Ya gotta do what ya gotta do!

Glad to hear Chelsea is feeling better.

When I first started giving green beans as treats, I didn't realize I should only give them one or two at a time. I passed them out like candy and then my whole herd had the runs the next day. I learned my lesson real fast on that one.

Knox had it a lot before I started on premium grain free good. My vet had me feeding him science diet. He had a huge one stuck in his butt, and I had to rush him to the doctor. He was absolutely miserable. She still didn't wan't to change his diet. Ughh.

Here's what another vet told me. 100 Percent Pumpkin, not pie filling, works well. Also, pour the broth from chicken noodle soup over her dog food for a few days.
