I personally saw an online person do that for a couple of years and the dog ended up to be a case that was not operable because of the delay. Very sad when things like that happen.

I am not one to diagnose NOR suggest any diets and/or treatments for people's dogs online. I can only suggest that they consult with the best and that would be boarded internists.

Best wishes to you and your pup.
Thank you very much! I agree that these dietary cures seem a little too good to be true? We are now planning further evaluation at a veterinary college after we get him stabilized. He also has classic symptoms of MVD too so who knows what he has for sure. Only the experts can tell.
