Thank you everyone.
Well she turned the broth down today, so perhaps we're going with trying to steam some fish and see if the next batch is a bit better than the one I tried feeding last night.

I read the article, thank you. It's a distressing thought, but of course there was the possibility. Although her low protein could have been from not eating for two days prior and vomiting every few hours.
I learned something in that it takes 2-3 weeks for antigens to settle after a reaction. That's huge! It bothers me that it takes so long though to confirm a diagnosis of enteropathy. If the dog is not eating, or just doesn't want the recovery food, that seems too long to wait. Is there no testing besides biopsy that can determine the cause faster?

Thank you for all your well wishes. It's been a rough week, needless to say.
