| Sorry I've taken so long to respond! Thank you for all the info/tips!! I will try the yogurt, I've been feeding rice with a little of his food mixed in or he won't eat it (he eats wellness puppy). Today he also started shaking, I'm not sure if it's because it was cold today or if it's related to diarrhea? It's not constant but he's never done it before, he also stops shaking when I hold him close to me

| Did you try warming the id food in the microwave first? That brings out the flavor. Boiled chicken & rice? I've even heard of giving boiled beef and rice, but I don't remember ever having done so.

| Yes I've tried heating it, he won't eat it...and I was thinking of trying boiled chicken and rice but I know he won't touch the rice becaus I've tried giving him rice before. I will go to store soon and get chicken for him, the vet also told me to add plain nonfat yogurt as well so I will also try that!

| Just to update, for dinner tank took a couple small nibbles of boiled chicken, and wouldn't touch rice, still won't touch the I/D food, the only way I could trick him into eating was by mixing a tiny bit of Cesar's food (I refuse to use much of this because I don't think it's very good food in my opinion) but its what he ate when I got him so I knew he would eat some, so with that mixed in to boiled chicken he ate a decent amount, not normal amount though. And I also gave him a spoonful of nonfat plain yogurt....he is still periodically shaking, and still had diarrhea before dinner, which is of a yellowish color which is somewhat alarming too me know that I've done some research about pancreatitis...I never mentioned color to vet but she never asked and I didn't think to mention it, but he had diarrhea while he was in hospital and she told me they did a stool sample so I just assumed if anything was wrong she would have mentioned it...?

| He isn't shaking frequently, but he will do it randomly, he is still very active, and he actually just pooped and it was finally of normal consistency and color, I was so excited (never thought I'd be excited over my dogs poop!) lol, and I think he saw me get excited and he got all happy and ran around like he was celebrating too hahaha, too funny... He did eat a majority of his food but like I said I had to add in some Cesar's food to the boiled chicken to get him to eat most of it. I've done a bunch of research and saw that a few sites said boiled lean ground beef works as well? Has anyone tried this before? Because I think he would like that much better, he seems to be more of a beef guy...lol
