Vitamin B…

Basenji Feeding
  • I think some of you may have read about the problems I have been having with my 17 month old boy, Saba :(. At one of the shows we were at, it was suggested that we give him a Vitamin B supplement, as this does/can reduce anxiety. He is an anxious boy when people go over him on the showring table. I didnt think to ask what doses I should be giving him :o.

    Can anyone give me the doses for a B ??? Also, if anyone has had any success with it helping with stress/anxiety, Id love to hear about it :):):).

  • I'd be interested in learning the dosage as well as whether this will help with other stresses (I'm still working through Luny's separation/aloneness issue).

    Thank you everybody so much! I appreciate all the info. I had some vanilla Breyer's all natural and gave my guy a taste of that... boy does he seem to think that's a great treat! Obviously, though I don't want that to be the only thing I do. I'm going to follow up with our vet on getting a draw for the full thyroid panel at hemopet once next pay check comes through. You were right he was only checked for T4. Thank again basenji forums! I was looking back at pics from when he was younger and weighed more. I think he's always been a bit taller than standard and had a little barrel chest. Used to call him a basenji bouncer at the dog park. He was all about playing with the labs, pits and other big dogs - probably because he knew he could outrun them if they ever got too rough. He's much more about slow walks with me and lap snuggles these days ❤

    @JazzysMom: Funny – Jazzy is my dog that is not in a hurry for food {although treats do exite her}; she doesn't run to the bowl, takes a long time to eat, etc. And she is the one with the weight struggles. I have to watch her intake closely or she chunks up pretty fast. Keoki is our pig. He lives for food, glorious food! He'd stuff himself sick if we let him. Yet he is our leanest dog -- not skinny, but not an ounce of extra fat on him either. You'd think it'd be the opposite, wouldn't you? our house is the opposite. Dash is much slower to eat than Sissy. We have had to become creative to get him to eat quickly so she doesn't end up eating it all.

    @jys1011: We feed the same exact amount! And anything more than 1/4 of a can & the odor can kill us :D :D Oh my C3PO also snarks when he eats!!!! :eek: He sounds like a pig eating slop LOL :D My Topaz is MUCH more refined…licking & chewing very dainty :) :D LOL - HaHaa! I get the message. I'll go from 1/3 to 1/4 can. Last night, Duke was standing on the sofa playing with me when all of the sudden he . . . POOTED! His own poot scared him. He turned around to see what was there - couldn't find anything, but he did alot of sniffing . . . and looked embarrassed! :D
