my Gabby is doing great. Growing so well. When we got her she was 7 weeks and 3 days old weighing 10 lbs. She is 12 weeks weighing 24 lbs. in 5 weeks she has gained 14 lbs.
I have been feeding the honest kitchen brand grain free chicken with goat milk. I plan to switch her over to a raw diet Sunday.
My question she received her third shots today. The vet is recommending parovirus vaccination along with leptospirosis vaccination. And heartworm treatment. I have read vets today may be over vaccinated animals. And this could lead to health problems later in life. Which is why I plan to change her diet to raw. I would appreciate comments suggestion or advice. She gave me medicine to place on her to protect or prevent fleas. I chose not to use it; cause I read applying coconut oil to the coat will prevent fleas. Which I brush her daily and apply coconut oil weekly. She has been tested twice and no fleas. I have also read if give pets diachotomous earth once a day for a month will prevent a lot of the worm parasite problems. Again thoughts on this?
