We had to take her to her first vet today, nothing was available. I will say that the doctor doesn't screw around, and is a blunt person. He asked to be given a chance to get to the bottom of her issues, and then told me to eliminate everything but I/D and try adding them back in. I only give her nilla wafers- ground peanuts i grind myself for " peanut butter" (for her meds) Boiled food with hte additives the vet book has for the recipe, Fromms and I/D. Then the bully stick. We know for a fact the ears ae okay, and prob'ly because they usually only last for a day and a half. So, it won't take long to figure it out, if it's not salmonella from the stick.

I have Crohn's like I've stated. Bright red blood has never happened-internal, yes, bright red, no. Does Teddy ever get that, or has he ever had it? It wasn't a lot, but even two spots are enough for me to get upset for her.
Teddy has never had blood in his stool. Max had a couple drops once when I tried switching him to a really high protein kibble that did not agree with him.

Bone chews -- if she is swallowing part of the lamb's ear, that could be an irritant. Definitely stay away from pig's ear (the worst for dogs with gastro issues), and I would skip the bully sticks. They all have coatings on them that can be bad for dogs with gastro problems.

I would also skip the peanut butter/crushed peanuts. Both peanut butter and carrots (mashed) give my guys tummy problems, even the smallest amounts.
