Hello. Don't worry about anything your vet said. Take charge of your dog's health back in your hands. No need to panic regarding the heartworms. They are not as deadly as vets and drug companies make them to be.

Anyways, go to your health store and get:-

1. Black Walnut Hull Tincture (LIQUID bottle)

Dosage :- 10 drops in the morning and 10 in the evening. Give him this 1st thing on an EMPTY STOMACH.

2. Wormwood Tincture (LIQUID bottle)

Dosage :- 10 drops in the morning and 10 in the evening. Give him this 1st thing on an EMPTY STOMACH.

Follow this regimen for next 4-5 months and THEN get him re-tested for hw and he will come out negative!

For your dog, either you can force them in his mouth with the syringe or mix with some food. But make sure he gets all the dosage Therefore, opening his mouth and force feeding is the best way to go for maximum benefit and fast recovery.

Its imp. with herbs you give them 1st thing in the morning on an empty stomach (no food before or after atleast for 1 hr) coz this allows the herbs to do their work in the body with any interference.

Also, immediately start him on daily garlic regimen. You can give him fresh 3-4 garlic cloves.

For deworming him, also start him on ground cloves or if he will eat, just give him 1 clove each day.

Give him healthy diet as he needs to build his body and support his health. The best thing is homemade diet with coconut oil on top (3-4 BIG tablespoons each day). Will also help his coat and skin and joint health. Help detox the body as well.

For his liver health, start him on Dandelion Root or Dandelion Root Tea everyday!!!!

Last but not least, no need to get him any more vaccinations, shots, antibiotics, hw 'preventive', steriods etc!!!!! Save your money and you will save lots of headache and money down the road as well. These things are BAD for your dogs unlike what the vets and pharma-companies advertise!!!!!

I have 5 SHELTER dogs and have no issues with them coz they eat homemade diet with co oil and all the above! Good luck!

I am working with a person who uses homeopathic medicine on animals. She has been doing homeopathy for over 30 years. She has suggested that I don't give the heartworm medication and instead give my 110 pound lab/newfie mix Co-Q-10. She said one 100mg pill a day will protect her from heartworm. She said she has been recommending this for 20 years and has never had anyone say that their dog got heartworm.

JR --- I have a 40 lb Shepherd Timber Wolf Hybrid mix and a 15 lb or so Australian Shepherd (miniature)... Can you let me know with no liability to you, what is recomended for each of these dogs for the CoQ10 please?

Thank you.

PS Kevin Trudeau - Natural Cures they dont want you to know about is amazing... Everyone should read the "REVEALED" one or all.... very informative...

I took my Scotty to the vet yesterday because he was crying constantly, scooting his bottom, scratching and chewing his feet. The vet told be that he had thrown his back out and put him on previcox, tramadol and methocarbamol. After a $1,000 estimate, the vet said it was unlikely that he had worms, but this morning I checked his stool and there was a whitish thing about an inch long and 1/4 inch wide.

A few days ago I gave him a few drops of black walnut tincture in his food and water. Could he have thrown his back out from chewing and could the BWT be expelling worms? I brought a stool sample to the vet with me and they didn't even check it. Can I continue the BWT with the meds he was prescribed yesterday? Any comments would be greatly appreciated!

I just rescued a doxie from death row, she has heart worm and a respiratory infection that is wicked. She can't do traditional heartworm therapy because it is likely to kill her in her present condition and age of 10. I have read through the previous posts and still feel insecure about taking this on myself. How much of the herbs would I feed to a 10 lb er anyway? Thank you, JJ

I have a 12 year old long haired chihuahua and he has a bad cough and I think it is heartworms... I called a vet and the first thing he asked was if I could afford the treatment... I need help.. I need to know how much to give him of the black walnut and wormwood and garlic... He weighs 7pounds and I also have three other dogs as well... Do I treat them also? I dont want to treat them if they arent infected... Please I need some help.. dont want my baby to die..

I'm not sure if anyone has tried this but I went to nutritionist a few days ago because my 2 dogs have heartworms and he gave me the Black Walnut, WormWood and Garlic to give them, but he also suggested I give them something called "Hanna's Herb Shop - Dog Heartworm Caina Philaria. " It is a homeopathic med that actually kills the heartworms. He said I can give it along with the BWH/WW/G.

I called the company for Hanna's Herb Shop to get info on it and they said it will kill the heartworm in about a month or so. Here is the site for it... http://www.hannasherbshop.com/shop/pets/supplements/dog-heartworm-caina-philaria-para-vibropathictm.html You might be able to get it at your local health food or nutrition store. I am also following Bandit's program to use the BWH/WW/G... http://www.banditsbuddies.com/faqs.shtml I hope this helps anyone trying to use it. I will repost when I find out how my dogs are doing from it.

I read the comments and I am encouraged. My 7 year old rottweiler was diagnosed with lekumia or some sort of tumor. We were devastated. The vet wanted to put her down, but we took her back home and begin to give her geritol and a multivitamin. She is lethargic and wont eat, but gets up to urinate and lays back down. We are going to try the black walnut hull. Is the extract ok with the geritol and vitamins?

My Pointer is 12 yrs old and had all the signs of heartworms. He barely had any energy he would have big coughing fits and could only go on a 1/2 block walk before he would just stop and nothing could budge him to get home. I did some reading online and saw the types of treatments vets were using to treat heartworms and it seemed all chemicals which might cure or kill your dog and expensive.

So I did some research and ordered the black walnut hull/ wormwood extract, I found out later reading ingredients that it also contains cloves. So from a 2oz. bottle I give him 1 dropper full in his dinner every night. Also want to add that the type I am giving him contains alcohol. Within 2 weeks my dog did a full turn around and was back to his normal self. The recommended dose on the bottle is 2 dropper fulls so my dog weighs about 65lbs. I decided 1 was probably ok to start with. If your waiting to see if this treatment works for other ppl you should instead be getting this stuff for your dog. I am here to tell you it did work for us, my best friend was on deaths door and now we both feel alot better. I also give him 2 garlic pills a day. One thing I want to mention was feeding in the food as my dog wouldn't touch the water for 3 days when I tried putting it in there.

I have been reading all this on heartworms.. I hve a white husky that is very sick with heartworms. I am not so sure he is going to make it. I took him to the vet yesterday and the treatment was going to be almost 900.00 I cannot afford the first treatment so she said the second which consist of using the pills. Ageet has lost weight and has been having seizures. :( The vet gave him at the office 1 prednisone and 1 doxycycline. After I got him home within a hour he went down hill fast. He has been out of it and had multiple seizures. I have not and will not give him anymore of this medicine. I did go and buy him the garlic, cloves, blck walnut and woodworm. This morning he came to enough to drink the water and eat a small amount of food with the clove, black walnut and woodworm in it. I do not know maybe he's in too late of the stages. The medication the vet gave him I believe just about did him in. Before the meds. He was eating and alert, he still had a seizure but pulled out of it and return to his old self. If anyone could help me with him PLEASE RESPOND... Thank you

My dog had heartworms. Now there gone. Used heartworm powder (1 and 2 together) on her food everyday. Adjust if not eating it, or diarhea occurs. Look up Paw Healer.com or any chinese medicine used to kill worms in the body, then dispell them out. It took about 6 months, but they don't have to be confined and the herbs are good for them. It was about $200.00 in all over the time frame, or there about. No chemicals or harsh side effects. Order it and get your dog right on it, is my opinion. It worked for mine. R

Did the Bandit Heartworm Protocol work for your dogs? Also, the Hanna's Herb Shop - Dog Heartworm Caina Philaria, what amount did you give to your dog based off the size?

Thank you!
