| I've heard the pure pumpkin works too. I haven't had to use it but have it on hand, just in case. Good luck and please keep us updates on how things are going. Sending prayers!

| I use Bactaquin for Katie I originally got it from Dr. Fosters and Smith free when I purchased Cosequin, but now I get it from Costco.com. At the moment, its no longer available there. There are many other effective probiotics to buy that are more cost effective than FortiFlora. I've read on this forum that Dogzymes Probiotics Max are good.

| If you can, try to find a better probiotic...forti flora contains 'animal digest' which can come from rendered dead/ dying/ diseased/ disabled animals (4-D's).
