    Spirulina

    I went to the local pet supply store today that I love and found a few things I want to try to help Dakota recover from her upcoming surgery on Thursday for the mct. I picked up some Spirulina, anyone have any experience with this? I also got some more raw goats milk, I've been using this and the dogs LOVE it and since it has great probiotics, I give it to them. I also got some bone broth with turmeric. Any more ideas on boosting her immune system??

    Lysine. I give my 12 year old lab one in her evening meal. It's the same stuff you get for humans.

    Mine have been on spirulina for years. There are really a ton of different things out there to give to help support the immune system. I'm personally not a fan of goat's milk for an adult dog at a healthy weight, IMO it's just extra calories. Mine get a daily probiotic in capsule form and are on raw so they also eat lots of raw green tripe which has probiotics.

    You know, I just realized that is the stuff I had tried quite a while ago. I found it online-super food blah blah blah and it upset my stomach. I was really glad last night that I didn't see any stomach upset in Dakota-none that was obvious anyway. She goes in for her surgery tomorrow. Wish us light & mojo please.
    And thank you in advance. I don't want anyone thinking I am not appreciative for taking the time out of your day to post on my thread. I appreciate all.
