{Poor Brutus!} I always frieve whenever I recall our then six-year-old cat’s life. He weighed about 20 pounds, which Dr. Frick told us was 8 to 9 pounds too many. Canine Paralysis
Two years prior, our vet where we used to live diagnosed Brutus with diabetes, and we had been giving him 6 units of insulin two times each day. Our former vet had us feeding Brutus a special dry food for diabetic cats.
Then my friend told me me that her sister-in-law took her dog to a credible veterinarian and was impressed with the outcome. Discovering Dr. Ava Frick’s clinic was a blessing to us.
Brutus had flaky dandruff coming off and his fur was deadening when we took him to Dr. Frick forthe first time. He used to take in excessive amount of water and urinate 10-12 times daily. He appeared to be starving most of the time and beg for food like a dog. He became grouchy and did not want to stay longer with the family anymore.
We took Brutus to Dr. Frick’s clinic for about a week, ran some tests on him, and she explained the serious concerns regarding his blood sugar levels, which were found to be like a rollercoaster. They keep on fluctuating. Animal Pain Relief
Dr. Frick performed an experiment on Brutus by taking him off the insulin for a short while and reintroduced it. She revolutionized his diet to a canned, low-carb food, and started on a routine of 2 units of insulin every 12 hours.
His blood sugar levels returned to normal in just a period of two days. Also, his excessive thirst and urination stopped.
We kept an eye in testing Brutus’ blood glucose levels at home 2 to 3 times everyday until Dr. Frick told us that it is time to take Brutus off from insulin after about three months on his new diet and dosage of insulin. He got rid of almost five pounds, recovered his normal luster of his coat, goes to his litter box three or four times everyday. Craving for food became a thing in the past and his grouchiness returned to his old and loving personality. Animal Chiropractic
