The daily recommended amounts listed on the bags of dog food are there bc dogs need specific minimum amounts of nutrients (proteins, fats, carbs, vitamins and minerals) to maintain life and health. As manufacturers products differ so much, bag#1 may provide 5 gms of protein in a cup, where bag#2 may only provide 3 gms/cup. The amount recommended to be fed is one of the things I do watch when buying dog food. I'm not saying it's not exagerrated, just saying it is there for a reason.
Some causes of chronic/recurring diarrhea: parasites, gastrointestinal disorders, food allergies, IBD, improper gut flora (after a course of antibiotics), bacterial infections, fungal infections, toxins, foreign body ingestion
Probiotics can help in most instances. |
