One of my friends told me last night about it but she did not know the name. She did say that people complain that it tastes icky??? I am definitely going to ask the specialist about it...thanks so much!!
The thing is, I have multiple pups and not sure all would be happy with this...or that it would be ok for them. I don't know. I am also thinking maybe I should give her canned food mixed with her kibble...or all canned. That would give her more water and maybe she would not feel thirsty as much and have to stand at the water bowl for so long to get it down.
She is the sweetest little thing...it bothers me so much that she has this...I just hope it does not get worse.
