I forgot one very important thing to keep on hand besides colloidal sliver, a nebulizer, hydrogen peroxide (food grade is probably best but all I had was OTC years ago when I had a chronic cough and the hydrogen peroxide in the nebulizer took care of it), garlic is great as an antibiotic, but the one herb I can't do without is cayenne pepper.
I have saved 6 animals from bleeding to death by giving this herb orally. I never knew how it worked for years until I read it keeps you from bleeding out. One time I had an Anatolian who at 8 years old, had a massive breast cancer and the vet said he got all he could. She was swaddled tightly but could not stop bleeding. I asked the vet to wait and I'd be right back. Went to the grocery store, bought some cayenne pepper, went back to the vet, got a 6cc syringe, put quite a bit of cayenne pepper and then water in it, straddled the 140 lb dog, held her head level so it wouldn't go into her lungs, shook the cayenne well, then drenched her at the back of her mouth. She spit for 30 minutes but I was able to pick her up the next day and take her home. Long story short, she lived 6 more years. My Pit? dog got into a fight with a wild hog/s a week ago. She had slashes all over and around her neck and one deep wound that apparently had a cut artery on her top right shoulder, and she was staggering. I sprayed all the wounds that were open with colloidal silver, then gave her some colloidal silver to drink, which she did. Then I poured a capsule of cayenne pepper and poured it on the shoulder wound. It slowed the bleeding but didn't stop it. I got out the sliced ham and rolled up a cayenne (Nature's Way 40,000IU capsule), in it. It took two tries because she had difficulty opening her mouth but it totally stopped the bleeding in minutes. I would have taken her to the vet if I thought it would help but at that point, that would have been far more stressful. By the next day, all of the slashes were as though they had never happened! I did take her to the vet several days later who suggested I leave her for a few days for her shoulder wound was 2" deeper than he thought and it needed to be flushed. BTW, over a year ago this dog had two 5% dextrose/95% saline injections, and then one repeat about a month later. I'd taken her to a vet because she had trouble walking. An X-ray showed it was bad arthritis in her hips. She is on the scale of 10 now! Dr. Gerhauser told about this. It's called Prolotherapy. This causes stem cells on demand. Jean
