Also I use probiotics in my one dog with allergies and it does help ibd dogs as well and is safe. I just got a pm from someone I helped on here yesterday that I helped a while ago and she had taken her dog to vet and once off antibiotics diarrhea came back. She switched off chicken food and diarhea stopped and she was so happy and thanked me for mentioning it. It is worth a shot but i would strongly advise the probiotics as well. Colitis can be tricky as sometimes it can be hard to get rid of. A dog can eat a food for many years and get an intolerance to it as well.
Stress can also cause colitis so is there any major changes going on before changing over food?
here is info Colitis in Dogs
It can also be triggered by a medication such as nsaid as well so have any meds been given? |
I am the one Dwerten helped. Chicken was his culprit. I have been feeding him Natures Recipe Lamb and Rice and the canned food Natures Recipe, lamb and salmon. I also bake him tilipia fish. He has been doing fine. Every now and then he has a flare up if he eats from my other furbabies plate. I would start with eliminating chicken first and see if that helps. Thanks Dwerten for helping me
