Make sure she doesn't get fat. I have an older Yorkie that lost all of his protein in his system and he blew up like a balloon. With the protein problem she could develop stones. Toby did and had to have an emergency operation to remove them. The drugs Toby had to take are as follows. Polycitrate crystals mixed in his food to prevent stones. Prednisone to make sure he doesn't blow up and he's been on it for 8 or so years now. This is the best stuff. Get body building oil called MCT. Its cheap. Use a cap full mixed in her food. Ask your vet about this option. Oh ya, also Toby was switched to Medi-Cal diet. Now he had to be switched again to Royal Canin low protein diet. Hopefully this will give you some help to ask your vet. Also how old is she? Toby first got his problem when he was around 8 I think. |
