A bland diet is 50% rice and 50% chicken.
I'd do it for a month. I would not add anything to it, except water.
The rice should be very well cooked - I'd use brown, but that's a preference.
I'd do white meat chicken roasted and skinless with all fat removed. I would never boil meat of any kind.
I'd do the fecal profile in its entirety on BOTH dogs.
I'd do the metro, the cerenia and probably add Pepcid AC.
If I did not see any improvement in one weeks time doing the above, I'd drop the vet.
NOTE: if your dog has a chicken sensitivity, I'd ask the vet what you can sub for chicken.
