Wart-like growth on dog’s flank

Hi Susan,
The photos you submitted show what appear to be a cyst or adenoma. These growths are benign, like warts, and are usually very slow growing.

Surgical removal will cause her body to develop more. Therefore, these are best treated by:

1. HOMEOPATHY-The constitutional remedy for her.

2. NO more vaccinations (over vaccinations usually cause these growths to appear in the first place)

3. Improvement in Diet–See our page on 10 Best Dog Food options and consider a RAW dog food diet! Regardless, NO more dry dog food.

4. Take her to a holistic veterinarian for an intake to diagnose her ‘constitutional’ homeopathic remedy.

Another resource for vets knowledgeable in homeopathy is AVH.org.

Take care,
Dr. Carol Jean Tillman
