Wow, I'm sorry my thread has disturbed you so much. I never said I will be giving him a digestible chew that is going to harm him. I have consulted with a vet on EVERYTHING I have been giving him. I have been listening to what everyone in this thread with experience has to say. He has had ZERO treats and zero chews. He has strictly been eating RX kibble and RX canned food. That's it. I have been watching him like a hawk, I have made strict rules for family members who share this household with us. And my vet said BLAND CHICKEN WAS FINE!

Why is having some kind of chew important (I never said it HAD to be digestible)... because I think it's safer for him to have a dog chew than eating whatever else he gets his mouth on because he doesn't have anything proper to chew on.

He IS eating the kibble. Sorry you think that I am a terrible owner and it's all me. I clearly realize the seriousness of this illness or this thread would not be 31 pages long and I would not be willing to learn and ask questions or be spending $1000's of dollars on my beloved pet. He is lucky he has an owner like me who does care about his health and well-being. A lot of other owners wouldn't have even taken their dog into the vet for vomiting.

I found your last 2 posts offensive to me as a loving dog parent who is getting accustomed to a total lifestyle change. I am LEARNING and taking everything in. Thanks for judging me.
