Sorry I keep responding so late but these messages alerts are going into my junk mail even though I check them as not junk mail.

How much pepcide and how often would you give a 6 lb. dog?
I’m very much into essential oil and will try the peppermint.
I have been rubbing a bit of Frankincense onto his lower spine over his kidneys when I remember. Its very healing in general.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for all the details!
Much reading and digesting to do.
Your advise is very much appreciated!

He is doing quite well.

I think I read somewhere it was recommended (for kidney failure in dogs) to feed liver and kidney a few times a week.
Does anybody know anything about this?

P.S. He is not on any prescription food and wouldn’t eat it if he was
The vet did not recommend anything other than the sub q saline treatments.
When I asked him if there was any meds he could prescribe he said yes but that none would help that much, so we’re kind of on our own helping our little guy feel comfortable.

Prior to being diagnosed he was on a high quality grain free kibble (wetted with water) mixed with a grain free canned dog food but he started refusing to eat that so I’ve been feeding him people food like eggs, cottage cheese, canned salmon and mackerel, chicken and venison. He also likes cooked and raw carrots.
I have some dog probiotics I’ve been giving him and the supplement he’s on is:
Pet Wellbeing Kidney Support Gold…just something I found on the internet.

I will have to look into the homemade kidney disease diet ASAP.
