Dog with Pyometra
Hi,My dog was rushed to the vet on New Years Eve after she stopped eating for 2 days and was listless. He diagnosed Pyometra (initially open, mistaken for season, then closed which made her go down hill). Because of her age (10) and physical state she was treated with hormone injections and antibiotics, the last injection was 5 days ago. I would have liked to treat her with homeopathy but it was an emergency. She is a lot better and has her energy back. During her illness she didn't have a temperature, didn't drink more than normal only lost her energy, slept a lot and stopped eating. The problem is, she still doesn't eat. I am feeding her by giving her meat and vit/minerals in her mouth and forcing her to take it. No amount of treats or favourite foods will convince her to eat. She still has stringy, blood streaked discharge, but seems otherwise perfectly fine. Her nose is wet again, she asks to go for walks and is alert. What could I give her best to make sure the womb gets fully cleaned and is there anything that will stimulate her appetite? Also, is there a remedy or remedies that I can keep handy in case the problem occurs again? Thanks very much.

Give her a dose of Pulsatilla 200c, just one dose and report back in 48 hrs.
One dose is made by dissolving one pill of the remedy (or one drop, if you have liquid remedy) in half a glass of water. Stir it and take one tea spoon from it.

I thought it would be Pulsatilla, so I was on the right track. I need to order 200c as I only have 6c, so I will let you know the result next week. Thank you very much xx

Sorry for the delay. computer problems.Last Thursday morning my dog, after drinking water, suddenly vomited everything back up. Just water and some bile. She seemed to feel better in herself after that, but was still not eating.
I gave my dog one dose of Pulsatilla 200 last Friday and within 4 hours she ate a meal all by herself and hasn't stopped since! She's was 100% herself by the next day. Thank you very much for your help.
Is there anything I can give her to keep this from returning or should I just keep a close eye on her after her next season? She is on a raw meat diet, with lots of variation, steamed vegetables and seaweed extract and brewers yeast.
Kind regards xx
