Dog Tracheal Collapse Linked to Liver Disease: Top Holistic Remedies

Our great pry mix was left on an apartment porch or locked in a crate for the first 3 years of his life. His nails had grown through the pads of his paws. Unfortunately he also was hit by a car a few days after we bought him home, luckily he survived. Since then he's been on gabapentin for the nerve pain in his paws and hips. I put him on milk thistle to try to help keep his liver healthy and cranberry for his kidneys. We've had him for 3 years now, he eats only a homemade diet and treats. His blood work is perfect. I have learned so much from watching your videos. I can never thank you enough.

Thank you for caring and giving the furbaby a wonderful life that it deserves. I wish people would get in trouble for their wrongdoing towards animals and people it amazes me that they don't get on a list, not to have one or the other or both animals or kids (people).

My 12 year old Minpinzu has had tracheal collapse since a puppy. The vets all said that it is normal for the smaller breeds. He didn't start having real problems until a couple years ago. I started him on your CBD oil and it really helps him. The original reason I started him on it is because he suddenly developed anxiety all the time. He's fine now as long as he takes the CBD oil. He is healthy and activity has greatly improved since I started using your ultimate canine supplement several years! He's healthy and acts like a puppy. Thanks for all that you do for our fur babies!

[@ItzNotSamwich]

Does he cough less with CBD? My little guy has had tracheal collapse since he was a puppy as well. He's a chihuahua and only six now and his coughing has significantly increased. I got him slippery elm today to mix with manuka honey (which I've been having a hard time getting him to take) and mixed it with some peanut butter and it has seemed to offer some relief so far. So grateful for Dr. Andrew Jones' videos. I've been thinking of getting him some CBD oil but wasn't sure if it would just make him tired or actually offer him some extra relief. If so, I'll get some for him asap. It's so very hard seeing them struggle...

This is super helpful. I’ve suspected my service dog has had this very problem since 2017 when I brought him home from the service dog school. He literally started coughing like an old man with phlegm while we were at our training. It’s persisted daily for years. I’m going to try some of the suggestions that I’m not already giving him to help his allergies - these things are all certainly not going to hurt and can only help at best. Thanks so much!

Our Cavalier has had occasional windpipe attacks since he was a puppy. I can shorten them by picking him up, gently rubbing his throat and gently distracting him. The struggle to breathe around the contractions really does scare him, and that seems to prolong the attack. Reassuring him seems to shorten the episode. FWIW.

My morkie has tracheal collapse and has been going through testing because she has elevated liver enzymes and protein in her urine. They are testing her for Cushings next but I'm going to bring this up to the vet. I feel they are starting to grasp at straws. I love her vet and don't feel he's doing anything he shouldn't, but maybe he doesn't know this correlation. She already takes milk thistle, but will add other supplements as mentioned.

@@Jane-ez7ylmy Pomeranian has a collapsed trachea (supposedly not very severe from the xray). She is on denamarin now due to recent liver enzyme increase (alkaline phosphate alt and slight increase in ggt). However, we were told the denamarin is just a temporary assistant as it won’t cure or significantly improve anything. We are just on it until we can get her an ultrasound to figure out the cause. They didn’t mention any relation to the trachea, but I am wondering what type of liver disease occurs from collapsed trachea since the internet doesn’t seem to be mentioning that anywhere and he didn’t in the video either.

It's true, although it may not be you and me in particular. 9 times out of 10 it's the puppy mill or back yard breeders fault for producing genetically weak animals. When we rescue dogs and cats we know nothing about their health background or the parent animals that produced them. Then the heartache comes and vet bills galore. I have rescued about thirty dogs and cats in the last three decades and most of them developed heart disease and one had a collapsing trachea. One I have now is immune compromised horrifically. Thank God for Dr. Jones and his holistic approach.

Om-Goodness!... Our dog started honking last summer when we 'briefly' ran the a/c ...I found that when I gently massage his salivary glands, (my thumbs positioned upon his 3rd eye)...it quickly helps to relieve my dog's intermittent cough. Five years ago, the vet warned that he'd probably have issues w/ a collapsed trachea as he aged. He's 5 now. Just 3 days ago... A fluid-like bulge emerged on his inner right knee. I thought it was a new cleanser (I'd used it the day prior)... He has allergies..so I'd just trimmed & bathed him. I'm positive was NOT there one day...and suddenly there the next. I tried amoxicillin (4UTI) & Benadryl... But, rather than subsiding it seems it may 'possibly' be spreading. Could this be Liver Disease? He's been eating IAMS & drinking filtered water for 3 years now ...ever since our cat & dog died suddenly of oral cancer. I'm sure I have curcumin... and can purchase the others. Although I have reservations about forking loads of cash over to someone who only wants to make him ''comfortable''. I have pretty limited funds... Of course, they can't give me a ballpark estimate me how expensive tests will run until they see him. I'm figuring... it's the only way to find out though... Before I purchase the proper herbals! 🤔 THAN'X DOC! ...I feel much better now! ... lol 👏👍👍

Why does Ivermectin work on collapsed trachea? I wish I could send you the before & after X-rays of my dog, the difference is amazing.

Thank you for this. My dog, 13 yo Yorkie-Pom started this tracheal collape cough ( and in extreme heat and/or anxiety same) goose honk. First for her: drench her in cool water and stick her in front of a cool AC. After expensive testing, I deducted tracheal collapse due to Yorkie's leg joint cartilage failure after any trauma. Don't know, but assumed there might be cartilage involved in the patency of the trachea. Will order the Curcumin capsules , because she will not touch the curcumin in any other form.

My ten yr old Chihuahua was diagnosed with tracheal collapse and prescribed a cough syrup which did not help. He was coughing a lot. We couldn't even sleep at night for the coughing. I stopped giving the syrup. Another vet suggested trying Cosequin to strengthen the cartilage in the trachea. It took about a month or so to notice a difference and another three or four months until he was not coughing at all. He is still on it and still doing well. I've had several vets tell me it's not effective but I know it has helped my dog. I would like to know your thoughts on this, Dr. Jones.

My 13yo jackrussell chihuahua mix has tracheal collapse and heart murmur 4/6. Hes been on vetmedin for 10 months and he coughs more with this med… But lately hes been coughing at night. He is now on antitussives and it does nothing for him. I think it made it worse since he coughs ALL night now. He takes gabapentin at night when the coughing is too much and it works for couple hours. Could the antitussive made the condition worse? X rays showed that his heart was not the cause of the coughing and most likely was the collapsed trachea. But it got worse so fast i wonder if it could be related to the collapsed trachea only? I tried slippery elm and curcumin and honey… honestly I wonder if he will make it to his vet appointment next week. Could you talk about how antitussives work and maybe gabapentin also?

We had a chest x-ray of the heart and lungs. Our minpin is coughing and I asked about tracheal collapse. Listening to her heart, the vet said, sounds good. The x-ray revealed a slow growing tumor on the top of her heart and it looks like that is constricting her trachea and he added, blood vessels too. We are giving her Fenben with the hope of the tumor shrinking. He prescribed Hydrocone to keep her comfortable.

My Ryman English Setter has had this since he was a puppy.

I am pretty sure that's what he has. He is 2 years old now. It gets really scary sometimes when he has his attacks, it does sound like a goose honk. It mostly happens when he gets overly excited and is running around jumping, like when we come home. I try to massage his neck to get him to calm down and stop.

Your dog could potentially have a enlarged heart. This will make them cough. My morkie did the same thing, eventually she would faint, she was 12 when this started. Had to euthanized her because there is no cure for am enlarged heart. Best to get a chest xray to actually diagnosis.
