You are alwys such a great help and very informative. Here are the ingredients for the Innova Puppy :
Turkey, Chicken, Chicken Meal, Ground Barley, Ground Brown, Rice, Cottage Cheese, Tomatoes, Hemp Oil, Chicken Fat, Flaxseed, Whole Steamed Potatoes, Herring, Whole Raw Apples, Whole Raw Carrots, Alfalfa sprouts, Whole Eggs, Garlic, Dicalcium Phosphate, dl-Alpha Tocopherol, Vitamin C (Sodium Ascorbate), Probiotics & Vitamins/Minerals
I think it's IBD as well. Do I need the vet to test him for this when we go in or do they rely on symptoms to make a decision? If I do need to have him tested do I just tell her I want him tested for IBD or is there something specific I need to request. What do I feed him if is IBD anything certain? Right now I have Pumpkin and Rice tomorrow I am going to go out and get the Stuff you had recommended earlier.
There is also Potato in the Innova
so it could be both. As far as IBD goes, does it just come on suddenly or could the vomiting etc. he's had in the past been episodes as well? thanks again for all your help!
