  1. Yes, that was the beginning of all the gastro issues with Beau many months ago. I hope your pups just have gurgly stomachs-nothing more.
  2. YAY! May this be the start of many good days/months/years!
  3. I have never heard of that. Please PM me your phone number. I have some ideas. z/d is a predigest protein. For lack of better description, it tricks the body - so the system doesn't recognize it as a protein, therefore, very unlikely he's allergic to it. Here is an email from the HEad of nutrition @ UPENN about the food options for dogs like ours and the differences. "I have sent a detailed summary of our conversation to Dr. Longo and let her know my thoughts about potentially trying the Royal Canin HP and Nestle-Purina HA diets as an alternative to the z/d ultra (I have summarized some of the nutritional information about these diets below for you as well). 1. HP seems to be the most palatable but it is the highest in fat, 328 kcal/cup, 41% kcal from fat 2. HA has the least fat and 25% of the fat is MCT oil, 311 kcal/cup, 24% kcal from fat 3. z/d ultra has been know to cause loose stools in dogs with no known GI disease and our dermatologists worry that some chicken allergic dogs react to it, also it is the lowest kcal food but not the lowest in fat, 254 kcal/cup, 30% kcal from fat" I will call you Friday. Don't dispair. We will get this. Been there. I know how scary, frustrating and angry you must be feeling. Totally helpless. Please, let me try and help.
  4. How lucky for this boy to have found you. I am so sorry.
  5. SInce Beau has been on imuran he's had several funky things going on, mostly things skin related. I hope it's nothing serious.
  6. Shocked. I am so very sorry, Patti.
  7. We miss her horribly. She and her sister had been through so much to get to us. But they finally, after a few bloopers- made it.
  8. Beau is the only one of my hounds who takes Iverhart this due to his IBD but his is the unflavored and he is way less than 85 pounds. I did forward this to my vet. thanks My mistake- his is on heartgard unflavored. Just checked.
