3DogNite Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I have been feeding grain free for a while now... then due to some diarrhea issues, I recently switched to the all powerful Iams Green bag! after 2 weeks of solid poops everyone is happy except spirit who is now showing signs of incontinence... Is this a coincidence? should i find a grain free they all can eat with no adverse reactions,, either with pee or poop --- thanks! what we would all give for a magic wand,,, i need an emoti that sprinkles fairy dust!

MaryJane Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Might just be a coincidence so I would probably first suspect a UTI rather than the food. Get a urinalysis with a culture to check. If you went from IAMs to a grain free that had a higher level of protein, then I might suspect the food..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LindsaySF Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'd rule out UTI or another medical cause before suspecting the food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest barkdogs Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Lots of carbs can contribute to UTIs, so if it becomes chronic, the grain might be an issue. Is Spirit a male or female dog? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
