Beverage restrictions and chf

 Your veterinarian may sometimes recommend that you give your dog distilled water. This will sometimes happen in cases where your dog has a chronic condition such as congestive heart failure. 


Dogs, cats and other pets with chronic conditions like these usually benefit from changes in their diet. Your veterinarian will recommend specific changes in their intake of salt, potassium, phosphorus and other nutrients if they have congestive heart failure. 


Dogs with congestive heart failure tend to retain water, sodium and chloride. Diuretics are often given to dogs with congestive heart failure in order to remove fluid build up around the heart. This alleviates pressure on the heart.


However, if your dog is drinking water that contributes to higher levels of sodium and chloride your veterinarian may recommend that you switch to distilled water. Giving your dog drinking water that's low in sodium should be done along with putting your dog on a diet that is low in salt  (sodium chloride).

Preventing weak muscles in dogs

  There are several reasons why people might want to obtain muscle support for dogs. This may be necessary for dogs as they grow older and a contributing factor to muscle deterioration is that they tend to exercise less than a puppy would.


Dogs that work in specific fields also need to stay in peak condition. For example, dogs in the police force or private security companies need to always be ready for potentially strenuous physical activities.


It's important for you to supply your dogs with sufficient amounts of protein each day. Their veterinarian can recommend the quantity that's appropriate for their breed, age and working conditions.

Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants also help to support healthy muscle tissue. Some supplements also contain plant-based sources of protein such as kelp which are rich in amino acids.

Can cats eat blackberries?

  Cats can eat a wide variety of fruits. Feeding your cat foods such as cranberries will not harm them.


Overall, it's important to note that cats do not require fruits. While fruits are beneficial to cats, your cat can get all of their essential nutrients from protein.


You can feed your cat foods such as blackberries, cranberries, blueberries and raspberries. Fruits can be choking hazards if the portions are too large, so you should always give portions that are small enough for your cat to chew easily.

Digoxin supplement interactions

   Hawthorn should not be given to dogs that are currently taking digoxin. Digoxin is sometimes prescribed to dogs that have congestive heart failure.


While hawthorn can be helpful in cases where a dog has mild to moderate congestive heart failure it should not be used if a dog is currently taking digoxin. Hawthorne interacts with digoxin, so it increases the availability of digoxin in your dog's blood. This can lead to digoxin toxicity.
