    Dr. Jones, thank you for this info. I gave my dog a baby aspirin once, and an allergy pill with Benedryl when he got stung in the face by a hornet because he was swelling up and breathing funny. Both times human meds served their purpose, but I would never use them on a regular basis.
    My 8-year-old male dog used to have a Mastiff-type head, but in the past 3 months, it has changed shape, and become almost pointed. He stopped eating all dry dog food, so now I create moist food for all three dogs. This has worked, but he has lost weight. There is a strange sound he makes when eating. I checked his teeth, but he doesn't like his mouth being opened and pulls away. Yesterday he quit eating completely. I don't have transportation or money for a vet bill, and I don't want to lose my friend. When my Mom suffered a stroke, it was his unusual bark that alerted me and saved her life, so he has a special place in my heart. I just came across something called Temporomandibular disorder and dogs can be affected. There is a very short video showing how to massage his jaw, but it doesn't show much. I tried the massage and he seemed to lean into it, so maybe this will help. Could his mishappen skull be putting pressure on his jaw? Do you have any info you can share on this, please?

    I had a friend whose cat got into a batch of vitamins and the Cat decided to break through the plastic bottle and ingest a couple of zinc tablets the cat then scratched all the fur off of its neck down to the bare skin and had to be rushed to the vet to get a shot of cortisone to stop the reaction before it scratched through the skin.
    Which would have been caused the infection.
    Even human vitamins can have terrible side effect on animals so keep your items locked away just like you would for any child

      I can't even imagine why anyone would give medications to a pet that are not meant for them.
      The only thing I can think of is trying to save money by not taking them to a vet. Penny wise and pound foolish, in addition to possibly killing your pet.

    I have used Pepto Bismol for pups with Parvo and it has cured them. You can find a dye free one but the dosage is actually miniscule.

    Hello Dr. Jones, I appreciate your videos, especially the ones on alternative cancer treatments for dogs. My dog was diagnosed with spleen cancer, we had the spleen removed and now I have him on several of the treatments you've suggested. I'm unsure of the dosages I should be using and there isn't a single veterinarian in my area that will help me for some reason. If you or anyone reading this can help with that or direct me to someone who I can discuss dosages with I'd be extremely grateful.

We also use msm, devils claw plus a glucosamine/chondroitin supplement.

    Question: Could you do a video as to why a dog would attack its owner? My 7 year old lab degloved me and I had 5 hours of surgery. We raised him since 8 weeks. No abuse ever! We started gradually seeing signs of aggression a few years prior but kept making excuses. I said it would never happen again it must be a fluke. We didn’t put him down after that….but unfortunately it happened again to only me. I did everything for him. He was not neutered but the vet didn’t think that would do it. We had to put him down. Broke my heart. Could it have been a brain tumor? He was strong and healthy as he appeared on the outside.

I have been going to the vet for my 10 yr old chihuahua the first time she had a dry coughand they gave me medication for that after blood work and xray was done. And went back for a follow up they have told me that one of her lungs has collapse and they have put her on medication called Prednisone and Clavamox the Dr told me that if that does not help to put her down. Since I can't afford the 1500 dollar mri scan.
