fireman 10,917 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 The dogs you got through parvo and distemper had they been vaccinated fireman. And we'll done for getting the dogs through it mate, No mate the distemper one was back in the late 80's and the lurcher i thought was jabbed but hadn't been,just did the keeping it hydrated bit with electrolites and every other drink i put down her neck at regular intervals during the day and night had honey and garlic in it.I never have a lean dog either,fit but not lean and i swear that tad extra she had about her kept her in this world as with parvo it's dehydration and the quick loss of weight that causes the organ breakdown that usualy kills a dog,the vet said i should just pts and save her the hassle of a shit death.This dog has done everything i ever wanted her for and a bit more since then and has no issues from the parvo in any way..

king 11,972 Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Spot on mate.ive read the book for yrs and often wondered how effective the things she was saying are. It's great to hear someone who has benefited a bit from the book. 1 Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 It's a pity that she put that in her book. The documentary really is very good and interesting. What was the name of the documentary Neil.i would like a watch of that. Juliette of the herbs. 1 Quote Link to post
socks 32,253 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 So if a greyhound trainer told her that feeding your dog carrot tops will make it go around a second faster would she put that in a book ... And would you believe it ... The greyhound trainer could be a complete idiot as far as we know who by the sounds of it was talking out of his Arse ... If there is no concrete evidence then it's not for me .........Yes he could be a complete idiot socks and yes he could be talking out of his arse.But let's try and imagine for once what if the trainer was a very well respected trainer in the greyhound world. And was talking the truth. Like I said I don't know her or the dog trainer but not everything written in books is bullshit.there could be some truth in what she says.and yes she may be full of shit and lies. Who knows. He was a top trainer he would be happy to be named about his revelation lol ... Just think about it logically how can a jab against a diseas as a puppy possibly slow down your dog as an adult ??? All my greyhounds were jabbed and they held a few track records and won some top open races so the Jabs certainly didn't slow them down ....... Right think about this logically socks what you are saying.you can't say the jabs never slowed your dogs down.because you never ran your dogs without being jabbed. If they ran any faster they would have scorched the track ..... 2 Quote Link to post
steve t 931 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 These books were like the dog bible twenty odd years ago, I got a dog through distemper using honey water and garlic and following her advice , but still pts in end as it kept fitting afterwards, its brain had been affected.

Shame that and it's a right old do if you stick to her word as it's all about temp and non feeding until the temp is stable etc,i will admit to my old dog looking a state and someone did call the rspca and they turned up with a few coppers as i was living on a hippy site at the time in Suffolk.The local vet came with them and have to say he had a cup of tea with us and listened to what was happening with the dog,had a quick scan of the book and told the rspca that the longest he'd kept a dog alive with distemper was 2 weeks,my dog had had it for a month and i was doing a better job then he ever did ,he even got us in contact with a herbal vet in scotland who'd send us free of charge all the herbs and honey we needed.My dog was free of problems afterwards but i have seen a unbalanced dog due to having distemper and i mean unbalanced as it kept falling over like it was drunk,it to was pts in the end.. 4 Quote Link to post
paulsmithy83 567 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I wonder if my polio injection slowed me down or one me other jabs. Can't work it out I swear i should be faster. Is that why all the Africans are so fast. Not jabbing seems to work well for them guys Quote Link to post
