Thanks for the advice, but sadly i have tried almost all of that to no avail. lol hes on a limited ingredient diet now, and after trying several foods, i do think he has sensitivites to some things but no specific allergies as the cause for the problem. some things, like these TINY liver treats i have make him regurgitate instantly lol this food is working well for him cuz it has no grains or anything in it..the only thing is that this food makes him eat poop i have to REALLY watch him to prevent it which is impossible. he never had that prob with any other foods that i recall..just this one, but he eats the food better. also i was blending his food,but after the diagnosis of strictures i changed to wet food which i add water to so he can eat better, and i can save time (plus the wet food is better cuz hes missing teeth lol)
My vet said not allergy cuz we tried so many things, and i have since moved from apt to a house, so everything has changed. i dont use any insecticides, air fresheners, or anything bc i once thought it may be the cause, but it was not that easy
and i use a random shampoo, but i have changed it once and he had problems with both..so its not environmental.

The vet said that he has a stricture or 2 causing the problems, and now i have to find out what the purdue vets suggest since they are experienced with such things. what i read makes this diagnosis sound horrible, bc theres no cure...but i will find out from my vet for sure what timmys situation would entail and if its worth the money to try to fix it, or if i should just maintain it like i have been since hes not in any pain or anything.
