I would like to share with you a story about Elliot, a friend's dog.
Elliot didn't have an easy life. He had several owners and at some point was "on his own". A vet finally found him and took care of him for a while.
But Elliot already had chronic symptoms like: losing weight, loss of appetite, "feeling down", hardly moving around, throwing up, teary eyes, and diarrhea.
He finally found his way to my friend here in California from Arizona through a rescue program. This happened in September of 2007.
No matter what we did, Elliot's condition wouldn't change; plus he was still on "survival mode," eating whatever he would find on the ground, from toads to wood chips and rotten mice instead of eating his food.
We took him to another vet but he couldn't find anything wrong with him. My friend started to lose faith and thought about giving him up.
That's when I decided to put him on The AIM Program in February of 2008. About a week before he went on the program he had eaten a toad and felt terribly sick; and in that week he was able to throw up the remnants of the toad!
He is not in "survival mode" anymore, he eats his food, plays around, is very energetic, loving, people friendly, playful, listens, doesn't have the need to run away anymore, knows his home, and he is an absolutely great runner. His eyes are pretty much back to normal. He also started to gain weight. Before you could count ribs and each and every vertebra.
I feel that we have saved this dog's life.
I'm on The AIM Program myself; and it's amazing to see how quick an animal can self-heal. That is inspiring to me!
