Good post.

Yes, it's okay to help people online.
Yes, it's okay to give suggestions and say it may be this or it may not be that.
It's okay to say perhaps a different food is needed, etc.

It's (IMO) not okay to say the vet is totally wrong and you should do XYZ. If you think the vet is totally wrong, then things should not be changed based on what you read online. The information on line should be taken to the vet or another vet and they will help you sort thorugh it.

With all the great information I've found online, there are so many inaccuracies. It's scary to think that people take the information without even talking tho their vet about it.
