But she can't be on that for long because it's way too low in protein.

I saw a link to a nutritionist..Dr. Susan Davis I think..in another thread. I'm just wondering if I ought to consult a nutritionist. Or do any of you have holistic nutritionists that do phone consults?
Michele - I haven't read all the way through your thread yet, but I have consulted with Susan Davis and she is fabulous. I also had a in-person consult back in November when we were in San Diego. She is fabulous and really knows her stuff. She also has great supplements she recommends.

Sissy was diagnosed with very early PLE because of low Cobalamine, high TLI and high Folate levels. She has been on weekly B12 shots since then along with a tweaked diet and several supplements, BioLiv being among them. Susan suggests that any dog showing a compromised immune system of any kind also has an underlying liver issues - even if bloodwork is normal. She is also on the AskAriel probiotic and Vitamineral Green. She gets re-tested this Friday, so we'll see how she is doing. BTW - she had NO symptoms.....
