    My dog has liver disease
    My dog who is 11/12 years old (GSD) has been diagnosed with Liver Disease - we are trying to treat her symptons (excessive thirst and weeing) with drugs but so far nothing helps - has anyone got any magic solution - it seems to be getting worse and the vet doesn't seem to know what to do next.

    Of course he knows what to do next. There is no cure for your dog's liver disease, it is terminal. All you can do is make sure he/she is as comfortable as possible.

    My dog had liver disease for 5 years before he finally gave in. This is a treatment from a vet in LA. Give him milk thistle liquid approx o.5ml in each meal every day you can get this from holland and barratt. Food wise I put my dog on cooked chicken or fish, rice, sweet potato. Make enough for four small melas per day and do not feed him AT ALL after 7pm. Limit treats and no humand treats that are difficult to digest. That's all I can suggest
