Somebody please... My 5 yr old rottie has been diagnosed with a staph infection. His paws are swollen and he has cysts between his toes on both back legs that drain clear fluid and turn red and raw leaving small ulcers. The vet. does not know what causes it but gives him Baytril for infection. It keeps coming back. I have been on the internet for days trying to find out what it is. I have come to the conclusion that it may be allergies. He came to Texas from Colo. He lived at 10,000 ft. level for 5 yrs. with no problems. Now at sea level he goes to the vet. every month. If it is allergies it will be hard to pin down. I myself have been sick for almost a month with them, so I am guessing it may be airborn, just don't know. The vet wants me to change his diet to see if that helps. He eats raw chicken,fish, and veggies with good appetite and no fever. He gets vit c,e and flaxseed oil. Just started giving him antihistamines., banadryl. The vet says this is a rare condition. Has anyone had this prob. before that may be of assistance? Any suggestions or support will be greatly appricated.

Thanks....{.Dan for Mr. Windel.}

Do the dog bathe in the sea?? If, do you rinse him with fresh water afterwards?

GM; As I live in Texas, we stretch the truth a bit. We are about 400 ft. above sea level in the piney woods of east Texas. I have been bathing his paws in the tub with epson salt according to vets. instrutions, but this gives him only temporary relief at best. It does nothing to cure the underlying cause. I have also been putting vit.E and alo vera on his sores. I have started again today to giving him antibiotics, reluctally, just to give him some relief until I can find something less intrusive.

it may be from the fish diet this, stop giving him fish, and, ban soy in the dog bfood, all dogs ive seen develop skinproblems from it. Also give the dog marrow bones from big animals, alet him dig them down in the earth, since all dogs need the transformed marrow, and bone , with earthbacterias, in order to keep their intestes functioning, they cant absorb minerals, like calcium that they need without that.
And try one does hepar sulfuris 200, and se if it goes, if not it mau be calc carb, or a other remedie, then i need more than this to decid, i need his temper, behaviour, food, dislikes, whe he like, and more, as whne vaxinated, cause vaxines, use to do this, and , please stop the antibi, it does further damage.

GM: He is 100%Rottweilder, 110lbs. all muscle, beautiful shiney coat, very smart. A true warrior with a heart of gold. He belongs to my youngest son. I was (volunteered), to keep him for a year. My son had to go to a prison for non-violent drug and alcohol offenders, (insane laws here),and there was nobody else to take care of him. He was fine for the 4 years he lived on the mountain top. He did not even go to the vet. until he came down here. But here he had to have provo shots, last spring, and monthly heart worm pills because of insect bites. He was originally on dry dog food. He did not care much for it. I was always putting half back in to the sack. He started getting hot spots within the first month. I changed to a more natural diet, raw chicken, fish scraps, (I will stop the fish}, small amounts of raw hamberger meat,mixed in with veggies, raw egg daily,{have already stopped the egg for now}, collard greens, a carrot, some lettace, all uncooked and chopped fine. I also add garlic for helping with flea control. He loves this. He eats it all, licks the bowl, deck, and looks around for more he may have dropped. Just started giving him Vit. E and C and flaxseed oil.
I bought some soup bones for him, look like rib bones 3 or 4 inches long, but haven't given him any. I was afraid he may try to swollow them, and also he is mainly a inside dog, and we have a small dog that lives outdoors, and I was afraid Windel would hurt him over the bones. I know big dog in and little one out seems strange, but we don't have a fence and if Windel is left out, alone, he wants to protect everything and he will run off any strangers that come up. If he is in the house and some one comes in, he just leans on them and lets them pet him. They think he is being friendly, but he is really keeping them from coming further into the house. Sometimes I don't even know anyone is there until they yell, COME GET THIS DOG.
I gave him one large cal pill, didn't seem to help. Im not sure what the hepar sulfuris 200 is. Know where I would get it?
I am still leaning to the conclusion that it is allergies of some kind. I can only hope that it is air-borne, seasonal, and goes away after our first frost.
When he feels good, he usually walks about 4 miles a day with me. But lately his paws are too sore.
The vet. calls them intradigital cysts, blister like, that weep clear fluid, then turn red and raw with small red ulcers sometimes on the side of his paws. Mainly on back feet. No fever with them.

The antibiotics only treat the symtons and not the underlying cause. I don't want to give them to him, but he was feeling so bad I felt he needed some relief. I will stop again when these run out, and hope something will help him get over this reoccuring problem.. The vet. says it is rare and he dosn't know what causes it.
Thanks...

This, is a vaxine damage, use hepar sulf, its antiinflammatory, and it clears out damage from the vaxine, and immunesystem gets cleansed.
also, dont give him ribs, only marrow bones from big game or cattle.
The remedie, i dont know where you can buy, but check the banners on the bb, you may order it from frremans in scotland..or ask someone on the bb, where to get it in us.

Thank you..I will surly give it a try. Mr. Windel will thank you too if it works. If things wern't bad enough, he just got thru stepping in an ant bed!!

GM: I could not find 2oox without ordering them. Got 30x, and suggestion 4 tabs every hour for 4 hours, next day 4 tabs 4 times daily

Will this work? I took the antibiotics back and got a refund.

Thanks...( also, when should I expect results? This is second day, noticed his eyes a little runny like he did on dry dog food. Getting toxins out?)

it will work, but i dont like the way you got suggestion too use it, what you shall do is this, get a 100 ml bottle, fill it 2/3 with a alcahol /water solution, one part ordinary vodka oe less, the rest water, put one pill in it, let that dissole, the always when taking a dose of it, give it ten hits against a book or somthing, take one spoon of it, into a glass of water, stir vigourously, give one teaspon as medication, repeat this every hour, but use a new fresh glass and spoon each time, when its fully healed, take a drop from the bottle, and put into a new bottle with the same alc/water mix, and hit that ten times, there you have 200, give one dose of that, and it will not return anymore. Mark the bottles, cause you may have use for them if getting inflamations.

GM: We have a large upstairs deck, I have noticed Windel coming out staying a min. or less then going back inside as if senative to light. When sun goes down, he stays on deck until bedtime. Could this be LUPUS??
