Question
my Pomeranian of 12 year and 8 month stopped having her food for 9 days before she died with blood coming out of her nose before 9 days she was a normal healthy dog what could i have done to prevent her untimely death she also vomited 2-3 times we had taken her to a local vet he gave some antibiotic and Liv-52 please answer my question i am feeling very guilty that i have let down my dog
I do not think you let down your dog. While 12 is very young for a healthy Pomeranian to die, it sounds like something serious was going on and nothing could have helped. Blood could have been from a tumor, or just part of the death process.
Your dog wants you to remember the good times and not to feel bad about her death.

Expertise
I can give you the holistic approach to any problem in any species, though mostly I work with dogs and cats. Depending on the condition and the type of animal, I will be able to give very specific treatment suggestions such as what flower essences, homeopathic remedies, nutritional supplements, diet changes, lifestyle changes or herbs that may be helpful - not drugs. I can also suggest where you can go for further education or to find a specialist in a specific holistic field. I can help you understand why your animal is ill and what improvements can be expected. I do not check messages more than every one to two days, so PLEASE DO NOT ask about EMERGENCIES - call your local veterinarian. I cannot diagnose your animal. I cannot prescribe specific treatments. I am no longer very current with conventional treatments, so cannot answer questions on those. I am not an expert on birds or small critters. I will give you helpful connections about hose species.
Experience
I graduated from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in 1980 and began using homeopathy in my practice after a client introduced me to it. By 1988 I was using exclusively holistic treatments. I began lecturing in 1987 and have spoken at veterinary conferences, health food stores, people's homes, churches, veterinary college conferences - anywhere people want to learn more about keeping their animals healthy.
