One thing I did for one of my girls whose poop was always soft is about a month of metronidazole with Metamucil added to her food. Sounded crazy to add fiber, but it worked. Somehow that slowed down her gut and allowed her system to regulate. Hugs to the babies. |
Hi Susan! Nice to see you here! I only give them spring, bottled water. I called Merrick yesterday and they said the kibble I am feeding them has had no changes. right now they are on Iams low residue with NOTHING else. they ate it yesterday but, the girls aren't too happy with it today. Bentley eats anything! LOL. they also added panacur to the mix along with the metronidzole...I also give them 1/4 of pepcid a day...the metro was upsetting their bellies...It's never ending!!! I washed (with bleach) and steamed all my floors. They pups haven't been outside since we were on vaca...I just want this over with!
They also have a bacteria in their intestines. My vet seems to think this caused more from the bacteria than giardia
