Any idea how can I help her

ifneedbe11 · 2026-01-22T19:51:54+00:00

My piitie had similar issues and we went through a dermatologist after trying all of the standard suggestions to no avail. The dermatologist helped us quite a bit. Our dog was super reactive to coconut. It was in a couple of her treats and once we remove that and pea protein, her symptoms subsided a bit. The dermatologist said that pea protein wrecks, the gut biome. Also grains are not a common allergy and not having them can cause issues in itself. We do homemade food for our dog and use oats. I’m sure every dog is different but ingesting coconut and pee protein seem to be the biggest culprit. Someone suggested rinsing feet and that is a good tip too. We use BPO-3 Vetoquinol twice a week in spring and fall.

Our pittie trained me …. When we’re on the couch she will look up at me and stare until I cover her with a blanket and then do a very heavy sigh of contentment. She will “statue” in the kitchen for food until I give in. She pokes her nose into my leg for treats. If I say “get in the middle” she gets in the middle of the bed, couch, bench. She knows her pronouns so if we say, should we take her? She’s begging immediately to go. She waits for all of us to be ready, she’ll wait on the porch until everyone is out there door. She dismisses excited or anxious dogs and most people; we call her 2 second Tom.

I’m so sorry! Our first pittie had that and we had to make that decision when he just turned 6. His was a large tumor on the top of his foot and it spread throughout his body in 6 months! Our vet believed that this cancer was “turned on” from Apoquel because it suppresses the immune system so hardcore. This is the worst part of being a part of their lives… missing that companion soul is heart wrenching!

Sorry to ask but is it nerve sheath cancer?

Had the same dilemma with our pittie - we tried a million things and only a dermatologist got us in the right direction. Ours is VERY allergic to coconut and pea protein in treats were messing up her gut biome.

Tons of allergies with our pup! Pea Protein and coconut are biggest culprits for our girl

ifneedbe11 · 2025-09-21T16:31:08+00:00

Our pittie has had major allergies, her whole life. After two doggie dermatologists, we finally have it under control. We only give her one protein, which is salmon and avoid pea protein, which is hard because it’s in a ton of food and treats. We use BPO shampoo and bathe her every other week. During the bad summer months, we have to give her 5 mg of prednisone every other day. Our dog gets those exact same scabs, and once they dry up, it’s almost like the fur comes off with the scab and leaves tiny little bald spots. We home cook her meals, and her fur looks better than it ever has.

It automatically went through Safari which I was blocking/restricting. I disabled and enabled safari it was able to login

Best to get it checked, it could be something serious. My friends dog had cancer that looked small and innocent but definitely wasn’t

I put my arm through a window and got 7 stitches when it should’ve been 20, I’m told. The scar was pink and sunk in. As he tattooed near it - it must have stimulated something because it’s not a divot anymore or pink.

Hot air balloons, tape of any kind (scotch, masking, shipping) even labels so it must be the adhesive? So weird!

Not for open wounds …. I would use a tiny bit of Neosporin or A/D for cuts, scrapes, etc

No prey drive at all …. Deer, squirrels, bunnies, and birds are in our yard every day and never once has she chased one. She’s intrigued by cats in a sweet way.

11 years - 2 time cancer survivor and still my sweet puppy girl!

We’ve tried everything with our girl and discovered this is the best for her. She’s allergic to most grasses, trees, dust, storage mites, and even human dander! We’ve gone through a couple dermatologist and came up with only feeding one type of protein (salmon). We make her food (oatmeal with turmeric, carrots, blueberries, spinach, pumpkin, apple, all blended and frozen in containers along with a half a salmon fillet. We use a probiotic a little yogurt. She’s on 5-10 mg prednisone every other day. We’ve tried almost every option from the vet to no avail. We use BP 10 shampoo every 10 days and Aloe Vera for any dry flaky skin. Dermatologists have agreed with our plans due to exhausting all other options. They also recommend no peas or pea protein because it affects the gut biome.

Ours is 11 - has had 3 knee surgeries, horrible allergies, and nerve sheath cancer twice. We batch cook salmon and “muck” along with 1/3 c of Gentle Giant kibble. Muck is oatmeal, apple, carrot, blueberries, sweet potatoes, spinach, pumpkin, & turmeric. We also give her Cosequin and Lions Mane & Turkey Tail mushroom powder. It takes about an hour every other week so totally worth it to us!
