Think I'll stop it till Monday. This only started late last night. That could have been from her drinking water. But today it was bad and the only place we went this morning was to the groomers.
I've read that this medicine works really well too.
is there a reason the food needs to be low in protien? Does she have liver issues? If not, any food you get that is low in protein is probably not going to be high quality. Only dogs with liver issues need a low protein diet. Vets usually dont' know a lot about nutrition- while you may want to stay away from Wellness, i would not go to a low protein diet at all.
