Are you a nutritionist that has experience with Kidney Disease and Congestive Heart Failure?


Are you a nutritionist that has experience with Kidney Disease and Congestive Heart Failure?Hi, I'm looking for a nutritionist that might be able to speak with me about a diet for my dog. He has stage three chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure, and his last visit to the vet shows his kidneys getting worse despite our efforts to reduce salt and protein from his diet. We did get in contact with a nutritionist but she wanted $ 250 just to consult with us. We're hesitant to do this because we fear she'll just tell us to reduce salt and protein and stop giving him dog food which he hasn't eaten in over two years anyone. It's frustrating to have to hand over this amount of money when we're not given any information on what the consultation will entail. If you're a nutritionist, especially is you have any experience with these health problems and dogs any advice would be helpful. Our dog is a peek-a-poo, 15.5 years old, and his kidney numbers were 83 and 3.3 at his last visit. Again, any advice is appreciated.

I am not an animal specialist neither a medical doctor. But I've had a heart failure myself 4 years ago. To improve function of my heart I am taking 200 mg. of CQ 10 daily. I've heard something that initially it came from trails in veterinarian clinics. Just my two cents. Make some research. It might help.
