Yes, there is one that can be given....I gave it to one of my pups. I completely forgot about that. The specialist sent it home with him. DUh....there is one for dogs that is exactly the same as the human one...I just cannot remember the name. Shellie, since this is a specialty place, they really should be able to advise you on this. Maybe they dont have a nutritionist? Another idea is to look around on PetDiets - VNC putting your pet's health first .. for more than 20 yrs! and if you don't see anything, ask a question..there is a link for Ask the Nutritionist. She is a board certified vet nutritionist and is great about answering questions that are submitted!
