Tuesday I’m hearing feedback from you
many people want my videos to be a
little bit shorter get to the point
quicker secondarily don’t say so many
things there are three things three
minutes starting on that clock now
urinary incontinence or leaking urine
what is it very common in our spayed
female dogs though there are spayed they
lose their ovaries they lose their
source of hormones specifically estrogen
estrogen is needed by many dogs to be
involuntary Continent meaning needs to
work in that that the small smooth
muscle the sphincter that controls
results in bladder control when you’re
asleep they’re spayed they lose it
they’re no longer continent we’ve got
three quick things potentially can be
really helpful without so the hormones
that your veterinarian will prescribe
what is number one doula
[Music]
the first thing in the plant estrogens
soy isoflavone own the soy is a
particular type of plant estrogen called
a phytoestrogen this is a soy isoflavone
only complex what it is they’ve
concentrated parts of the soy itself
this is one here I picked up from my
local co-op for these capsules here
they’re saying one twice a day for an
average person about a quarter of a
tablet as you can see them here
a quarter one of these tablets for a
twenty pound dog twice daily but expect
you’re gonna take somewhere between four
to six weeks to see an effects you need
to be giving that for four full four to
six weeks before you can judge whether
or not it’s being effective or not
[Music]
the second one which is shown to be very
beneficial for a number of incontinent
dogs
it’s called corn silk here’s some of it
in this little bag pick it up I just
picked it up for my natural health store
comes as a loose form so there it is
right there it’s just this see it’s the
top of any time you haas some corn you
see what comes on the very top of the
corn cob that fine-looking sort a hair
looking silky powder product it’s called
corn silk there it is
in Hermel medicine it’s primarily been
documented as being a mild diuretic but
it’s also being helpful for many of
these incontinent dogs so pretty darn
safe potentially really effective when
we’re looking at corn silk doses you can
get it in the capsule formation and
there you’re looking at about one
milligram per pound twice daily as a tea
as the loose loose tea here I put in two
tablespoons in one cup of water and
that’s what I would give to an average
at a 50 pound dog someone like to like
you’ve about half of that so I’d be
giving her about a half a cup of this a
day we need to be giving this for four
to six weeks before once again you can
assess whether it’s been effective or
not corn sope tea time around teyla not
son give me those the whole again a
latish brown color let’s see what it
tastes like it tastes kind of like corn
the third remedy which has been shown to
be helpful for a number of dogs ground
flax ground flax is also a fight or
plant test retest regions in it so what
we’re trying to do is you know replace
that estrogen that’s been lost from
especially for my if your dog has been
spayed anymore a natural way black
ground flax also has and another of
different beneficial qualities
nonetheless being the essential fatty
acids the ligands that are within the
ground flax potenti also have
anti-cancer properties a number of
reasons to be feeding your dog ground
flax on a pretty regular basis pretty
standard dog dose but one tablespoon of
ground flax per cup of food that daily
meaning a truly get about in total about
a tablespoon a day there it is that
sweet sort of yummy looking mmm she even
likes ground flax it’s awesome she’s
