I was so worried at how I was going to manage their food...but before I could blink Paxton gobbled up a whole bowl of Canidae with a little RC puppy....what was really weird he seemed to be okay for 5 days...solid poops no gastric noises. I probably did the wrong thing by just ending the Bill Jack thinking we were okay since he had hard poops. Gosh I feel soooo horrible putting him through this! The scary thing is he is not getting better on his meds and with boiled chicken/rice. Please tell me where I can get a probiotic supplement or what kind you can recommend? He is right next to me by my feet playing with Cricket having a ball.  I love this little guy so much I would have a hole in my heart if something happened to him!!!!! |
Wylie's Mom and Sophie Sophia have given great advise. I agree with Wylie's Mom about giardia being hard to diagnose.
http://revivalanimal.com/ has some wonderful products. You can call 1-800-786-4751 to order a catalog. They have Probios, BeneBac Pet Gel and many other must have products. I also keep Diarsanyl on hand, it works great for diarrhea and bacterial stomach upsets.
Do your dogs go outside? If he does not have giardia then you have to look around to see if he could be getting some bad bacteria from other sources. Make sure he does not have access to bird dropping or stagnate water.
Bil-Jac is a corn based dog food. Often switching from a corn based dog food to a premium dog food (no corn) the dogs will get soft stools for awhile. Canidae is a very good dog food. I know it is difficult feeding dogs when to have to feed different types of food to different dogs. It would be better if you could get them all on Canidae. If he keeps getting food that he is not used to eating that in itself can cause stomach upsets.
