RobinM Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 DHs after work update! Beau ate 2 cups of kibble. YAY. No pukey when DH came home from work. double yay. So that is 2 3/4 cups of kibble w/chicky rice mix. I will get more in him later (late dinner for him). Can you say relieved? Beau Beau is my little boy and I get CRAZY when he is not right.

MerlinsMum Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 That's wonderful news, Robin!! :yay Yay for Beau. This sounds like a definite sign that he is improving and feeling better.

RobinM Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 Another cup at dinnertime. so far he has had 3 3/4 cups. That's more than he usuallly got but this garbage (I-D, Sorry, I don;t like the ingredients) he needs more of it and he has lost weight so we are trying to put weight on him while keeping it bland. Tonight instead of boiled chicken, he had grilled chicken. he approves. Chloe and Teddy are hanging around together almost whispering "what is it about those white dogs with the spots on them, they get all the good stuff". Poor puppies!

I am sure their mum will find a way to spoil them later! I know what you mean about the ID food. I feel the same about the Purina Pro Plan I've had to put Merlin on. But hey - he has firm poops now, and after the last two weeks I will do whatever works! One day at a time. Beau seems to be coming out the other side of his stomach woes... hooray!

I like it, they liked it and I'm still not 100% sure it;s the food. When everything is settled and he's eating normally ( and I use those words loosely) I will add in PP and see if it's the food. One gurgly tummy and we are off it for good. He's been on pro plan for over 2 years BUT I did switch recently (3 months or so) to sensitive stomach.

MerlinsMum Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 So you're thinking it might have been the PPP Sensitive Skin and Stomach formula? Did he have good poops on it at first?

RobinM Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 Beau has never had good poops. Always start out OK but end up runny. Pudding like. Sorry to be so descriptive. So, he was on PP chicky and rice for 2 + years and I decided to try the PP sensitive. that's when things when south. It could be coinincidence, I just don't know.

MerlinsMum Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 That's right, now I remember you mentioning that Beau's poops were never firm. As far as being descriptive about dog poop... one can never be too detailed as far as I'm concerned! I am usually the one who starts all the "healthy dog poop" conversations at playgroup!

Guest SoulsMom Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have to agree with both of you. I hate the contents of the I/D, but Soul's poops are firm, no gurgly tummy, and NO BLOOD. So I guess I'll have to 'get over it' I started trying to get him back on his grain free diet for the Lupus, but the poops got sloppy again when I got him up to half I/D and half his regular kibble. Don't worry, when Soul was so sick I called it 'pudding poo' So glad to hear Beau is doing better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
