My question is whether we can put Happy on Milk Thistle or keep him on Denosyl tablets? Feeding tablets is a challenge for us
Check out Marin. It's milk thistle for dogs. It's very palatable, and my dog always readily ate it. Be careful with liquid milk thistles as they often times have a lot of alcohol in them. Denamarin is a combo of Marin and denosyl. I don't use them with my dog unless she flares up with a liver infection.

My dog Daisy has MVD. She ate Hill's L/D canned for a while and did ok. RC Hepatic made her sick. The other food you might consider is Purina HA - my dog did ok on that as well and it's low in fat. She mostly eats home cooked food. Her protein is at around 16% but as Ellie May said that depends on the specialist and the dog. My dog cannot eat meat of any kind nor fish of any kind. She can eat eggs and vegetarian sources of protein only.

Your specialist should be able to advise you about food or else just ask your vet. Personally, I wouldn't feed any of the foods you listed.
