Sorry to hear about Mya's digestive issues. I know oh-so-well with my Scottie all about it!
Each time she has diarrhea, have you tried something like Fortiflora to support and calm down her guts? Have you tried feeding a tsp of 100% pure canned pumpkin daily? Is Mya on any digestive supplements?
I don't use the kibble you mentioned. Mine are currently on Fromm, which has tiny bites sized pieces. I'd say that if you're feeding dried kibble again (vs the canned), it's helpful to soak it in water first so that it's easier to digest, therefore not upsetting the stomach as much. I'd definitely stay away from treats too!
