Update:
Lito's warts are now completely gone and his obvious radiant health is well-maintained with your supplements. Clear eyes, great smell, shiny coat and sweet breath, and only occasional limping (slipped hock) due to hyper-exertion. His physical stamina is quite remarkable, muscle tone is improved and impressive. I tried to take him off your supplement last month, but he developed Giardia quickly, so I put him back on a full daily dose. I plan to keep him on it indefinitely in addition to green tripe.
Cherry is on a prophylactic 1/2 dose of the pain formula 4 x a week and is doing remarkably well. I have no doubt she is now healthy and will remain so on the raw diet. Thank you so much for your amazing products. I saw results immediately in both of my dogs.
Cherry:
Cherry the pitbull mix (left) was adopted from Grateful Dog Rescue in San Francisco at the age of 6 months. Cherry was born into a litter of puppies that belonged to a squatter in a housing complex in SF. Cherry's mother was a very undernourished pitbull and they were living in human refuse 2 feet high. The underweight pups were abandoned by the squatter when the police arrived and subsequently the litter was brought into ACC at about the age of 3 weeks where they all developed parvo immediately. A few puppies died. Cherry survived and was so extremely hyperactive, they waited to place her into a home until she was 6 months old. I was lucky to get her at 6 months of age. She had mild demodex mange and a front leg limp within 1 week of finishing her puppy immunizations. At about a year old, she lost all of her fur and she was extremely itchy for months. I placed her on a grain free BARF diet and her health stabilized quickly for a few years. Not realizing yet that Cherry was vaccine reactive, we mistakenly revaccinated her for a second time at 3 years old. All of her joints swelled up and she began to limp again. Additionally, she developed another rash and mild fur loss. After about 9 acupuncture treatments, Cherry's overall health improved once more. After 4 continuous years on a the BARF diet, she looked healthy and stable. Despite her healthy appearance, Cherry was still bothered by occasional bouts of skin rashes brought about by hot weather. The rash was often accompanied by severe itching. Cherry also retained a persistent right front limp.
Frustrated and worried by these persistent symptoms of poor health, I started giving her Professional Veterinary Immune Tabs. I knew the tabs were designed for very, sick dogs and suspected Cherry might improve immediately as a result of having relative health, the BARF diet, steady exercise and youth on her side. I figured that Cherry's immune system was still not quite right from a combination of her mother's malnutrition, poor genetics and vaccine toxicity. Cherry's skin bumps (pustules) went away within 2 weeks of taking VITabs and never returned. She has been rash/itch free for 1.5 years and has not had another bout of fur loss. We even moved our home to a much hotter climate and Cherry was fine! The Veterinary Immune Tabs also seemed to eliminate her limping almost completely - when I take Cherry off the V-I-Tabs, her limp is obviously more pronounced! After 1.5 years on V-I-Tabs, Cherry has radiant fur, endless energy and almost no limp. We will be lifelong Veterinary Immune Tab consumers. Thank you so much for creating such an amazing product.
Lito:
Lito the Belgian Malinois (right) was adopted from a breeder at 7 weeks old. He was the only surviving puppy of his litter and his mother had mastitis. He never really thrived as a puppy health-wise, in my opinion. Lito had a dull coat, poor appetite, giardia 3 times, chronic loose stool, stomach problems, two rear slipped hocks causing occasional limping. He always had a little gunk always coming out of his eyes and he smelled kind of "doggy". I put him on a temporary diet of solely raw green tripe at 7 months old and most symptoms disappeared quickly. At 9 months I transitioned him to a proper BARF diet. His health stabilized even more. Lito's slipped hocks remained though, along with an occasional bout of giardia and 2 bloody warts on his shoulder/chest. Overall though, Lito looked much better than he did as a puppy, but his warts still worried me and I wondered what was going on inside his body that I couldn't see.
Finally, I put Lito on Veterinary Immune Tabs and for the last 6 weeks he has greatly improved! There isn't any goop coming out of his eyes any longer. His residual "looser than ideal" stool, despite being on a raw diet for years, disappeared completely within 2-3 days. His stool is now dark, hard, well-formed, odor-free and normal looking for the first time ever. His stool now looks like what a raw fed dog's stool should look like. His 3+ year old bloody warts, both huge, shrank down to 3/4 of original size within 2 weeks and are now almost gone. His coat is shinier, redder and he is shedding much less. His body odor is gone. His nails are growing at 2x the rate they used to and he is limping much less. Lito hasn't thrown up since he has been on Veterinary Immune Tabs and his appetite is MUCH better. Lito's recovery seems like nothing short of miraculous to me. Your product greatly exceeded my expectations in this instance. Again, we will surely be lifelong Veterinary Immune Tab consumers. Thank you so much for helping Lito and Cherry. I will keep you posted on Lito's progress in a few months and you may post the update.
When are you going to develop a similar product for humans? That's the obvious next step...
