It is time to share some testimonials with readers. Maybe you'll see similarities with your own fur family and it prompts you to seek help. I have been honored to work on some amazing cases.
A little background: The Shar Pei breed is subject to a hereditary disease called renal amyloidosis. In the Shar Pei amyloidosis is a reactive condition. This form of systemic amyloidosis usually occurs with chronic inflammatory diseases.
Lucy, had an awesome family who went way above and beyond the call of duty.
When I received the case, Lucy was not eating and was brought to a specialty clinic for evaluation.
"Lucy, a Shar Pei, was diagnosed with end-stage renal failure in April, 2010; that she had less than a month to live. I called Susan anyway. It is now October. She has two vets, a specialist and a regular vet. They cannot believe she is still alive, much less running and playing. I believe in Susan so much that I will personally recommend her to anyone.

Thank you Susan for giving our family hope that was once lost."

Renal or kidney disease is common in older dogs and cats, and requires careful monitoring and dietary changes. The commercial choices are limited but targeted to the disease process, while some dogs or cats are unable to tolerate the veterinary/prescription diets formulated for this disease. Should this happen to your furry family member, remember that we can formulate home-cooked diets specifically tailored for your family member's needs. We would work through your veterinarian to make recommendations about appropriate recipes. A nutritionist will regulate each nutrient that blood and urine tests indicate as problem areas.
If you live in the Orange County, CA area, there is someone who can teach you to make the diet, come to your home to make it, or it can be delivered, frozen, to your home. http://www.californiak9kitchen.com/
Early detection is important for long life. Annual or semi-annual health checks for your "mature" family member with your veterinarian allow early detection of many diseases.
A personal Thank you to Pam and her daughter Cyndi. I appreciate the kind words and you guys deserve a medal for your efforts. Perhaps I could come back as a 4-legged family member of yours.
Be well,
Susan and family
