Hi
my 5 yr old TT is having a phantom , she has milk but is not showing any other symthoms , can anyone recommend a remedy to dry up milk ,  she  had not had a phantom before or ever been mated any advice greatly appreciated

thanks

not sure if its the done thing or not.. but i was told a little parsley in their food. I have used the dried stuff with a little hot water to freshen things up, I had a Dobermann bitch who milked up heavily and within 2 days she had almost dried up completly.. worth a shot either way!

Cut back on her food, not too much protein, and up her exercise to help her get rid of it naturally.

Raspberry Leaf tablets
A licensed herbal medicine for the symptomatic relief of problems associated with whelping and kittening and an aid in the prevention of pseudo-pregnancy in dogs and cats. Raspberry Leaf herb tones and strengthens smooth muscle such as the uterus and bladder; because of this it helps to ensure an easy and straightforward delivery and has been known as a birth aid for hundreds of years. Over the 60 years we have been producing this tablet we have reports of many bitches and queens who having experienced problems with delivery in the past, having subsequently had normal easy births with the aid of this tablet. For pregnant females the appropriate dosage for their weight should be given from the third week of gestation until one week after delivery, as this helps ensure complete expulsion of the placentas. Due to its toning quality it has recently been found that this tablet is also helpful for bitches suffering from leaking bladders, which can occur as they get older or sometimes following spaying or other surgery. Raspberry Leaf tablets are effective in the prevention of phantom pregnancy also and bitches who are prone to this condition should be given the recommended higher dose from the first sign of coming into season and this should be continued for 12 weeks as a preventative measure. The uncoated tablets may be crushed for easy administration to cats and the smaller breeds of dog.

Cutting back her food would also be a great place to start.
