As you will discover the more you read the CS posts, there are many knowledgeable people on this list. And I think that many people will be interested in exploring the issues that you raise. In answer to your general question about feeding animals CS: Many people, including myself, simply fill the animal's bowl with 5 to 12 PPM (part per million) Colloidal Silver. The animals drink it *instead* of water. This is a preventive measure. It's even more important, if the animal is sick, to replace all water with CS--that is, unless the animal has too many detox reactions too quickly. In a human, a detox response can include fatigue, headache, nausea and even vomiting, and discharges through the skin. The animal experts on this list will know more than I what constitutes a detox reaction in a dog. The age of the animal shouldn't make a difference in whether you feed it Cs--though again, it's best to monitor the animal and see how it behaves. You ask about a Beta. I'm not familiar with this term, so can't make any suggestions. As for fish--I have no idea! I tend to think not, but perhaps someone else has had experience with this. Why are you giving your 12-year-old German Shepherd flax oil? You say that he vomits it. Perhaps he isn't digesting fats very well and is lacking the enzyme lipase. If it were my dog, I'd be feeding him Wobenzymes, an enzyme supplement that comes from Europe and that in Germany, outsells all the allopathic anti-inflammatory medications combined because it works so well, naturally. You also say that your Shepherd eats wet food. Is this homemade, or from a commercial dog company? Most commercial dog and cat foods contain the flesh, fur and feathers of euthanized animals, as well as indigestible high-cellulose fiber hulls from grain hulled in grain mills. There are a number of BARFers on this list (including myself) -- people who BARF their dogs. In this case, BARF doesn't mean vomit, but rather Bones And Raw Food or Bio-Active Raw Food. I feed my 11-year-old and 8-year-old dogs raw foods, as close to what their ancestors eat in the wild, and my animal friends have never been healthier. You might want to research the work of Ian Billinghurst on the internet. Good luck with your pets, and don't be shy about asking questions on the list. There are many people in all stages of learning here, and we're all glad to help each other. Regards, Nina Silver -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
