For treats I choose ones with fish, sweet potato or fruit, and I also home bake oatmeal based treats. He eats plain oatmeal now and again for a treat as well. Oatmeal is soothing for the intestine.
Turns out he probably has IBD but a definite diagnosis can't be made without a biopsy. |
i believe its welness simple solution duck and rice; not potato. these are good suggestion adding enzymes and probiotic will help.
my dog has severe chronic ibd and i tried all king of dog foods; and she couldnt' tolerate any. she did great on homemade ground turkey and oatmeal. i fed that for months; and recently i switched to aunt jeni's raw food. you are supposed to feed it raw however i cooked it slightly and add oatmeal. so far so good. i also give the ark natural green granules and animal essentials plant enzyme and probiotics. and what really made a difference is seacure. this helped heal her GI. good luck
