YT 2000 Club Member | Dog Very wise advice about our dog foods. I wish more people would choose carefully when they buy dog food. There are so many choices. |

YT 2000 Club Member | Dog food Very well written. You are right. I am calling the vet. Still soft mushy stool. Going on too long. This other vet hopefully will have other suggestions. One vet said give pumpkin. I gave a little and daisy threw it up at night. |

Would it be helpful if you listed what she has tried in the past and what she's eating now...? Also, has she ever had firm poos...? Has she ever had any health issues that included GI issues as a symptom?

YT 2000 Club Member | Dog food Both yorkies were eating wellness turkey and oatmeal.I called the other vet who treats more aggressively. Both dogs are back on the metroconizole on a paste probiotic and also being treated for worms. So we will see. I asked for a food recommendation and she said use a low fat over the counter food, now I wait pray and keep cooking chicken and rice. Thank you Yorkie lovers for all your help. |

Have they ever had giardia? Personally, I would get them off all poultry asap.

YT 2000 Club Member | Dogfood They are not related. Jojo is 4yrs and daisy will be 5 soon. So strange they both are having the same-issue. Must be something they ate. Just don't know. Hope the med they are getting will help. I rescued Daisy. She was a yard dog no attention. I agree with the poultry elimination. Will try a different food base. |

It was the "senior" that has filler (corn hulls) designed to pass through the dog without being digested that had my knickers in a twist because it is meant to be fed daily. There are other lower cal foods that aren't filled with cancer-ausing garbage that I prefer to feed. I can see using it on a temporary basis for weight loss, but I would not put a dog on it for her daily diet for the rest of her life. | |

| It is not my opinion. It is a FACT that one of the ingredients contained in the food causes cancer in lab animals. I highly doubt this food would save any dog's life as it isn't prescribed as a life-saving food. |

YT 2000 Club Member | Dog food Here's the latest. Called the other vet. She has them back on the metro on a probistic and on a parasite med. Jojo has very mushy stool . Daisy too. My daughter, Lisa is a registered nurse. She said oh mom you are overmedicating those dogs. Take them off those drugs give them just chicken and rice and the probiotic. Only 3 more days on the parasite med. I trust thevet. She is aggressive but I can't get this poop right. You are all so helpful. Thank you! |
