look all things in moderation, all dogs can react to foods, it can depend on their frequency, amounts an dthe fact your dog has never had them.
also green potatos are poisionous to all really. that is slight green tinge to skin, still taste same. but i need to be clear that many of those so called toxic foods listed above are found in many dog foods, and natural remedies treatments for pets, such as garlic for fleas. and i have never met a vet that didnt agree to that one. look just likei n humans food such as garlic is bad in lg amts, it thins the blood in a way. so all in moderation. i jsut worry that these sort of posts will make ppl use less natural stuff and rely on chemicles, not to mention limit their dogs diet. yay for the vets pharmacutical company. my dog has lived with a vegetarian all her life, her main diet is fruit and veg, but all in modertion, i dotn give a kilo of grapes, jsut a few for a snack. and i know many dogs liek this. so all in moderation and with a grain of salt, use common sense.

Do you know Oscar's medical history? (ie - history of the parents and so forth)? I would check to see if there is no neurological probs somewhere - some of those symptoms are definitely neurological but whether they are caused by a mini stroke or some sort of problem would be hard to diagnose now. I cannot see potatoes causing all that havoc - unless as was suggested, there were onions added to the mix. I think Oscar should see a specialist just to be safe!

News UPDATE:
Oscar looks fine and is walking normally now. Way way better. Just like normal. :love: The reason I didn't take him to the Vet is after 2 vets they didn't know what they were talking about. One was giving me the option of giving Oscar a boost shot. Another vet said he's going to go blind and die in a couple days. He's only 7months old, which worried me that he would have any neurological effects. Both his parents were fine when we picked him up back in April. ..We looked back at what we gave him to eat before he had his episode and I quickly used the internet as my resource. I believe Vets are good for regular shots but in this case I didn't think it was for Oscar's case. He had poison in him and we needed to get it out of his system asap. We gave him some soup to help out his kidney and clean his system. So far it's working and he's doing so much better now. We'll keep update on his progress on the week to come. |

I worry that you are doing too much of "waiting 'til it rains to fix the roof". I really don't think you should wait to see if he gets worse (it seems as though every subsequent episode is worse than the one before.... an ominous sign) I agree with seeing a specialist.

If he had some type of poison in him, as you suggest, with no known source, then he is out of your care and needs to be seen by another vet as soon as possible. I stand by my last post, please don't jeopardize Oscar's health further as you are not a vet and do not have the training necessary to help him, given he continues to have these episodes. This isn't about your ability to do research on the internet as I'm sure you're doing your best. However, self-research alone will not save your dog when the next episode happens (and it will). Take your research to a specialist as soon as possible, Oscar needs you to be responsible and get him trained care, not suggestions from websites as to what it *might* be.

I understand, but I need to educate myself for Oscar's sake. Right now he's doing fine just like he was before. So it was toxin's in his body that affected his nervous system. (Just like us if we take something toxic.. Our body doesn't know how to handle this toxin, it affects our nervous system as well.) Flushing his system is what needed to be done. We found a soup remedy that helped his kidney process the toxins out of his body. Recipe: -3 whole unpeeled carrots, cut into desired eatting size. - 1/2 Dicon -Find some Dicon leaves. (hard to find cause they usually cut them off at the grocery store. Check the farm market if you can't find it.) -1 Gobo root unpeeled, cut to desired size. Wash all, cut 3 carrots first, feel the weight to it. Next weight it to the 1/2 Dicon and Dicon leaves and Gobo. All should be the same consistant weight comparison. Put them into 1 bowl. Use 1:3 ratio for water. Therefore 1 bowl size add 3 of the same bowl of water into a "Glass Bowl only". Wait for the water to boil and add all the ingedients. Once it boils again turn the heat down to medium. Boil for 1 hour. Do not lift up the lid for any reason until 1 hour past. Let to cool down and drink the soup. It's suppose to be bland, do not add any seasoning to it. Drink it yourself and give it to your pet. Just like soup except without the finner stuff. Oscar is active again and we're going for our jog now. Thank you all for your vast knowledge. edit: http://img450.imageshack.us/img450/1...10513024gt.jpg http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/3...05131315iz.jpg Last edited by MyEskii; November 13th, 2005 at 04:14 PM.
