{  Poor Brutus!}  I always want to cry whenever I think back of our then six-year-old cat’s life.  Dr. Frick told us that weighing 20 pounds was 8 to 9 pounds over the normal.  Animal Joint Pain

Two years ago, our previous vet diagnosed Brutus of having diabetes and started treating him with 6 units of insulin twice a daily.    Our former vet had us feeding Brutus a special dry food for diabetic cats. 

Then my friend shared with me that her sister-in-law took her dog to a credible veterinarian and was impressed with the outcome.  Discovering Dr. Ava Frick’s clinic was a blessing to us. 

Brutus had flaky dandruff coming off and his fur was deadening when we took him to Dr. Frick forthe first time.    He drank an excessive amount of water each day, and urinated 10-12 times daily.  He appeared to be starving most of the time and beg for food like a dog.    He was also very cranky and never wanted to be around the family any longer 

We took Brutus to Dr. Frick’s clinic for about a week, ran some tests on him, and she explained the serious concerns regarding his blood sugar levels, which were found to be like a rollercoaster.    They were like a rollercoaster.   Animal Pain Relief

Dr. Frick performed an experiment on Brutus by taking him off the insulin for a short while and reintroduced it.  She revolutionized his diet to a canned, low-carb food, and started on a routine of 2 units of insulin every 12 hours. 

  It only took two days for his blood sugar levels to return to normal.  Furthermore, his overweening thirst and urination ended. 

We closely monitor and test Brutus’ blood glucose levels at home 2 to 3 times everyday until Dr. Frick advised that it is time to take Brutus off from insulin after about three months on his new diet and dosage of insulin.  He was able to discard almost five pounds, regained his normal luster of his coat, goes to his litter box three or four times everyday.  Craving for food became a thing in the past and his grouchiness returned to his old and loving personality.  Animal Chiropractic
