Not to sound rude at all, but is your vet really doing anything to help her other than continually probing her to poop? I mean I don't know much about dogs and their digestive systems, but constantly probing and cleaning the anal sacs sounds like it's doing more harm than good. and why can't the vet figure out what's causing her to bloat up to begin with, shouldn't he be smart enough to know what to feed her and what's actually causing the bloat instead of letting you come in every day for manual poop probing?? maybe i'm not reading this right or something... but personally i'd see a new vet that could fix this problem and not just keep forcing her to poop over and over.
also i feed a home made diet that was formulated by my aunt's mom whose hobby is dog nutrition...maybe you could see a nutritionist and have them formulate a diet just for your dog without the allergens and that would be balanced and healthy. it might not always be the turkey, (probably is) but it could be something else in the kibble that's making her sick.
if you want my Raw recipe i'll gladly share it, but it looks like your dog is allergic to some of the ingredients so i don't think it will help..
good luck on all this..hope you find out what to feed and stop her bloating soon and hope she feels better real soon |
I agree with this here and sadly vets do not know alot about nutrition
