Dermcare Malaseb Medicated Shampoo

issue and our furry friend died a week later of kidney failure despite IV treatment. They never thought to rinse him off even just to make sure there was no residue. Some vets believe this product is risk free when it clearly is far from that. I curse the day I ever saw this product.
Petz Park Joint & Hip Supplements
Hi Geoff Max (Kelpie) has been extremely energetic after being on the Hip & Joint since we introduced it into his meals. Initially, it took about 6… Read more
to 7 weeks before we noticed any difference in his behaviour - It was a big change for all of us, especially Max.
Now that winter has set in, we have noticed a very slight decline in his performance after an energetic regime, i.e. chasing and retrieving his tennis ball, he'll sometimes limp a few times and favours his left side. Although Max is not a young dog now, 10 years old, he's a very spontaneous dog and his vet check-ups, etc, have all been on track apart from a little weight gain from spoiling him.
To aid in his comfort, as we've done for all our pets, we have his kennel on our back covered decking, out of extreme weather conditions and wind. We often change his bedroom linen, mattress and artificial grass flooring after a good wash and shampoo.
With this type of care, we have experienced an enjoyable journey and a bond with all our four-legged family members over the years, only to be heartbroken when those unfortunate internal failures become us all with age.

Killed our little Aussie Terrier – Very similar story to the guy who lost his Boxer. We were told there was a shot that could stop her itching, and that it was safe, but it turned out… Read more
quite the opposite. Shortly after receiving it her behaviour changed dramatically, lost all her zest for life, became lethargic, didn't want to walk, lost her appetite, starting licking dirt and stones and then her back legs started to get weak and wobbly and then she had a seizure. She was only 4 yrs old and full of zing and vigour before the shot. We took her to a neurologist, she had an MRI scan and all the other relevant tests and they could not find a diagnosis for her. She was put on a dose of antibiotics and prednisolone, but to no avail, she died a few weeks later. We are certain it was Cytopoint that killed her.

Be observant! My boy is almost 10 years old and had become a little stiff, so our vet recommended trying Epiitalis Forte because he is allergic to… Read more
fish-based products. We were told it had “amazing success.”
I was hesitant from the start because my dog was permanently neurologically disabled after taking NexGard years ago, so I am extremely careful with anything I give him. I always introduce new products slowly and monitor him closely.
Recently, we installed custom floor runners throughout our house and the improvement was incredible. Despite his ataxia, he had stopped slipping, was walking more confidently and moving around far more.
The ONLY thing that changed was starting Epiitalis Forte.
Shortly after starting it, he began developing weakness in his left hind leg. It progressed to the point where the leg was collapsing underneath him and he was falling onto his side every few steps. He also began excessive lip licking.
In total, he only received:
* Four doses of 0.5ml * One dose of 1ml (he weighs 40kg)
I stopped the product immediately because the collapsing had become severe and frequent.
Within 24 hours of stopping it, the collapsing and falling reduced significantly.
For my dog, I am certain this product caused the worsening weakness and collapsing. Nothing else has changed. He is on a strict consistent diet.
After everything he has already been through neurologically, I am devastated that I did not research more thoroughly beforehand and read the many similar reviews from other owners first.
Please monitor your dogs extremely carefully with any new supplement, especially dogs with neurological or mobility issues.
What a waste of money.
4CYTE Epiitalis Forte Gel for Dogs
Following a recommendation from the vet we started our 9 year old Frenchie on the 4cyte gel. The results have been impressive, no more walking around… Read more
like 'an old man' He also had issues with his left back leg that would regularly spasm. This seems to have calmed down. Please do your research on where to purchase this. Purchasing ours from reputable on line market place stores where the gel is pretty much half the price of what the pet stores want.
Jurox Amacin Eye and Ear Ointment
It worked for two dogs 4 years apart - the same tube – Four years ago when my dog went blind due to Cushings, the vet sold me a tube of Amacin to put in the eye, as my dog couldn't blink properly, to act… Read more
as 'tears' and relieve the grittiness.
Four years later when my latest dog kept shaking his head hard, the vet gave me an ear product which did no good.
I still had 1/4 tube of Amacin from 4 years previously, and tried that - it worked, and Hugo stopped shaking his head, and the problem cleared up.
Making a difference – I had noticed my 14 year old Birman cat behaving less Top Cat and more victim when it came to being bullied by her similar aged brother. She was… Read more
sleeping more and seemed to be anxious. Plug in pheromones weren't working so I tried Joint Supplement for her because I wondered if she was showing signs of early arthritis. Within a week she was a happier and more confident kitty. Highly recommended.

fireworks are a nightmare for him. I sprayed his bedding and about 4 sprays on his collar, he didn’t shake at all. He was very slightly unsettled and knew something was not right but he was not affected at all. I will always have some on hand and highly recommend this product, would not be without it.

daily routine, and so far he seems a little more relaxed and settled. I like that it feels like a gentle support rather than something too heavy. Still early days, but I’m happy with it so far and will keep using it to see how he goes.

applied way too much and the budgie swallowed some and died two days later. I don't blame the product as I used more than was recommended.
Have tried many things over the years and thought I noticed an improvement in my Toy Cavoodle's anxiety particularly during storms, unfortunately it was short lived. Hopefully it may help other breeds.
This stuff is fantastic. Really works well! – My dog gets really bad cracked paw pads and itchy feet. He is constantly chewing and licking them. I've tried all different types of products but… Read more
nothing works as quickly as Dr Zoo's made by MooGoo. It really moisturises and smooths his paw pads and stocks him itching at them as much. He licks off whatever i put on them regardless but this stuff is "totally lickable"anyway and it penetrates the skin really fast. It has great natural ingredients and is definitely worth the $12.50 for a small tub because a little goes a long way.

HomeoPet Travel Anxiety
Homeopet Travel Anxiety Drops – Recently my family travelled interstate by car with a 6 month old puppy. Our poor boy was very prone to car sickness so we bought a few natural… Read more
remedies (including the Homeopet Travel Anxiety) to see if we could calm him and help prevent his vomiting. Unfortunately, the drops didn't really do much to help with the vomiting except to perhaps delay it for a few minutes. Our vet had told us about a well known product to prevent and treat nausea we could purchase from over the counter at the pharmacy, so that's what we ended up doing. Our boy only needed a very small dose and within a few days we were able to stop treatment. I wasn't keen on giving him medicine but we did a lot of travel and it was more important to keep him comfortable. Unfortunately I don't recommend this product.
Aristopet Stop Itch for Dogs & Cats
Dreadful product – I tried this product for my dog who has a problem skin and followed the instructions to the letter and her skin got worse and worse. It irritated her problem and I would never recommend it.
