even have diets strictly

411
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,519
for cancer. The goal is here that whenever we give

412
00:24:24,559 --> 00:24:27,920
them when you have a growing cancer, in essence, it's

413
00:24:28,039 --> 00:24:32,480
robbing the bodies of the nutrients because it's using them

414
00:24:32,519 --> 00:24:36,440
for itself to grow. So the cancer's growing and you're

415
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,680
still losing weight. It's really, really it's a tough call.

416
00:24:40,039 --> 00:24:42,519
So but I will I'll try and find out. I

417
00:24:42,559 --> 00:24:45,960
sound like thanks, I sound like my grandfather. That's from

418
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,440
my sister, so I know he always had a horse voice.

419
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,799
You know, death come here. Sounds like you could to

420
00:24:51,799 --> 00:24:55,240
be the Godfather. So anyway, a lot of hyperdogs i'm training,

421
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,400
their owners are not extra Oh well, that's perfect. Yes,

422
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:01,920
great point makes a great point, and that is that

423
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,039
sometimes when you have these hyper dogs, they're not getting

424
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,359
enough exercise. So you know, one of the things we

425
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,200
always say, you got to get them out there, you

426
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:11,680
got to get them running. Around, use up some of

427
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,519
that energy because they need it. This is exactly what's

428
00:25:14,519 --> 00:25:16,759
going on. So what happens if they get home and

429
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,119
you want to get them home and you want them

430
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,839
like you say, plump tucker tired out, You want to

431
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:24,839
just get them to All they want to do is rest,

432
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:27,920
So sometimes going out, spending a little you know, a

433
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,039
half hour extra at the park, throwing the ball, frisbee,

434
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,799
get a little hike, whatever it is. So when they

435
00:25:32,839 --> 00:25:34,759
come home, they didn't want to be hyper, they didn't

436
00:25:34,759 --> 00:25:37,480
want to run around. They just want to relax. Okay,

437
00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:40,440
el luis vicky also seems dogs and as soon as

438
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,400
they train, the dogs know what to do, so anxiety

439
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,000
is much lower. So some of the anxiety than is

440
00:25:46,039 --> 00:25:48,279
that they don't know what to do. So when you

441
00:25:48,319 --> 00:25:50,880
get them on a schedule, they learn their schedule, they're

442
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,799
more comfortable. Then they may not be so hyper inactive.

443
00:25:54,599 --> 00:25:57,000
Food is notion for cancer and dogs. Organic grass fed

444
00:25:57,039 --> 00:26:00,000
beef carbons feed it, protein starves it. That is true.

445
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,200
Basically organic grass fed beef okay, carbs feed the cancer

446
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,960
whereas protein starves it. So that's the point. That's why

447
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,920
these foods are usually lowering carbs higher in protein. All right,

448
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,759
I think. I hope I got to everybody. I hope

449
00:26:14,759 --> 00:26:18,000
I wave to everybody. So those of you that are

450
00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:21,160
