LICORICE

Breed: Cocker Spaniel
Age: 10 yrs. - DECEASED
Problem:  Yeast Infection, Hair loss, Dry skin, Arthritis, Odor

I have a 10-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Licorice (middle of photo) who is very special to me.  Licorice had developed a severe skin problem, which was leathery, sticky, greasy, yeasty, and pungent smelling. He’d lost all the fur on his back and had a load of small growths that looked gross, plus he stunk to the max!   Because of this He got the nickname of Piglet! The really sad part is that Licorice is a registered therapy dog and had to stop working four years prior because his condition. After so many years of this, I was set on putting him down, thinking the poor thing was suffering.

After checking a link for Cocker Spaniels, I posted a letter for the bulletin board.  In the beginning of June 2001, I got an email from a woman that recommended I check out NZYMES.COM.   I read the different stories and thought I would try it.  Surely, I had nothing to lose as it was only $20.  I have already spent THOUSANDS of dollars over the past 7 years. So, I ordered NZYMES® Antioxidant Treats and NZYMES® Ox-E-Drops.  I was really impressed with the fact that if it doesn't make a noticeable difference you get your money back.

I had visitors on the forth day after starting the NZYMES® and everyone went crazy because Licorice’s skin had such a DRASTIC change.  Even the fur was coming back. My Groomer and my Vet saw him after ten days and they couldn’t believe that he was the same dog.

At this point, it has been a total of 24days (Not even 30 days) that I have been giving the NZYMES® Antioxidant Treats and the NZYMES® Ox-E-Drops to my pets and the progress is as follows: He is about 65% more alert.  He was unable to go up stairs at all, going down the steps he had some difficulty and would usually fall down them every other time. Now he runs up and down the stairs like when he was a puppy. Before NZYMES® I couldn’t pick him up or hold him in my arms because he was so stiff and in so much pain he would cry until you put him down.  Now he loves to be held and the stiffness has completely gone away.  The white cloudiness in his eye has gone away.  He has gone for a month without a bath and doesn't stink!  All of his coat has come back and is just as soft and shiny as when he was a puppy.  I had to give him 30mg of Phenobarbital, twice a day, along with a thyroid pill twice a day. I have cut him back to just one a day and hope to discontinue them completely.

However, here is the best part of this story.  STARTING the first of August Licorice will be returning to work as a Therapy Dog and will be training his little brother butter to follow in his foot steps. I am very grateful to Darla for taking the time to email me with the NZYMES® site that saved my baby's life. She has given me my puppy back and I know that Licorice and I will have many more years of enjoyment and pleasure.  Since witnessing these changes, my Groomer and my Veterinarian are both now stocking the products locally. Thank you for such a wonderful product.

Sincerely

This is what my groomer had to say:
Licorice has been coming to my grooming shop since 1998 and has progressively deteriorated over the years. His skin and his ability to walk worsened. The owner discovered the NZYMES® product over the Internet and started giving him the pills.  A few weeks after, he called to tell me of the dramatic change in his skin and agility.  He then brought the dog over to my shop and I couldn’t believe the change. This dog had been so bad off, and it was like a miracle!  I immediately contacted the company and placed an order and I am selling it to my customers with a variety of problems. We are seeing the same success for their pets.

This is what my Veterinarian had to say:  
Licorice had been diagnosed with hypothyroid and had suffered from chronic allergies and ear infections over the last 10 years.  He had constant bacterial and secondary Yeast (Malessezia) dermatitis despite treatment with antibiotics and anti-fungals (oral and topical).  Nothing seemed to help Licorice’s skin, which smelled so bad it was hard to be in the same room with him.  His owner heard about NZYMES® and began using them.  After being on them for two-weeks, he brought Licorice in for me to see how he had improved.  What an improvement we saw!  I could hardly believe it was the same dog.

I am now recommending NZYMES® products for many of my other patients.

Update October 26, 2002 - I wanted to let you know that Licorice passed away on Sunday September 22nd. He had developed Bronchitis that got progressively worse over a three week period. He then became very lethargic. When we went back to the vets on September 18th, one of the new vets there opened his mouth and found that the entire right hand side of his mouth had been all infected with cancer. More than likely this was from the long-term use of steriods for his yeast problem. He progressed down hill very quickly. His breathing got worse and on Saturday and then on Sunday he stopped breathing. And went very peaceful.

Licorice lived 11 very glamorous years. Did every thing and got everything and even had Plastic Surgery twice for the small bumps on his face. He was more fortunate than most humans. He was one of the few that got to dine in the world famous Bal Harbor restaurant where the plates started at one hundred dollars (and that is not the humans plate price). We have been swamped with calls, cards and flowers. His memorial will be held this weekend. There are two 10 foot Leachy nut trees planted for him in our yard. They were a gift from Toni at the VCA animal clinic. He was really special and not because he belonged to me.

I must thank you again for making such a wonderful product, and Darla for her suggesting it to me. This did give me a lot more time to enjoy him, myself along with his two brothers Baci and Butter. Can't thank you enough and will always be faithful takers of NZYMES® and our Ox-E-Drops.
