i do not like metamucil much prefer pumpkin and probiotics in dogs so i would ask the vet about metamucil before doing
I will ask our vet when I talk to her tomorrow. She has had blood work done 3 times now and no mention of ALT. I don't know what that is. It is possible that it was high and since no one was looking for it, it was skipped. Candy is about 18 months old, possibly a little older but I don't think she is 2 yet, I would have to look her birthdate up to be sure. Pumpkin would work naturally but would it work as fast as the metamucil? I sure will ask my vet before using. Thanks, Sylvia
