Until there is a proven diagnosis by test evidence, I see no reason not to give the dog a Prescription food for sensitive stomachs.
Is colitis not a real diagnosis, I thought it was but I could well be wrong.
Look forward to hearing what tests were done and what your vet suggests for future tests.
No, colitis is not a diagnosis. It is more of a symptom....

Perhaps this will help:

Diagnosis: IBD, lymphangectasia, cancer, EPI, ... plus many others... .. all needing testing, not just observation of symptoms
