I'm so sorry he's sick. I don't agree about watching this level of illness at home and prefer then in the hospital on an IV. Last time I fed hepatic, that's exactly where Daisy was - profuse gastritis and on an IV. You could try Purina HA or do a nutrition consult for a home cooked. IMO few foods are really appropriate for these dogs and even with the best diets they flare. I couldn't agree more about bad breeding. Every day I administer anticonvulsant medication to the sweetest little bizarre dog. He came not only with epilepsy but with other issues. I look at it this way -- he's the dog he is with a predetermined set of cards. He's much better off with me than with someone else. Keep that in mind that yours is better off with you than with someone else. I'll keep him and you in my prayers.
