It sounds like she's gone through a lot of food changes recently and her body is probably pretty confused right now. If I were in your shoes, I would maybe stick with the most recent one you tried or the one she had the least amount of issues with and let her get used to it for awhile and give her tummy some time to settle down. Maybe give her a little canned pumpkin/rice with her food and slowly wean her off of that mixture to just the kibble while her stools get better. |
Thanks - the diarrhea gets pretty intense though, so that's why I've been too afraid to keep going and give the new food time. I agree there's alot of changes. i have been giving only boiled chicken with white rice slurry and canned pumkin for about 4 or 5 days straight and she was 100% back to normal. Only then I tried incorperating the new food slowly, but even that little bit, one time gave her diarrhea today - perrty good too, not just soft stool. Back to chicken/rice and pumpkin we go and start over
