Sheila,
Try asking at the classic pet homeopath link
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ClassicalHomeopathyPets/
If you post , while waiting for a reply I strongly suggest you check the
files for contacting a classical homeopath that specializes in pets .
######## re:"If this were an adult dog, I might consider that over
vaccination was involved. But this is a young dog "
******** If I remember correctly , my small animal vet said the Canine
immune system is not fully matured before 16 (?) weeks of age. Pumping disease
into an undeveloped IS is very damaging . Add to that the fact that delivery
method of the vacc disease is totally unnatural as viruses are normally
acquired via mucus membranes not subcutaneously or intramuscular . This is a
reason for injection site abscesses and tumors.
Best of luck to you,
~Shirley

that suddenly had swollen joints. He had blood drawn and was checked for
tick born disease as well as for lupus. Other standard blood work was done too
of course.
He tested positive for lupus and not for anything else. He has had an immediate
response to prednisone, the first dose improved his condition.
He is being tapered down after 3 doses of 40 mg. The does will be dropped 10 mg
at a time after about 4 days on each level. The hope is that 10 mg a day or
even every other day will be enough to keep the problem under control. I will
also be seeking holistic methods of dealing with this. I have a vet's name.
My interest is in any info I can get on the genetic connection, if there is
one, and for any holistic treatments that anyone is partial to.
Any human based info will do too, as it is the same problem in both dogs and
humans.

Carolyn,
How wise of you to think of speaking to your friend about your little Corgi.
Fantastic results !!
(always wanted one, we see them a lot at horse shows)
It is well known that over vax compromises the immune system and not only the
Parvo is at fault.
You may find this article of interest ( it is only 9 pages long lol )

This time in or lives is so different from when we acquired our first GSD in
'58.
Cheers from here,

Hi, Shelia, I had a Corgi puppy several years ago with Lupus. At
the time my vets did not know what it was and nothing they did helped.
I called Chuck Kruger, describing the symptoms, etc. , and he
immediately diagnosed it, talked to my vets prescribing treatment,
and the puppy was cured very quickly. Chuck said that it was caused
by over-vaccination (parvo vaccine) BTW, the treatment was Prednesone.
