Knock on wood diet

Hey everyone,

Last week was a little ruff, this week has been better. My antibiotic seems to be working – I’m not oozing anymore and I have lots of energy! I want to go outside and play, but my pawrents are taking it easy with me after this last infection.

I know everyone is different, but I thought I would just share what my pawrents give to me as part of my new regime.

Approximately 5:00am – Cell Salt
15 minutes later – Dr. Loops remedy of the day (I alternate between 3 different remedies)
15-30 minutes later – breakfast (Darwin’s raw food)
Vitamin C and Vitamin E supplement (this is for the artemisinin program)

Approximately 12:30 pm – dinner (2 cans of Kirkland Signature Nature’s Domain – this is a link to the review on dogfoodadvisor.com)
Curcumin, Salmon Oil and Transfer Factor Canine Complete Formula mixed in
Vitamin C and Vitamin E supplement (this is for the artemisinin program)

Approximately 5:00pm – Cell Salt
15 minutes later – Dr. Loops remedy of the day

Approximately 7:30-8:00pm – Artemisinin (1), Artemix (1), Butyrex (2) and Vitamin D (1) with cottage cheese/ricotta cheese. My pawrents discovered I don’t like taking pills, and when I caught on to their trick of mixing pills with cottage cheese, I started turning my nose at the cottage cheese (so be careful about mixing medicine in a favorite food). So now my pawrent has to gently make sure I take my pills with cottage cheese, but after we are done, he gives me a couple big spoonful of ricotta cheese on a separate paper plate. YUMMY!!!

I know I talk about me alot, but I would like to take a moment and give a shout out to my baby sister Mojo – We’ve been through everything together. We came from the same litter – when our Pawrents couldn’t decide between the two of us, they took us both! We are thankful they did! She is always there with me and for me.  Here are a couple pictures of Mojo being there for me during some of my ruff days.

Mojo was so happy when I first came back home from the amputation – you can see she is smiling!

This is her staying near me during my last infection.

This is nothing new for her – even going way back… this is us when we first came home together (Mojo is cuddled on top of me) – as you can see, she’s always been there, with me and for me.

So knock on wood, we are hopeful this regime will allow me to keep hanging out with my fams and especially my baby sister Mojo.

Alright, time to head out for now, talk to you all soon – ruff, ruff!

    Ohhhhh what precious photos! Mojo is a great sissy for Sebastian, what a lucky pack!

    Good to hear things are going well and Sebastian is feeling so much better. We would love to share your diet/Dr. Loops info in the Tripawds Nutrition blog. Got any photos you’d like to include? Let us know! You can direct message me or just post ’em here if you get a chance.

    Great news! I keep trying to follow you but then I seem to lose you. How sweet is that, siblings that are so close, everything happens for a reason! I’m glad things are on an upswing, I seem to have lost some of your story, so sorry. You are so diligent in the care that you are giving, just the best pawrents!! My thoughts are with you, hopefully you are on the upswing now❤❤❤

    • Thank you – the infection gave us a brief scare, but it didn’t faze Sebastian much. Other than that, he has had some good luck with everything else thus far (knock on wood).
      He weighed 76 pounds prior to his surgery and now he weighs 72 pounds, so he’s doing a good job of eating and drinking. He definitely has been saving up some energy once he is able to get through this infection. I just took him out to go potty, and he started to take off running until I called him and let him know he wasn’t cleared quite just yet, lol.
      And yes, Sebastian and Mojo have a great bond. Luckily they don’t have the littermate syndrome – they love socializing with anyone and everyone they come into contact with but it’s neat to see their bond, especially in times like this.
