{  Poor Brutus!}    When I think back to what life was like for our then-six-year-old cat, I just want to cry.  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 two times a day.  Our old vet told us to feed Brutus with special dry food for diabetic cats. 

Then my friend told me 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 used to  take in excessive amount of water and urinate 10-12 times daily.  He appeared to be starving most of the time and beg for food like a dog.  His personality altered to a grouchy character and did not want to stay longer with the family anymore. 

  We checked Brutus into Dr. Frick’s clinic for about a week while she rank tests and, as she explained to us, the were some serious concerns with his blood sugar levels.  It goes up and down endlessly.  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. 

In just a period of two days, his blood sugar levels returned to normal.  Also, his excessive thirst and urination stopped. 

Now, nearly a year later, Brutus has changed so much.  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
