It sound like you have been through all this with Sammy. May I ask how he is doing? Thank you for your help and prayers. It is a tough thing to go through for sure.
I have had Zoey on a homemade diet but I do not feel that it is good for the long haul since it has so little in it. I have her on a daily vitamin. I just started her on the Hill's K/D. She has such a finicky stomach I hope that it works for her. I have always been told about grain free diets and followed that and now the K/D has corn in it
But if that is what is good for her I guess I will keep her on it as long as she will eat it. I have not tried the Pepcid or Maalox. i would like to know more about it though. Any information is appreciated!
