I also put him on Angel Eyes (my vet said it would be fine to go through the bottle and see if that stopped it). Four days into the diet change/Angel Eyes and the tears/gunk have completely disappeared. I shouldn't have made so many changes at a time because I know I will not know what effected him but oh well.
Anyway, I can understand people's concerns with the low grade antibiotic but it was getting so bad I am sure it was really uncomfortable for him. Hopefully it will resolve and he will go back to the way he was! Looks great now! |
Why don't they make puppy foods with fish??? Grrrrrr! I guess we'll stick out the California Natural Chicken and Rice until she's older. *sigh California Natural makes a Herring a Sweet Potato adult food that I'll try when she's a bit older if she's still struggling with the tears. I've also thought about going grain-free after she's 1 yr. old (I read somewhere that there is too much calcium [and protein??] for puppies, especially large breed puppies, so it's best to wait and use it as an adult food only). I was thinking that grain-free is probably better for her and possibly would help with the tearing too--looks like Wellness CORE has a Ocean variety that might be good. Anyone know of any other grain-frees that are fish? (OR, puppy foods that are fish even...I haven't been able to find any so far??)
