Should I use other kidney supplements with Vetoquinol omega?

AS long as he is eating normally, I don't think you need to be too concerned. Has he been licking at his back end? Anal glands can smell "fishy," so that may be the issue. Yuck! :/ Its not urgent if he is otherwise normal, but get him in to your vet when you can so they can do an exam and make sure nothing is wrong. They can also check and express his anal glands if needed. Thanks for asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I think you should have him evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and possible treatment. Anal glands may need to be emptied and it would be good to ensure that there is no abscess formation that may be making them smell more than usual. Also, they can look into what is causing his vomiting. Possible reasons for vomiting include foreign body ingestion and obstruction, dietary indiscretion and pancreatitis, among others. At the very least, they can prescribe medications to make him feel better. Good luck!

Hello. This actually sounds pretty darn good! The only thing to add is to make sure Tony takes in as much fluids as possible & make sure you stay on top of those kidney rechecks. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Jakari. I think he may be ok from this overdose. I would have expected by now you would have seen issues such as vomiting if that was going to happen. You don't need to do anything, he sounds like he is fine. I hope this helps!

Hello, and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Yes, that product should be pretty safe. However, I don't recommend giving supplements such as this without being directed by a vet. The most important way to support Bruno's organ function is with a good high quality food, and good preventative care (disease prevention through vaccination, parasite control, etc). Milk thistle is a great liver support, but the other ingredients have limited data in dogs and, while probably safe, I would not recommend them.

Hi, thank you for using PetCoach! From your post, I gather you are wondering what other testing and/or therapies are appropriate to maximize Finley's life span and quality of life. For testing, I would be interested in his urine specific gravity, a urine protein:creatinine ratio, leptospirosis titers (unless vaccinated for lepto), tick titers, and abdominal ultrasound. I would also be interested in more of his medical history. This would be a good case for a consult if you are interested, and I am available through this system. Things that tend to help are Increasing Finley's water intake, putting him on a diet lower in protein (typically prescription), keeping him on medications that prevent gastroduodenal ulceration, and some supplements help. Cranberry extract-based supplements are a neutraceutical class of supplement meaning they are not regulated by the FDA and do not have a lot of research behind them. That said, one I would recommend is this: Nutramax Crananidin Pet Supplement, 75 Count https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0077CYK6E/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_xWmUzbACQAY5N Give as labeled. I am sorry Finley has such a significant disease and hope he does well! I hope you find this information helpful!

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I am sorry to see that Boomer is in renal failure. What I typically recommend for renal failure in dogs are the following products: 1. Rehmannia 8 liquid or tablets 2. Epakitin (to help bind excessive phosphorus) 3. Renal support by Standard Process 4. Azodyl probiotic capsules (if you are not already giving these) 5. Prescription kidney diet such as Hills K/D 6. Renal K+ 7. Anti-nausea medications (Cerenia / Zofran) Some of these are more natural products and obviously the anti-nausea medications are prescription drugs but can help keep Boomer more comfortable. I also managed a kidney failure patient who also had lymphoma with all of the above including subcutaneous fluids and also treating him twice weekly in a hyperbaric chamber. His original prognosis was 3 months and that prognosis was given 15 months ago. If you have someone in your area that has a hyperbaric chamber, you can speak with them about treating Boomer with it. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
