A Great Dane with aspiration pneumonia, sent home because there was nothing more the clinic could do. His family tried one more thing that night, and kept notes.
This is Caesar's story the way his family told it, from the vet's goodbye to the morning that changed everything.
Caesar was a nine-month-old Great Dane, in for a routine neuter. He came home from the surgery and, within days, developed a severe case of aspiration pneumonia.
Over the next week his vet tried every antibiotic he had. Nothing worked. He explained that Caesar had an underlying immune problem that wouldn't let his body fight the infection, and, being honest, that he had done all he could. Caesar's family brought him home to spend what they were told would be his final hours.
Not ready to quit, Caesar's dad called Linda Arndt, the well-known "Great Dane Lady," who told him not to lose hope and pointed him to Ox-E Drops, breathed in from a vaporizer or a pan of steaming water. He drove 45 minutes that Saturday night to buy some from another owner's supply.
Caesar looked like he was fading. He wouldn't walk, eat, or drink. They added half a teaspoon of Ox-E Drops to steaming water and let him breathe the vapor for ten minutes, every hour, all night long. They also mixed a few drops in water and used a syringe along his teeth-line so he'd take it by mouth.
Sunday morning brought the first sign: Caesar got up on his own and walked outside to do his business. On Monday his family brought him back to the vet, who was frankly surprised to see him at all, and asked to know more about Ox-E Drops.
New X-rays showed the front of his lungs starting to look better, and his fever was gone. Within a week Caesar was up and playing, eating and drinking normally, on his way to a full comeback.
Caesar's story, shared by his family in 2016.
Caesar's was one of our earliest respiratory success stories with Ox-E Drops, back in 2016. It became the blueprint for what we first called the Healthy Respiratory Program, and what is now the Breathe Easy Program, with the Breathe Easy Bundle at its heart. Thousands of dogs with breathing trouble have been helped since.
Caesar's family used Ox-E Drops alone in 2016. Today the Breathe Easy Bundle pairs the drops with Antioxidant Treats, a free oral syringe, and the interactive guide.
Without Ox-E Drops, I honestly believe
Caesar would not be alive today.
“Just so everyone knows: this is for real. You can request my number from Biopet and call me at home, day or night.”
A week after he was sent home to die, Caesar was up playing, eating and drinking normally, on his way to a full comeback. His family leaned on their vet the whole way and supported his body at the same time, through the worst of it and out the other side.
The same small family team that stood behind Caesar's case is here for a free consultation. Tell us what's going on with your dog's breathing, what your vet said, and how long it's been. We were built for the cases nobody else takes.

Caesar's family used Ox-E Drops in a vaporizer and by syringe. Today those same drops, plus the daily Treats and a free oral syringe, come together in one Breathe Easy Bundle, so you don't have to piece it together yourself.
Every order comes with our 120-Day Worry-Free Guarantee, the same free customer care that stood behind Caesar, and formulas built on over twenty-five years of work, support for your dog's own immune system, inside and breathed in.
Caesar's story is shared with his family's permission. It's one dog's experience, not a guaranteed result and not a substitute for veterinary care. Nzymes products are nutrition that supports your dog's own immune system, not a treatment for aspiration pneumonia or any disease. Every dog is different and individual results may vary.
