I'm sorry to hear everyone's dog is ill or has PLE. I think my yorkie also has it right now and it's an uphill battle to keep him alive.
The vet originally prescribed salmon and sweet potato Hill's Prescription Diet d/d for skin/food allergies but my dog wouldn't eat it. So then I tried Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Low Fat Diet dry food a few days ago and he has gone downhill since eating it. I gave him about 12 kibbles mixed in with his rice/chicken and he ended up vomitting and diarrhea indoors that evening and has one downhill ever since.
What is the best food for lymphangiectasia with chronic diarrhea for months: hydrolized food or Gastrointestinal Low Fat?
How much difference is there in the Hill's d/d versus z/d food in terms of fat and protein content?
Ladyjane: You mentioned a 'novel protein', what is that?
I have also read that MCT oil or coconut oil is good for this disease. Is coconut oil (instead of MCT) okay to give the dog? |
