Health Update

Buddy says, 'Hey, I'm doing great! Got my ears cleaned and nails clipped this morning. It wasn't too bad, mom is pretty gentle. Then she fed me my sardines, liver & catfish with finely chopped asparagus. And then she made my cookies. I tried one, it was great! It had peanut butter, blueberries & vegetable fish broth with a touch of garlic. Mmmmm! Thanks mom! Love you.' September 21st, 2009

Buddy’s Homemade Dog Food for Cancer Diary - Day 1

Sep 13th, 2008 by Joanne | 0

Thought it would be a good idea to see in print exactly what Buddy is eating. Exactly. That way it’ll be easier to know where any fine tuning needs to be done. So here goes…

I will have to do this one day at a time because I really don’t remember the finer details of yesterday. Geez I’m getting old!

Saturday

Breakfast

  • 1/3 cup* leg of lamb - cooked in organic chicken broth and chopped finely;
  • 1/4 cup mashed  steamed cauliflower;
  • 3 one inch squares organic drug-free beef liver;
  • 1 heaping tbsp flax oil** cottage cheese mixture - The Budwig Protocol.

Afternoon Snack and Meds

  • My mom gives Buddy an afternoon snack of either fresh fruit or fresh vegetables. He gets a small quantity. This is at about 2pm just after he has his afternoon medications/tinctures dropped on small chunks of sardine.

Supper

  • 1/4 cup leg of lamb - cooked in organic chicken broth and chopped finely;
  • 2 soft-poached eggs - cooked in a shallow mix of water and organic chicken broth;
  • 1/3 cup mashed steamed cauliflower;
  • 1 1/2 tbsp flax oil** cottage cheese mixture - The Budwig Protocol.

Bedtime Snack and Meds

  • At 9 or 10pm, Buddy gets another tsp of low-fat ricotta cheese with his second turmeric capsule stuffed in it.
  • Then he gets 3 more chunks of sardine with his tinctures.
  • At about 10:30 my mom gives him his bedtime cookies. He gets 4-5 of these every night.***

Supplements added to breakfast and supper are the same every day

  • 1/2 tsp Berte’s Immune Blend by B-Naturals (no affiliation but highly recommended!);
  • 1/8 tsp Green Blend;
  • Extra**** animal based digestive enzymes that support the pancreas, contains ox bile;
  • 1 capsule Kyolic organic aged garlic extract with L-Arginine, B6, Folic Acid and B12;
  • 1/8 tsp crushed egg shells (morning meal only);
  • 100 mcg Selenium;
  • 1/2 dropper HAC Immuno Stim-R (off and on depending on health); 

*Buddy gets less meat at breakfast because every morning, just before he eats the main meal, he get 4 chunks of sardine packed in spring water. These are what I drop his herbal tinctures on. He also gets a tsp of low-fat ricotta cheese in which I stuff his turmeric capsule.

Buddy Gets the Royal Treatment!**I have been switching approximately weekly between mixing flax seed oil and salmon oil with the cottage cheese. Still not sure if one is working better than the other, I just know that it’s helped Buddy’s skin sensitivity and coat quality IMMENSELY!

 ***These cookies constitute pretty much the only grains he gets in his diet. That is aside from a few small bites of 7 grain toast, a very few and quite infrequent.

****Buddy has always had difficulty with digestion. His stomach can and will blow up quite a lot! It has helped to FINELY cut the meat and add the extra enzymes to his food. I’m still overfeeding him a bit. It’s very hard to cut him down by much because he’s absolutely crazy when it comes to his food!

Sleeping Baby Buddy BoyOkay, so now I have to take a pound of organic chicken out of the freezer for his breakfast tomorrow.

Buddy and I bid you good night and sweet dreams…
