Poor Bentley. It is so sad when they chew themselves. Sending healing prayers for Bentley. Are you giving him any acidophilus to help with the balance of his stomach? I give Buster Jarrow Acidophilus every day just to keep everything regular and double the dose when he is on antibiotics.
"Acidophilus can help protect the body against harmful bacteria, parasites, and other organisms. As it breaks down, it releases things such as
hydrogen peroxide that create a toxic environment for unhealthy creatures in the body, helping to drive them out. It also plays an important role in digestion, helping to produce a number of chemicals which aid in the digestion process.Many alternative modalities of healing look to acidophilus for a wide range of health benefits. In addition to basic digestive assistance, acidophilus is thought to help bolster the immune system as a whole. It is also thought to provide some relief from intestinal problems, such as diarrhea.Because antibiotics kill the so-called
probiotics, such as acidophilus, as well as harmful bacteria, many people feel that an
antibiotic regime can lead to outbreaks of numerous problems, including yeast infections. It is recommended by many to take supplements of acidophilus"
