Default thank you, thank you, thanks you!!

Words alone cannot express how much me and my Angel appreciate all of your imput, concern and advice. I did have a stool sample and it came back negative. I did give her Metronidazole for 7 days and Famtidine. But diarrhea persisted. However vomiting stopped and no more bloody stool. What stopped the diarrhea? I added a little sweet potato and probiotics to her chicken and rice. Then when she was a bit better, I added a little raw grated carrot. I am now getting normal looking stools. The vet has kept in close contact with me and advised me that I can start Heartworm meds soon but to hold off on other things right now. She said my dog is very delicate. I heard the 2lb and 3lb yorkies were very delicate. I thought the 5lb - 6lb yorkies were healhier. I once had a 5 1/2lb boy yorkie... many years ago. His name was Carlen's Sonny Dae. He was from a show breeder and sturdier and very healthy most of his life. I never had this problem with him. He ate mostly homecooked food. I don't know if the wellness kibble was the problem or the organic cooked soft boiled egg I gave her. I am just happy I can breathe a bit and am praying her stools stay normal. The vet told me not to give her a vitamin supplement due to her sensitive stomach and to continue with the home cooked diet for a bit.
