quanity protein"?
2. What is a "titer" test and where do I find it?
3. Where do I get "ayurvedic gel"?

***** 1.what type of dry kibble are you feeding now? have you ever looked
into the BARF diet? i do not feed any kibble as 1 of my hounds has alot of
allergies, i have went with the BARF diet and have seen magnificent changes in
her
skin, breathing, coat, eyes teeth etc... let me know the brand you are using...
2. a titer test is a test to tell if your dog has enough antibodies to
protect them from a certain disease, lets say your baby is due for distemper, a
titer test can be given, its a simple blood test, it will tell you if the dog
has
to have it or not, for instance, my girl was due for distemper, i had the
titer test done, it concluded that she did not need it and should be covered for
a
few more years,,, vaccines are very very hard on the immune system,,,i myself
do not vaccinate at all anymore, but some people feel the need and that is
there choice, i say educate yourself as much as possible on vaccines for dogs,,,
NOT GOOD!!!
3. you should be able to get the gel at your local healthfood store , call
around. BUT a better one is called neem plus its a mixture of the ayurvedic gel
and neem together...call 800-925-1371 to order ,,, a small amount goes along
way, it has himalayan ceder oil in it cederwood has antibacterial, and
antifungal activity, and also contains neem seed oil which has lots of healing
properties...pam and the hounds
