I don't think it is that 10 days after the shots. It could be, but not likely. If you are unsure and it continues, talk to the vet. Two tsp. is plenty. Ellie had soft stool this morning and she went too much, so she is on Pedialye right now (about a tsp. or less every 2 or so hours).

| well i had a loss-sleep night again... Murphy still has the runs but its changrd back to browny color, as he is eating alittle. no vomit, but i am giving him alittle boiled chicken and rice and he seemed to like that. His little butt is so red and raw looking, someone told me to put cornstrach on it, not talc but the kind you use for cooking. I feel bad that he is going through this. He is pee pad trained but i notice when he is not feeling good, he goes anywhere right there. I keep my handy towel and spray by me, hanging off my side, like a cowboy ..LOL .... Thank you all for the support and the advice, I have been on this site since last fall, because Murphy was always a sick little guy when he was younger. People on herre are wonderful, and I am glad to have found it. Thankyou all again for the support

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Well hopefully it will continue to go back to more normal. When mine have a sore but from diahrrea I put a little vaseline on it and it helps real quick.

So, I don't think there is necessarily a sensitivity here to high protein - but it sounds exactly like the one I've been hearing about high fat in relation to EVO. There are plenty of regular fat, higher protein, grain free kibbles/canned out there - is that what you're looking for? If so, go here and browse around the 6-star foods (and a few 5 stars): http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_f...iews/index.php As for the raw butt, put some hydrocortisone cream and/or antibiotic cream or diaper rash cream - that will soothe and reduce some inflammation. If the diarrhea continues, I'd get him off the chicken and rice asap - and instead go to store, get canned (or fresh if you have time) sliced white potatoes. Micro a can or 2 - mash up, add a bit of butter and salt - feed this instead for a day or 2 until he firms up.

The specialist says we need to feed low fat and high fiber. The only thing she is eating is Wellness wgt mgt - it has 6-10% fat and 8 % fiber. I also started last week adding fiber to her food 2 x's a day- 1/4 teas of Konsyl fiber supp. vet said it was ok. She is getting a retest for her upc in 2 wks then we are off to see a nutritionist/holistic vet because this diarrhea and high lipase/amylase values have been going on long enough and I am tired of the runny poo. i don't mind cleaning it up at all- that's not what I mean- I am just tired of seeing her not poo normal. That means it's a problem and I want her to start pooing normal! She is not vomiting but I am having such a hard time with trying to figure out "what to feed" in the mean time before getting in to see the vet about nutrition. SHe has high lipase and amylase values- her last labs from a week ago were: Amylase: 1346 (normal range is 290-1125) Lipase: 1236 (normal range is 77-695) I don't know if I should start feeding raw or what to feed her. The wellness is great food but it is not great for her with the issues she has. we are currenty dealing with protien in the urine due to kidney issues. High bun (60) and she is passing gas today too and it is so smelly. I can tell her tummy doesn't feel good. she is playful and all but the passing of gas and little toots i have heard her let out I know her tummy doesn't feel good. I have read about the canned pumpkin but I scared to try it. will the canned pumpkin make things worse with the pancreatis issues? Will pepcid ac or tums help her? I can't see how the fiber supp we just started her on could cause diarr? Last edited by sadiesamie; 04-05-2008 at 12:51 PM. | |
