Hope so, too....
But he must be so carefull with all the things he want to eat...
But he learned now: all I give to him is ok and he don't want to take food from jenny....

If you do a google search there is a wealth of information out there.

Sorry, I don't know anything about herpes in the mouth, but only the respiratory system where I think interferon is sometimes used to try to boost the immune system. Is that what he had? As for the cream, if you are concerned, have you tried a teaspoon of plain natural yoghurt instead to see if he likes that? Is the idea to sooth his mouth before he eats? Poor Goldy, I hope his pills and injections help him. It's such a difficult thing to control - I have always been told that stress makes herpes worse so you also have to try to see that he is kept as unstressed as possible. Good luck

Hi to all,
maybe someone of you knows a little more then me:
Goldy ( 10 years old ) has a problem:
He has herpes virus in his mouth and jaws... So he can't eat sometimes his food.
We where at the vet now very often and 2 weeks ago he get every 2 days 2 injections. No he must get every 5 days a pill.... But I think that this don't really work.... He has problems and the only one the vet told me : I can give him before his food a little ice or cream... He like the cream but I think it can't be sooooooooooo good if he get evry day cream before food....
Knows some one of you more about this problem???
