PERTAINING TO PETS

Numbers of people have inquired over the last few years with questions
concerning the use of flaxseed oil with pets. I wish now that I had kept a
record of those but I didn't. For the benefit of passing on information, I
am going to set up this document that I can send as an attachment that will
quickly answer some of those questions.

In the future, if anyone reading this can furnish us with any result of the
use of flax oil with our pet, I will add it to this account for the benefit
of future contacts. Of course, I am now seventy seven, so how many years I
have is uncertain, though I do not see any immediate problems. The flax oil
has arrested the problem long ago, but it had come back a little because I
had not known that Dr. Budwig recommended one tablespoon a day per hundred
lb. Body weight and not just a tablespoon a day. We've increased and seem on
the right road again. Whether man or pet, this must be kept up for life to
keep bodies able to handle cancer cells.

The first thought of pet application came when a man told me about his dog.
He was getting along in dog years and had developed cancer. His eyes were
dull and he was so weak that he couldn't lift his leg. This man told me that
he mixed up a couple of tablespoons with some cottage cheese a couple of
times a day and the dog wolfed it down. He said it wasn't long before the
dog's eyes were bright, his coat was shiny and he was running all over the
place.

The second that I knew of was a similar situation with a dog that was owned
by my cousin's daughter. In both cases the dogs lived out a normal doggy
life.

Then a few years ago I received, in a Christmas card, an item cut out of a
paper in Maine. My friend told me that I would enjoy it. It was a question
to the veterinary column. The question was how to prevent his pet squirrel
from losing its hair. The answer was to feed it flaxseed oil. It would build
up its immune system and it wouldn't' lose its hair.

A few years ago a young kitty cat wandered in, very malnourished, and had
very little hair. I thought of the article, and put out cottage cheese with
around a teaspoon of flaxseed in it. She had that every day along with
regular cat food. It wasn't but a short time that she developed a shiny
coat, and is today a beautiful cat. After that she wouldn't eat it anymore.
Maybe animals have an instinct about things like that.

One lady I know had a large dog that had developed cancer that was fairly
advanced. The folks tried everything to get it to eat food with flax oil in
it, and it just wouldn't. It did die.

One man wrote to me from Wisconsin and told me about their dog. I quote from
his letter as follows, "Results! Our dog, Penny, was to have died two and a
half years ago from several cancerous tumors. We changed her diet, gave her
many nutritious supplements and herbs. She survived..but..was still in pain
and slept most of the day away. So, she is a member of the family too, so we
gave her one Tablespoon of the Flax Oil daily [she is a small dog of about
35 pounds]. Now she goes for a four mile morning walk with Ina and seems to
be better than before and many of the tumors have receded."

I know of other situations in general, but not in specific detail. I do know
that our local vet is impressed enough with it that she is recommending flax
oil when people bring in pets with cancer.

One of our correspondents, Ron Conley of texas, has a Siberian Huskey,
Natasha, that had been in serious trouble with cancer. He has a detailed
account of what was done to treat her over four months time. I believe the
vet had believed that she could not live more than 30 to 60 days. The
treatments involved a lot of things with flaxseed oil a major support. The
dog is doing very well today, and his web page includes references to
several different pet situations. For information, check his web site:

It is an inspiring story.

I will be awaiting further experiences to pass on to pet owners.
