Had she been treated with a course of antibiotics at all since the liver issue was discovered? Is she exhibiting any signs of Urinary Tract Infection? Increased urination, increased water consumption?
No she is not on anything other than Lactulose. I have heard of Milk Thistle but have not started her on that yet. I regulate her lactulose on the frequency of stool, consistency. Yes I put the Lactulose in her food- I just recently started to give it to her with small amts of sweet potato or cottage cheese to make sure she is getting it all in. Lactulose- I give twice daily. No, I don't have her on any probiotics- No antibiotics since dx- they talked about that in the future if needed- but didn't want to change anything at this time. Not any signs of UTI that I see? She has infrequently gotten into my golden retrievers food= which is purina pro plan sensitive skin and stomach- just noticed recently but is salmon.
