She is back on probiotics and i am going to put her back on coconut oil after her blood work then i may just have to do the liver cleansing diet as i think soy may not be heling the situation although dex has a ton of hair and no hairloss on his nose and he is on purina ha too but i think he has a healthier body as all he had was the ibd and pancreatitis and dd is a total mess  |
No thyroid problems. Hasn't been checked recently, so thought about running some bloodwork. But her vet is thinking no.

TJ is a BIG time nose licker and he has OCD where he sticks his nose into blankets and pillows, etc. to snort in air. He has to do his snorting everynight before bed. So I was thinking between the licking on his nose and the snorting may be contributing to the hair loss, but when I started to see his brown nose fading, etc...I now think something just isn't right  |
She doesn't really lick it. She rubs her face in the furniture all the time. The vet is wondering if she is pulling it out that way, but it's too even for that...

Yes homecooked. It was balanced by a veterinary nutritionist. I changed something around a few months back, but I think it still should have been balanced. For the last months...totally unbalanced. It has to be reformulated b/c of pancreatitis. I was waiitng on something and couldn't really do it sooner.
