I hate it when these little ones are sick. I hope Ellie finds the strength to get better.

LOLLLL I say the same thing lol Hey you only have one - try having THREE lolll

How is Ellie doing now? I have been at work all day so just wanted to pop in and see how she is doing

Ellie is doing well.
She is holding down food, etc.

Just waiting for her piggy pancreas to arrive and now I'm looking into making Tylan capsules instead of forcing the powder down her as is.

yeah for Ellie you are one tough chick

I have a site for capsule maker as you need the tiny capsules too - if you want to go the cheap route then you can poke a hole in bottom of styrofoam cup and place the capsules in the hole to make them stay then use one of those tiny funnels to put powder in. Wear gloves as it is not suppose to get on your hands as can cause a rash. This is how i was told to do it and the hospital even gave me the styrofoam cup. I never had to use it as the probiotics worked but this is how they taught me.

I will go get the link to the maker though as cyndi (izzyprincess) on here uses it and she just sent me the link for someone else

dwerten · 06-20-2010, 05:43 AM

Have you ever doubled up on her probiotics when she has a bad bout of diarhea as dd had a bad one day before yesterday and I doubled up on probiotics and today and yesterday pooped perfect poop.

Glad to hear Ellie is doing better

dwerten · 06-20-2010, 05:55 AM

i just checked my bag of capsules from hospital and it is torpac but the size is #4 and it says .21ml so you may want to ask if they have them that small still and maybe not on website

I know cyndi uses the 5 as that is the info she gave me below but those are probably bigger. Izzy is only 3.5lbs I think so it works for her

Ellie May · 06-20-2010, 06:20 AM

Thank you.

Teh larger the number, the smaller the capsule.
5's are very hard to find... They are best for small dogs if enough of the drug fits in them. 3's and 4's are sometimes used.

I am looking at the vegetarian ones since the gelatin/beef ones don't seem entirley healthy to me.

Looked at this company and liked it, but they don't show prices and I was too afraid to ask. lol

It's hard to find a supplier that is safe and trusted that will sell to individuals.

Don't really want to spend the money on a maker unless I can get it for realllly cheap, so may end up filling them by hand. I've gotten Tylan on my hands and used to breathe in the dust from it all the time while dosing in. Fun, fun.

dwerten · 06-20-2010, 06:29 AM

duh you are right need some coffee lolll wish dh would wake up lolllllll or I am going to starbucks. HE only makes the best coffee according to him lol the 5 would be smaller

I do not think it was that much let me check with her - you have to call to make the order - the specialty hospital i go to is who gave this stuff to me so hoping a good company and izzy has had alot of issues like ellie so i think it would be safe
