*for her weight, I broke it down into Tablespoon measurements to make it easy, these are measurements for the WHOLE day, so you can divide by 2 if feeding 2x per day:
6T of fish
4T of potato
2T of green beans (actually, I do recommend frozen over canned here)
then, adjust per weight; keep in mind fish is very lean (hence, the volume)

*When homecooking, you MUST supplement with calcium - I used to make mine from egg shells (I used to use a shells from a dozen, put them on baking sheet, bake for 10 mins at 350, grind in my coffee grinder to a powder and give about 2/3rds of 1/8th of a teaspoon, a "pinch"); you can also purchase calcium easily at Pet stores (comes in powder) by Solid Gold and other brands (also called "bone meal")

Does this all sound doable? This is really the best for her right now - having these few ingredients, clean/easy protein could really get her straightened out.

This sounds very doable, honestly at this point I'm willing to do anything to get her healthy. As for the probiotics and the yeast I think I will purchase the "yeast package" from the website, rather then take her to the vet. Also concerning the yeast, I've heard alot about "Dinovite" being a probiotic. I belive this is what they claim on thier website. do you have an opinion on it?

Thanks for all of your help.
